How low does this exhaust hang compared to stock? Are there any issues with scraping/speed bumps?

Edit: Also, Is there much of a performance gain on an otherwise stock NISMO? (sorry for the noob questions)

You will last 10 minutes longer in bed and a hottie will give you their number with every downshift. Just buy it.

Side note: mine arrives Thursday

Don't think so.. I've got a base and mine didn't have one. They must have run out during assembly and said screw it, whoever buys it will take it off to put a FI exhaust on anyways

The EVAP cover is obsolete from model years 2012+. Budget cuts I guess for newer production years.

Thanks, Tony

Installed #966 last night and I am in love! Non res carbon fiber is amazing. Instal was super easy did it in my garage on jack stands took about 2 hours and everything fit perfect. Tips sat flush and level with no adjustments. Perfect quality

Default To resonate or not to resonate... that is the question

Ok, my exhaust is real close to being in the build queue. I've ordered the CF with 12" resonators. But I'm not sure if I should change the order to non-resonated exhaust. I would like to get input from members that have either of these set-ups. Thanks.

BTW, I have PPE racing headers already installed. A few hundred miles on them with no problems.

Go non-res, you won't be disappointed. Of course I don't know what it would sound like with the PPE headers, but I switched from 12" to non-res before my order as well. Don't have an ounce of regret, best sound ever.

with LTh though, would it sound crappy (metallic, raspy, fart-can, "unrefined") without resonators?? would the 12" be a safe bet...

I've listened to as many videos as I could find but of course its always different in person.

opinions?
