Funny, I thought it sounds similar to an air cooled Porsche or a late 90's porsche with a decent exhaust.

But yes, exotic is a matter of opinion. I personally associate the word "exotic", in terms of an exhaust note, with high powered sports cars. The above exhaust (and the GThaus) certainly belong in that category more than just about every other 370Z exhaust.

How about this one?

Damn Power Craft is SICK. Love that exhaust. Makes our V6 sound like the SHYTE. How do I order??

Great sound...The $4K pricing is a bit high

to me, most of the 370 exhausts out now sound exotic in some sort of way IMO. It also depends on what one person considers to be "exotic" as well. Everyone has a different idea. I think the Invidia with the ART pipes sounds very exotic personally. I also think that the F.I. has a somewhat exotic tone to it as well.

Ark has that really deep tone that I really do love the sound of... it's almost V8ish, but better sounding IMO.

Before I spend the upper range to what these systems go for, I would like it to have that low level muscle car V-8 "Growel" ..That engine sound is just hard to miss.

Realizing the 370Z's power planet is not that....The Power Craft Hybrid is damn close and does sound similiarity to the GT-R sound!!!!! but for $4K?????

as of now, F.I. has the highest gains from 20 whp with stock cats and about 25-28 with test pipes. I think stillen is around 18? I believe I read that somewhere.

I'm not sure how much WHP my ExoticSpeed gave me but with NO HFC's, Their CAT-Back ,Stillen Gen 3s, and tune I got 298 WHP.

Oh this is on a AWD 7SPD auto on a Mustang Dyno.

yeah, good numbers for those mods... i'd like to see what you'd get with some ART pipes and an XYZ... I have my ART pipes coming tomorrow and the XYZ will be after that... then the CBE and hopefully Tony at MD will have his intake at least in the works.

Funny cause I been debating on the ART pipes, But do not like what I'm reading about all the rattling going on. Still wait to see a dyno with a tune and my mods. If I can get 330WHP maybe but for anything like 10WHP nope.
