Full OBX Catback Exhaust Review
 
The Delivery
So when the exhaust arrived it was in two large packages. The exhaust was relatively clean, and had little damage.

I'd love to dyno the car to search for the actual power gains from it but who knows. Before this exhaust I had a Megan Axle Back Racing exhaust (for sale) with test pipes. This setup has a MUCH deeper tone, but from 3-4.5k RPM's it does sound kind of "ricey". But since I cruise a lot to save gas, I love it! It drones inside the cabin pretty loudly. But honestly that's what I wanted! I also have test pipes, which I'm sure, make this exhaust twice as loud if not more. I also took it out and really pushed it too. If you floor it with this exhaust it really does sound good. So I'll give this exhaust an overall rating...
Sound: 7/10
[B]Quality:[/B ]9/10
Price: 10/10
And I'll leave you with some more pictures...

Good review. How much was it & is this for sedan or coupe?

JakeB 02-18-2014 07:03 PM

Thanks. I got it for around $700 and for the coupe. Not sure if they make the catback for the Sedan.

Are you going to make a video of it? I was on the button to buy it but I fell off when I saw the Beluga racing exhaust. I ordered it this weekend and should have it by next week. If anything I'll cut out the resonator and replace it with a Vibrant Ultra Quiet but I think I'm safe seeing multiple vids and on the 370z boards someone dynoed with pretty nice results.

The beluga sounds the best of the cheap exhausts IMO. Wonder about the long term quality but you can't beat the price and sound

Solidus 02-19-2014 08:58 AM

Yup, sounds better than some of the mid price units also. I put OBX LT's on my Titan and the quality wasn't Nismo quality but they were just as good as the rest of the headers on the market. The only issue I had was that they discolored, but I expected that with the heat. Either way it's a cheap lesson to learn for better or worse.

FelixC21 02-24-2014 06:28 PM

Im eyeing this exhaust as well. I just want an after market exhaust to cruise with. Please post a video! Thanks for the info!

Still no sound clips? Where are the pics installed?

Jack10525 04-10-2014 08:48 PM

Wonder if this was ever installed.

08Gsmith25 04-10-2014 09:30 PM

Any more pics of the wife/daughter?

FelixC21 04-13-2014 11:57 PM

I went ahead and purchased it as well

It comes with everything attached.. the bolts, gaskets and silencer.

I'll try to have a sound clip sometime this week. (I still have the silencer attached)

Here are shots just by looking under the car

Quick Sound Clip

lol
 
Why is it shaking?

Black Betty 04-25-2014 06:41 AM

Do you have test pipes or does the exhaust have that hiss/rasp all by itself? My Invidiia Q300 had that noise when paired with HFC but not quite as much or maybe it sounded less prominent because it was quieter overall.

08Gsmith25 04-25-2014 08:58 AM

Sounds ok other than that hiss
