The MXP's design looks like it would cut down on more rasp

This is a really short clip.

YouTube - G37 GTM TEST PIPES short clip

I made several runs.
but it turned out my wife didn't even know how to push the record button.

So, this is the only video.


I revved until 4.5~5k rpm in this video.
So, you can imagine how loud it'd be at the redline.

How are you enjoying the test pipes? I am still on the fence about these. Is the G your daily driver?

I like it very much, but I've never had HFCs on the G.
I think you might be disappointed since there won't be a much difference between HFCs and TPs.. and yes sir, it's my DD car.

Some people say yes, and I agree that there might a little drone at some low rpm, but I actually don't feel any annoying drone when driving.
When i cruise at the 6th gear, it sounds just like the stock until I really step on the gas pedal.

Little bit of rasp, but nothing too bad. Fast Intentions hooked me up with 2 prototypes of something never done on a G37 before, stay tuned...
