N/A engine tune over any exhaust IMO ,ok lets say you got the exhaust done then what status who cares about that IMO,the point is you clamp on that exhaust on your ride and then before you exit your garage you get pulled over for loud exhaust (Illegal mod) then you have to pay to take it off and there goes $7,000 back to the garage no thnx.

NOT THE MENTION THE NASTY SCRATCHES YOUR EXHAUST WILL ENDURE WHILE DRIVING THROUG ROUGH STREETS.

1) What about an N/A tune?

2) Status - obviously you don't care, but some people do. People mod their cars for different purposes. Some for the power, some for the status, some for show, some for all of the above.

3) How do you know if this exhaust is loud? Have you heard it? I haven't, but I'm not going to assume it's loud (or quiet for that matter). Catback exhausts are not illegal themselves. If they exceed the legal sound limit, sure. But again, we don't know if this does or not (not to mention that is state dependent).

4) I'm sure someone that has a $7k+ exhaust on their car is going to be mindful of how and where they drive. Provided, **** happens. But if you shell out that much money, bet you're going to be careful. This doesn't necessarily have to go on a daily driver, either. Could go on a show car that sees little time on the road.

Thats like saying rims that cost over 5k is a waste cause you can get rims and tires for 800$


Just cause you cant afford it doesnt mean other people cant

For one thing, I don't believe the pictured exhaust is 350z/G35 specific. It's just an ARC exhaust (universal picture, not uncommon for these kinda websites).

An N/A tune shouldn't cost you $2k. Take a look at Church Automotive and UpRev Osiris.
