Cool Review MOTORDYNE SHOCKWAVE E370

WARNING!!! Pics and sound clips will be awesome!!!

here we go....

Z Is stock except for the exhaust.

I wanted an exhaust that will bring out the best out of my Z. I ended going with this exhaust after hearing the great exhaust that they have built over the past. one in particular were the Shockwave for the g35's . I heard a few clips and i did not want any drone. I will dyno later but i know i will get good numbers.
OK enough chitchat! When I first receive the exhaust It was well packed and no damage at all. the welds done on the exhaust were great! Motordyne packed the exhaust very well! the tips are interchange able and you can adjust them any way you want. All claps and bolts were included the only thing that was a problem was that the bolts where the pipe connects to the catalic converters were to long but they are just bolts! all good after that

some goodies that Tony sent! thank you Tony!

4.5 inch stainless steel tips were included also! as you can tell they made sure not to leave anything that a noob like me would not forget.



the well written instructions.

No extra car so in the hatch it must go. fit well as Tony said it would.

up she goes

getting there


there was a little problem with the passenger pipe hitting a metal cover. the installer decide to make a few adjustments to the bracket holding that side.all good after that

all done!
here are the before and after.
before


after.




here is a youtube video

I love the sound once i took it out of the shop! I was like wow that's my Z making that lovely sound! Of course i had to drive like a fool lol but i loved it!
At low rpms the exhaust is quite but once you push it past 3k the best comes out! I'm very pleased! This exhaust was what I was hoping for and it did not disappoint! Motordyne has a great customer service and picks up my when I call. they answer all of the questions that I had before purchasing the E370. I was probably the one who was waiting the longest for this and first one to reserve it. I'm glad I waited!

Thank you Tony and everyone that worked on the SHOCKWAVE E370 at Motordyne! They made this exhaust possible!
I will be ordering ART pipes in the future!!!!

Really? How does that work? I mean I know there is usually a little bit of play but not to the extent you went (not saying its ugly) Just curious.

The tips are adjustable with screws/bolts, they can be pushed in further so they don't stick out the back.
