Dynoed the 6mt today
Thought I would share. This is a comparison between my Stock 6mt and after FI CBE install.
Edit to add Dyno Details.
Stock Run was done 3/30/2013
Car was 100% stock with under 20k miles
The exhaust run was done 8/30/2014
FI CBE added
car has 31k miles
I am not running the Pilot Super Sports
Infiniti put a new transmission Flywheel and Clutch in at 26k

One really buys an exhaust to improve the note, any added hp (if any) is a plus but should not be your reason for a catback purchase. Hell, you should be celebrating you didn't lose any TQ in the low rpm range haha

Very true but it would be nice to have the "extra" power in the lower rpm's just because that's what we use everyday. I just find it nuts though that us G owners usually have to spend over a thousand bucks (in this case around $1500) to get the sound we want from a stinking catback. Gotta love this platform.

Agreed! Never heard any a/m exhausts or muffler delete in person, but from videos the muffler delete sounds best.
Very close to doing it myself, even found the tips I'd want installed on the new pipes: Exhaust Muffler Tip Oval Forward Slash Cut Double Wall Inter-cooled Rolled Edge Resonated 2" Inlet / ID, 4.75X3.25"Outlet / OD #RTP-005

As Sam said above when I bought this exhaust it was for the look and the sound. I knew from what I read when I started making modifications last year that without proper tuning I wouldn't see many gains if any at all which is why I haven't bother with an intake.
That being said I love the look and sound of this exhaust and I get compliments on it all the time.
Overall I am very happy with the results since the motor still seems consistent and strong. The dyno operator told me there is more power to be had based on potential A/F changes as well as potential timing adjustments that can be made using uprev. I plan on doing some K&N drop in filters and going back in a few months but for now since the car is under Warranty for another year I am staying away from the engine and ECU.

Agree 100%.
