G35 sedan w/ too much money in mods
They did, a couple as a matter of fact. The VQ exhaust was a very limited run, IIRC Tony only made 25 sets and they got snapped up quickly. I happen to have the prototype and love, love, love it. Fast forward a few years later and Tony offered to make another batch but inexplicably there wasn't enough interest for him to go through with it.

thank you - and the videos don't do the sound justice.... the windows were up...
it's an automatic ... I've had 18 surgeries on my right knee and 2 on my right ankle so no more manuals for me....

Motordyne exhaust exhaust is like a fine piece of jewelry and sounds great! Motordyne was only 2 miles from my front door here in SoCal until they move to Florida!

I'm auto too.

Reason I ask is not because the annoying question (IS IT STICK BROO UGH ITS NOT A SPORTS CAR WITH NO STICK), but because I wondered if you have a minor drone from 2000-2400 RPM. Tony told me it was normal to have that Drone and it was to be expected only on automatics for some reason. It's not loud but it's not as quiet in that daily driver sort of way.

I don't really notice any drone with normal driving...
However, the sound level and any associated drone seems to be directly proportional to how hard I accelerate...
Cruise Control set at 85mph and stereo volume at 25% of max - exhaust note is barely detectable...

The way I would describe it would be it's like a minor exhaust leak from 1900 RPM to 2500 RPM under load.

Otherwise it's just exhaust note and no drone at higher and lower RPM's. I tightened the nuts to 70 inch pounds as per Tony's recommendation.

If you have no music on is it annoying under load at low RPM?
