I plan on switching from the VQ exhaust to shockwave also. Do you have any other videos besides the ones at Tony's house I have a 5at also.

The version you have do you still have the option to switch out modules? The version I see the TDX bolts up where it merges with no module.

If not how do you plan to smog your car?

Jayk car sounds good with the art pipes kind of sounds like a supra with a exhaust when you rev it.

And now I have my current shockwave v2 + art pipes, there's a slight drone at exactly 2500 rpm, but anything above or below that, it doesn't drone, it's just the loudness of the exhaust.
Give the fumes some time Jayk, you'll get used to it!
So the Art Pipes did help reduce the loudness? I'm really interested on getting the Art Pipe but mainly to reduce the noise. I used to have a Test Pipe and I couldn't take it anymore so I'm back to my stock CAT.

TDX does not have the ability to swap out parts. only the Shockwave Dual can.

hes gonna have to swap them out for his Smog.

... or pay the guy to pass him.

Compared to regular Test Pipes you are correct.

so the midpipe in the version you have is not a TDX?

Looks the same as the one that connects up at the merge point of xyz.

Note the Large Resonator's location.

Thanks for the pics I just read the difference from here. http://my350z.com/forum/intake-exhau...ual-x-tdx.html

I think I like the option to still change out the modules. Does your car and silencer's sound almost the same? I couldn't really tell from his vid.

The only other video I have with the ART pipes is when I dyno'd it:

Jayk is right about the TDX not being able to change modules. As for smog.....I don't have to worry about it yet since I have an 07, but when the time comes, I know a guy who knows a guy who knows a guy .

I haven't heard Jayk's car with the ART pipes in person yet, but he's heard mine, so maybe he can answer if we sound the same. But I think my car sounds a little deeper, whereas his sounds a bit more raw. I'm assuming its because I have the shockwave V2 with the resonators.
