Remote-controlled exhaust valves

German tuner Cobra Technology and Lifestyle has developed a range of aesthetic and performance parts for the Nissan 370Z coupe and roadster. One of them is an exhaust with a remote-controlled butterfly valve that allows the driver to control how loud it bellows. Delivering the same kind of effect you'd get by revving an Aston above 4,500 rpm, you can buy 120-mm pipes with a flap that ranges from "discrete sportiness to pure racing sound."

You can check it the sound range in the video after the jump. Even with the flaps open it doesn't seem bad at all, but it might still come in handy for those hamlets where any kind of loud noise is a no-no.

This looks dope and that Z sounds means!

Yes please. I actually like the difference in tone.

Didn't we just talk about this a few days ago?

Weak. I responded to a repost.

Same as the armytrix, hopefully it doesn't cost over 3k.

Never mind, costs 3500USD without shipping to the US.

just roll down a window. free

The armytrix has cutouts that bypass the muffler making the car sound like it has straight pipes. There are some much cheaper QTP brand cutouts you can buy for any exhaust, but my understanding is they have to be lubed up monthly.

Cutouts are different than the product in the OP. The remote controlled valves just close off the exhaust to quiet it down. They are especially useful for people who run loud exhausts on a dB restricted track. Fully open valves sound the same as the normal exhaust without the valves.
