so are you planning to use your XYZ with AAM stuff? doesn't that XYZ run dual into a single 3"? how do you figure to hook up any AAM products when they are duals and 2.5"?

maybe i miss read and you want to drop the XYZ.

Yeah, the XYZ won't work with the AAM midpipe. So ill have to decide on which one I go with, not both. For the hassle of selling the XYZ and more than likely taking a hit on it I'll probably just hold out for the Tanabe. I just wanted to see if anybody had ventured into the territory I was contemplating.

technically..............i know a way you can go with AAM and keep your XYZ

i don't think it's offered yet but it does exist. AAM has a in development single exit exhaust. would probably work with your XYZ single point connection but i didn't actually all the way under a friends car to see how that part joined up. mostly checked out the rear section and the back of the mid pipe.

That would be amazing! Do you have any contacts at AAM or maybe your friend does? I would definitely be interested in getting more info on that.

in case it was still supposed to be a secret i didn't tell you

i haven't talked to anyone down there lately but i'm sure if you call and just say you heard/saw it at zdayz on the red Z with AAM stickers on it lol it is my friends car he was doing the testing for the prototype.

don't remember the diameter but its single exhaust with a titanium muffler. think there was a midpipe muffler/resonator as well.

Lol, no worries I won't give up the identity of the little birdy that gave me the inside scoop. I know you don't know the diameter but was it a single exhaust with a dual tip muffler, or single exhaust with a single muffler tip?

My current set up: Art pipes, XYZ Y-pipe, S-tune mid, stock muffler. The tone is low rumble when cruising and not obnoxiously loud or ricey. Has a slight bit of rasps at WOT which I think it's the crappy stock muffler so I'm switching out to a nismo muffler soon. I plan to pick up a Meistershaft mid this summer to increase the volume some more.

the muffler was single can with single tip that came out on the left side of the rear bumper. pretty much stock location of the left tip but with a slight upward angle.

let me see if i can find the video from zdayz exhaust comp. he was 2 cars ahead of me.

Ahh, dang it. I definitely want a dual tip muffler. Maybe the midpipe from this could still work out though. Let me know if you find that video.
