HR y-pipe installed!!! W/sound clips!!! My review!!
I have been experiencing and reading up on the discussions about the HR Y-pipe on our cars with the stock exhaust and sound differences etc....
Anyways to make a long story short I picked up a HR Y-pipe and it came in the mail today. I installed it this evening. In the vids they are really quick and short sorry for that...I would get a more lengthly one but it was 10:00 at night and didnt want to wake the neighbors with the reving of the engines.
With that being said..my reviews are as follow.
1. The first impression visually of the y-pipe compared to our stock one is a great improvement!
2. I have read that it creates a lower end torque and alittle more power that you can feel. I would say its knock you back power but you can feel it paired with the correct mods.
3. Sound - you can be the judge by the sound clips but I think it sounds deeper and IMO better than the nismo because its deeper. I do have kinetix HFC's 300 Cell installed as well just as an f.y.i.
Just so everyone knows I picked up a Nismo Z's exhaust as well and I will be installing the muffler once I receive it!!! its the same setup as the regular nismo exhaust but has the special upgraded 4.5' tips with nismo im-printed on them. I will have pics and a sound-clip once installed.
Lets get started with the clips and pics.
here are the comparison's to our stock y-pipe.
Stock exhaust with Kinetix HFC's. (turn up the volume some)
Stock exhaust with HR Y-pipe added and Kinetnx HFC's

The Nismo Z exhaust adds to the deepness of the sound, but that's really it. The HR y-pipe looks alot better though, and would fit on AWD G's/FX's I'm pretty sure.
the new Nismo Z Exhaust happens to be the HR Y pipe...

Ya, I know the Nismo uses the HR. I meant that the Nismo muffler by itself only deepens the sound.
