Question about OEM Nismo Exhaust?

One thing with the Akra is that it's not as majorly loud, so you might end up disappointed.

I bought the whole Evo system - sounds lovely, not rediculously loud, just right for me but I imagine some would think it's a little quite.

I ditched that h pipe design Nismo went with (the diameter is at 2" I believe)and had my guy make me X pipe config @ 2 1/2 Sounds more throaty and really opened up on the top end. I also put the GTM test pipes on. Im still using the factory cans too. Its sounds slightly raspy at 4grand but clears out. Thats cause of the factory muffler with those tips cant handle the faster flow. But what a differance compared to that factory Nismo exhaust set up. In my opinion Nismo didn't impress me with that set up underneath. The piping tappers all threwout. I dont know why they couldn't make it one diameter. The Nismo tips are a nice touch but the single muffler? That's gotta go eventually when my moneys right.
