I'd be shocked if your car was in the bay @ the shop longer than 1/2 hour....they'll probably charge you $40-$60 for the install.

Will you hurry up so I can get your stock muffler(hehe) Congrats on the HKS muffler. It looks sweet. Hmmm, maybe I should just get that instead of your stock muffler.

Ron, you gotta take my stock muffler stock '05/06 sounds sweet. PM me your phone # and we can meet up tomorrow or Friday for the exchange. If it's Friday, I can meet in the morning only since I have to get up to SF in the early part of the afternoon. I'm free on the weekend too.

on to the pics:

InfinitY????

here's how it's packaged in the box:

with the packaging off:

the tips at an angle:

quality of the welds:

lastly, the most important part of the package that gives the 3-5hp gains:


overall, the build quality of the exhaust is impressive. i didn't think the rear section alone was going to be so big... with the oem one being tucked away so nicely, it's deceiving. the quality of materials feels top notch and the welds look great. overall, +1 for HKS

i'm still waiting on infiniti of scottsdale to get the brackets/hangar out to me that the 05/06 sedans need. funny thing is that i ordered those parts first, they shipped 2-3 days earlier and they still aren't here yet! i would have had the exhaust yesterday if i wasn't at work until 10:30pm. the brackets/hangar are supposed to arrive today (soon hopefully) and i should get the exhaust on tomorrow morning if everything goes right. i'll be posting more pics when it's on my car and maybe a sound clip or two if people are interested.

Are you changing the entire exhaust system or only the rear section ?

If you want to drive to Oakley, ill hook you up on the install as well.

Also, if your interested in buying some used Crawford CATs, let me know...I am considering getting rid of mine.

Congrats, it is a great muffler.

Thanks!
I use the MOTHERS (mag & aluminum) polish. It works great.
