First, the car sounds INSANE. In a good way, of course. I've never heard the SS version in person (or any other brand exhaust), but I can't imagine anything sounding better than this.

Second, I had concerns that I would lose power vs. the stock Nismo exhaust. I haven't dynoed the vehicle, but it felt faster and not just at the high end. I left the negative terminal of the battery off during the install hopefully my ECU is already learning to deal with its newfound respiratory abilities.

Third, the carbon fiber cans look fantastic. I think most untrained eyes won't even notice them because the dark color gives them kind of a stealth effect... but so far, those who have are unanimously in love w/ the CF look.

I also have Berk HFCs, so that should be taken into account... but the new addition of the exhaust has made me fall back in love with my car once again.
