Next step in exhaust system??
I have 06 g35 5AT with Z1 high flow cats, plenum spacer and Intake, installing a NWP 75 mm throttle body next week, muffler is stock because I like the tone. It’s deff louder with all this but I still feel like something is missing. I want to add a Z1 y pipe, would that be the missing piece I need to make louder and keep stock tone? |
Great first mods Tyler! My best advice buying an exhaust system, forget the damn y-pipe and look for a actual dual cat back system that eliminates it! To achieve maximum flow and sound quality only a cat back system works best! Which one is best has been discussed since '04, do a SEARCH! My opinion HKS or Motordyne!
Good Luck, enjoy the ride...Gary |
Thanks man do you know anything about Z1 in Georgia? They make some pretty good stuff for our cars and they have a cat back system suppose to be ridiculously loud! |
They make some great products but a single exit is weird on a G. I would stick to Invidia, HKS, or Motordyne only if you really want the best.
EXCEPT !!!!!!! Your G will drone no matter what exhaust because you have a 5AT. Ask how I know :(. |
Yeah that’s what I was afraid of and I guess with the auto their is no way around the drone? |
"SLICK" has zero drone and she's running a AT!

Imagine putting 32oz of dog sh*t in a 1 lb. can! That's what happens when your OE exhaust can't handle the extra volume...the dreaded drone! Only way to correct is with a high flow real cat-back exhaust system!

Experience is better than someone's elses opinion!

Urban has a valid point. It seems there are a bunch of people that have paired the TDX2 with the stock auto transmission and have drone. And that's with a variety of high-flow/stock cats and test pipes. Hence his advice to call Tony and ask is spot on.
|
Knowing what I know now I would've done Gary's method with nice HFC because that smell sucks on a DD.
|
I was just cruising around in a friends '65 Chevelle reminiscing about how I missed that smell lol.
|
That's cool in an old car like that :).
|
I love the smell in any car. Takes me back to my old '72 Cutlass 442, man I really miss that car.
