Yeah I ran my Mustang open headers once also, who would have thought that my 3.7l V6 is louder than my older 4.6l V8.
I'm running F.I. LTH and F.I. CBE with SS mufflers and no resonators and love the sound. It is loud with a deep raw tone but I wouldn't say its louder than a v8 with straight pipes. I daily drive with no issues. It stays deep and tame at an idle. Gotta love the sound of LTH on this car with any CBE. Congrats.

Honestly, while we were there bending the pipes we didn't think it would be that loud. I guess the fact that it's 2.5" true dual straight pipes as opposed to an X, H or Y design played a role. Either way it turned out to be a fun experiment, this is what happens when gearheads unite, have too much time, and access to special equipment.

YouTube - ‪Carbon Z straight pipe exhaust‬‎

sorry it took me so long, this is only a short rev up video while sitting in the garage. I've been very busy as have my friends so we haven't had a chance to get a driving vid, hopefully soon!

I badly need a tune, it's running very rich. Any quality uprev tuners in NYC?

Figure you hit the limiter at 4500-4700 when you're standing still, you should hear it at redline. As soon as I make a vid of that I'll post it.

Performance MotorSports in Smithtown, across from the Nissan dealer...

Adam does a good job, tell him Chuck with the white 370 sent you if you go there, they appreciate referrals and take care of their loyal customers.

Link doesn't work for me.

I tried running the 350Z w/o any exhaust from the cats back. Whoo! Put a grin in my face.
