Honestly at this price point for a single exhaust system why not look at getting one custom built? I got a full 3" mandrel bent turboback system on a past car for like $600.

Could I just get any muffler I want? Or how would I go about that?

As long as it's a 3" inlet I don't see why not. All they'd have to do is weld a hangar on it, super easy. When I got mine built I bought two Magnaflow 'straight through' mufflers on eBay which looked just like the mufflers other pre-made systems used. Of course, you could buy resonators instead unless you want straight pipes :tup:

Mandrel bent is horrible for performance lol. It basically squeezes the pioe to bender giving it a smaller diameter. Building a custom exhaust like this one is going to cost you more. It it's not a easy setup on the Z. Cheaping out never ends well. I've made hat mistake already on my Subaru. Lost power over the stock exhaust with a mandrel bent straits pipe lol

I would ask soho. They might be able to do a different muffler set up for you. But you'd have to send it to him to fit it into the jig when he fabricates the exhaust. To make sure it clears and to weld on hangers

Wat. Mandrel bent means that the pipe is the same diameter even in bends, what you're thinking of is crush bent where the bends are a smaller diameter. I would not call a custom exhaust 'cheaping out' nor would I call the Z's exhaust complicated - there's like 2 bends.

Sorry. That was my mistake. I was thinking crush bend. And 2 bends? Don't forget you have to make the y-pipe there buddy. And it is complicated. Have you tried building one? Have you tried to clear the drive shaft, rear diff and sway, and rear chasis brace without having clearance issues with a three inch pipe? It's much more complicated than you're thinking. 2 bends my ***. I thought the same thing before though so I can't blame you lol. Going custom will usually cost the same if not more anyways. I was referring to crush bending when I said Cheaping out.

Gregor12 02-22-2015 04:42 PM

Ohh also, don't forget the center brace which has about a 4 inch hole after it bolts to the y pipe. Gotta clear that and make sure you're not hitting the brace without going to high and causing it to hit in the rear.

Yep, definitely not something I could build; however, in comparison to some other cars it's a fairly easy system. Of course every shop is different and it may cost more getting something built, I always think it's an option people overlook though.

Very true. Depends on the shop or the quality of steel used. you could also say it's very hard in comparison to other cars haha

Gregor12 03-02-2015 11:08 PM

Sold the car? What the

Japanjay 03-03-2015 08:52 PM

It s one of the companies that about 6 months ago came out with a new carbon rear diffuser. I PMed them about the possibility of making it with only one hole and they said it would not be a problem, just have to pay up front.

NoLaKrewe 03-03-2015 08:54 PM

I'd like to know as either way, I want a single exit exhaust

Gregor12 03-04-2015 03:13 AM

I'm selling mine. Just to throw that out there lol

Japanjay 03-04-2015 06:23 PM

I believe it was aerojacket. Whoever made the latest rear diffuser that sticks out and wraps around to the edge of the fender well, spats can go one over it.
