Just get the HKS rear section; most people who have it would tell u that their cars growl and sound better than a coupe

With a Z-tube and an intake you'll get a nice effortless growl under the hood.

the back doors welded shut and you'll have a coupe! haha

You will never get your car to have that same exhaust note that the Z/Gcoupe/FX35 have. But a good exhaust like the HKS rear, Borla, or Stillen will make it sound good.

i love my sound w/ the magnaflow 22" resonator (took out the stock midpipe) and a custom piping back ..... close but doesn't sound exactly like the coupes. all VQ vehicles will have a close sound

Not quite, but sounds good with no resonator and HKS rear section(not sure who's car this is).

Here's the Fujitsubo for the sedan. I think it sounds pretty good too.

I've found that a borla with test pipes and a TT kit sounds awesome. It's deep and has some ***** but is very subtle until you get on it and then it's just so cool sounding.

It's the best I have right now. It was more for the turbo but there is a good drive by in the middle where you can hear the exhaust very well.

I have the HKS rear section matched up with a coupe mid pipe, Z tube and Jim Wolf pop charger. IMO, it's the closest thing to getting our sedans to sound like the coupe. People love the way mine sounds. I get a lot of comments.

He has an 06. It has the upgraded mid-pipe compared to the 03/04 sedans.

Any droning from the Borla? I was considering going for the Stillen Gen 2 full exhaust in a few months.

BTW, love the sound of that turbo!

If you can wait a few months, I can sell you my HKS rear section at a great price You will need the additional hanger to get it on your 06.

I need to get a BBK kit first though or I'd sell it to you now.
