Looking for an aggressive sound, not loud..

So heres the deal, on my second g35x and i decided to finally do some work with it. I did some work to the exterior and just shipped a stillen CAI to my house. My girl has a g37s she bought from NYC that def had some work done to the exhaust. Thing just sounds meaty. makes my g sound like a little girl. Ive been looking through the forums and i see a lot of suggestions to get a HFC. Will that get me the "aggression" I'm looking for? A few of my friends have suggested just removing the resonators, but I'm a little nervous about it. Theres an evo, 335i, and an is350 and NONE of them have removed theirs (that they've admitted to). Im looking for aggression not LOUD. if i wanted to wake ppl up sounding like a civic, i would have bought one lol.. Suggestions?

Get a stillen exhaust to go with the gen3. IMHO, getting an HFC is just asking for potential problems, especially if you are mainly going for sound.

I have the stillen cat back system and the stillen gen 3 intakes. I really liked the sound of the exhaust when I had just the cat back system. I had a tanabe medallion axxle back for a while and it just wasn't quite enough. The stillen has a nice smooth tone to it and it sounds beasty.

Not too long after I was going to get a custom tune done and I was getting a CEL because one of my cats was bad. I had them replacxed with high flow cats supplied by Z1motorsports. From what I understand, they use the same cores as the berks but they were cheaper. The HFC's added a nice growl to the exhaust not but they also made the exhaust a lot louder. I don't mind it personally but I know thats not what you are looking for.

The HFC's also have a hissing noise when you are wide open throttle. Sounds kinda like a turbo

yea they have a different exhaust setup than our sedans do. its split into 2 mufflers instead of one transversely mounted one. although some aftermarket setups like FI utilize the 2 muffler setup.


look at ark, thats going to be the most aggressive, but definately loud.
