After having the non-res SS setup for a while, I did wish it was louder. Stock headers and cats so I guess that would be the next thing to get changed.

Ok I'm a bit of an exhaust slut, having a few setups on the z thus far. First setup after stock of course, stillen shorty headers, berk HFC's and stillen carback. Then stock headers and cats, FI catback w/12" resonators and SS cans, swapped out the mid section for a non-res section two weeks in, my favorite so far. I sold my FI setup as it was gen one and I needed more low plus the roads down here blow. Now I'm full stock except for aam short tail just to have something till I've got the cash for a non-res FI system with CF cans like the one above. In short the FI system is the best sounding and by far the best fit and finish system I've ever done, and not just on the z. All the systems I've done over the years on my and friends cars, it is the best far and beyond....Hats off to Tony and his whole crew, great products and customer service all around.

Tony I'd be open to a *couch-couch* sponsorship. user647_pic11043_1266642935.gif

WOW!! Is the only word to describe the exhaust. Thanks to RoyaltyB, I had the privilege to experience the non-resonated CBE first hand. The sound is literally night and day. It was very nice of him for letting me ride shotgun in the sweet 2014 Nismo, and nearly giving heart attacks on a few turns. The non-resonated cbe with stock cats alone sounds ridiculously sick. No other way to express it.
As much as I would like to go non-resonated, I can't afford to draw attention from the cops because of my career path . I will stick with the 12’’ resonated. Even then, I’m sure it’s plenty loud. For those who choose to go non-resonated, you will not be disappointed. Last edited by genesis2012; 02-14-2014 at 03:22 AM. |

How about res-HFC and NR CF cans. This set up is awesome.

No problem G. Just glad you could finally get a chance to make a clear choice. Sorry for the near heart attacks (plural is scary though ) but I assure you that you were plenty safe, it was well within my limits and the car. Although it's a different feeling being a passenger for sure.
Be excited and patient. Tough to wait for something you want so bad, I waited longer than many, but the feeling after hearing the cold start right after the install was priceless. Then the test drive and drive home, unbelievable. If you didn't message me it would have sat until the morning, you gave me an excuse just to hear it again. Glad you made the trek to hear it. Look forward to seeing and hearing your exhaust.

What's up dude!!! While I know you were a bit limited by conditions on the video, you def added to what others were recommending. Def some good advice; which I have been trying to pass on Really appreciate the time you took to record and send me the videos. I seriously could not be happier! Sound is amazing. Not even the same car now. Will have to send you some vids as well. My couple of iPhone videos so far are ok, but will get something good and send it. Curious how similar our cars might sound.

After reading this, I'm emailing tony this morning to change my setup from 12" resonated to non resonated, I hope is not too late.
