Been following this for a while now. Hoping to the first X with these and be well over 300WHP. :)-

if you don't have any HFC's or TP's you will be well over... if you have something already you will get at least a few hp over what you have now... but the throttle response is just the coolest part of the pipes, and it's got a really nice tone too!

2:09 - 2:18 sounds good! :driving:

Could use a price point for the install of the pipes and a tune I would assume.
Thanks again,
TommyGuns

Price point?

120 for test pipe install.

Tune...well that differs. UpRev is $500-600 and you can do an e-tune with UpRev (which runs $50). E-Tune is you driving the car on the street, logging the data, and sending those logs out to UpRev. They look at the logs, and send you back a tune with all of the adjustments made to your AFR, timing, etc. Virtually identical to how a dyno tune works, except you don't have any horsepower numbers from a machine.

I already have the uprev done. What I'm assuming is that It will have to be done again. I'm looking for a price for that.
Thanks

Yea do not have anything, Stock cats :/. So hoping these will be a nice increase.

If you already have a tune for any other breather mods, adding in ART pipes won't be an issue.

then you will feel a HUGE pickup of power, that is the most restrictive part :tup:

37drift any update???

Quick question guys.

I have a whine that developed after I got my motordyne art pipes and my 25 row oil cooler.

During high rpms I have this whine noise from front/mid of the car. I am thinking it it more of the art pipes. Art pipes are causing a turbine sound to form during regular street driving which I suspect is the same thing I am hearing at higher rpms (just more whinier).

Can anyone elaborate on this?

oil coolers will have a whine if you have the thermostatic plate and do not have the line covers and the lines are resting up against any part of the chassis.

what exahust do you have btw.

Invidia Gemini, I think it might be the pipes. Some guy with the ark was talking about a whistle at his X pipe, maybe the same thing with mine?

I have a whine but it's only noticeable in 6th gear when accelerating from like 3-5k Rpm.

^+1 I've seen(heard) this before.

i've heard a whine in 1st gear right next to a wooden fence with no engine load... I think it's just the gears... never heard it at higher rpms though, and never loud.

it sounds like a turbine lol, HEres a vid its a little hard to hear but lemme know. http://i208.photobucket.com/albums/b...h_IMG_0715.jpg

Yep. That's the sound of the oil pump being transmitted through the hoses and into the chassis. Isolate the hoses from the chassis with a hose wrap or similar.

Got a good deal on some HFCs so I guess I'll be going ti the FI CBE instead of waiting for the Motordyne. I may get the m370 in the future though.

Are you sure?? So if -or should I say when I get these. ( You do not make them for me yet- G37X Coupe.) I can bolt these on and not worry about my tune. I'll just pick up 15 WHP and TRQ? Noob question I know but had HFC's on my old G and had to take them off cause the car would not run right. Heistated and sputtered un WOT really bad.

I didn't have any issues with swapping out different test pipes on this Z. Just make sure to unplug the battery before making changes so the car can adapt to it.

Hmm ok, But you where already tuned with HFC's right? I have the stock cats still. I'm just worried about installing these and not retuning the car from Stock cats to TP's?

Tuner told me if the car is already tuned then the battery disconnect wont reset anything..

Go get a dyno see the difference, see if you are running lean or if you have a HP drop from last time. if so get a tune (usually retunes are about $150ish). If its a minor drop but your AFR IS still good, get some more mods and retune.

No. The tune was the most recent thing I've done.

I did the HKS exhaust in February.
I did the Stillen intake in March.
I did GTM Resonated Test Pipes in April. (I put on 7000 miles with these installed too!)
Then I switched them out for Motordyne Art pipes July/August.
And finally got an UpRev tune a few weeks ago.

My Z has never had issues. The SES light did come on about about 480miles after installing the ART pipes but I was literally driving to the other coast to get tuned.

hmmm I did not know that.

Disconnecting the battery will not clear any SES codes if thats what you're talking about.

I mean once you have uprev the disconnecting of battery wont start the relearning proccess or w.e where the car adjusts the AFR

Gotcha.

So Im probaly gonna have the shop that I tune at install these anyway and retune it to be safe.. More mods,LOL.. Only thing left after theses is a GTM SC.. But with AWD I dont think so. :ugh2:

The tune sets the AFR based on the sensor parameters, the AFR will still shift slightly if the conditions change due to changing equipment. So yes, the car will still adapt a bit but going from stock cat to test pipe a tweak of the tune may be necessary especially if you want to maximize the equipment. Kaizen will give you a discount on a new dyno tune since you already have UpRev, or they might be able to tweak a little bit without using the dyno.

Hey Chris thanx, Did you know I used Kaizen for my UPREV :) Rob was awsome. .

An thnax for the info, Was what I thought. Will be call them( Rob) as soon as the TP's are ready.

Would you be willing to produce one? I know that there are alot of poeple according to the forum that are interested let alone the people that are not even on the forums...

It would just replace the entire Nismo cat-back exhaust just like it replaces the entire non-Nismo cat-back exhaust. No different from any other aftermarket exhaust and will fit the Nismo if you bolt it onto the cats.

Yes I did :) I used them as well.

So will this new exhaust be a true dual? If so, hopefully it will be offered with a 3" diameter/piping for turbo guys. I'm looking into get a TT kit, and I would love to get a motordyne product. The quality/sound is great. Just make sure the mufflers don't hang low like the Ark/GTM/Fast Intentions!

About time you came to the dark side :tup:

Yes, yes and yes.:tup:

Tony,

At least 4 members including myself have reported SES lights (P2A00 and P2A03) with the ART pipes V2. Do you think it has to do something with the revised design?

I did not encounter any SES issues with V1.

Awesome. Thanks for the response!
