OB '04 Coupe Premium w/Performance Wheel & Tire
On my 06 (bigger muffler than 04) I got some drone with just the midpipe swap, then it went away once I installed my hr y pipe. It brought out the VQ gargle/sound that we all love. When I upgrade my exhaust it will probably be to a full Motordyne system. As far as power goes, I felt a bit more power on my lower end and I felt like it gets over the 3k - 4k mark a bit easier, it could just be my head. Another thing I noticed is that the switch in cam lobes is more pronounced, has anybody felt that? Its like VTEC (jk) seriously kicked in.
If you are running a coupe middy then I would go with an HR Y pipe, the diameter of the piping matches up better.

I just got the HR Y pipe. You do feel the mid torque difference

It took me like 4 Months of constantly looking in the market place. Don't give up, you wont regret it. got mine for 100 bucks in great condition
^Truth! 
^Which one? they make two (more?) different ones.
Still seems like $100 is kinda much for an OEM piece discarded buy some Z owner.

but after looking for months and seeing them at a much higher price on here and on ebay i was like F it!
I paid like 30 over the price but it was worth it
