Axle back exhaust

MicntaeG35

So I have a 2011 370z nismo that I purchased a couple months ago and I love the car! The only thing is that the exhaust is just WAY too quiet! I'm going to buy a full cbe but I'm going to wait until my warranty is up. So in the meantime I want to buy an axle back set up (something quick and easy to install /uninstall). I've done a lot of searching and browsing on this forum but can't really. a decision. The 3 I've narrowed it down to are the Topspeed, Megan racing, and AAM. Now the question is, which one is going to give me the best sound? I know I'm not going to get the awesome exhaust note like from a full Cat-Back but I still don't want a high pitch Honda civic rice rocket exhaust note. If there is a thread I've missed explaining please point me in the right direction. Any help is greatly appreciated!!

Why are you waiting for the warranty to be up?

There is NO reason

There are dyno's with people running Nismo exhaust and headers or Nismo exhaust and test pipes with an axleback. These guys are still making 320~340whp (all on the same dyno at R/T Tuning). The nismo exhaust is capable of making power people are in denial for some stupid reason, I've seen a clip of Top Speed axleback and test pipes and it sounds great.

That's awesome! The only thing is as of right now it'll just be the axleback. (no hfc, test pipes, or headers). And I just want a good exhaust note for now until I decide to do a full cbe +test pipes.


Because if something gets messed up, I want to have my warranty.

The AAM's are Loud as ****.

All you need is a hacksaw and a little elbow grease if you want loud. Plenty of Civic owners do it, how could they be wrong?

Again just get the Top speed axle back and then down the road LTH or Z1 headers and test pipes. Save the money and keep the Nismo mid pipe you won't miss any power and the saved money will be wonderful.

^^(onezedge)^^ haha don't even get me started




I kinda like it to be loud. But is it like a raspy kinda loud or does it actually sound good? I've looked at YouTube videos but honestly pretty much all the exhaust compilations sound practically alike due to throw it's recorded

CBE doesn't void your warranty.

MicntaeG35

Actually it can. It all just depends on how the dealer wants to treat you. If you have a real good dealership in your area you take it to and the guys will work with you, they'll usually look past the exhaust but if your dealership wants to be a prick they can technically say your powertrain is voided due to the exhaust. I had a Motordyne exhaust on my G35 and 3 different dealerships denied doing warranty work on my G because of the exhaust.

No, not at the end of the day. There must be a reasonable connection between a modification and denial of claim. Invoke Magnuson-Moss or other consumer protection/warranty law and you should be able to cut through the crap.

In most cases yeah that's true. But for now I'm just going to stick with an axleback until I save up the money to do a full Cat-Back, test pipes and headers setup.

WOW, you believe that. They can and will deny your warranty. They will even go in and flag your vehicle in the system. It's BS, but go to the wrong place and you will pay dearly. Happens all the time in the diesel truck world. It can get ugly quick.

So back to the question I'm trying to get answered lol Which of the 3 axlebacks will sound better? I've heard mixed reviews on all of them

Davey

All of them will sound better.
