Lightbulb Custom Pipes w/Pics & Sound

Having spent a lot on my G35, I stopped by a few exhaust shops last week to weigh my options on the financially responsible route that I'm taking my current car. I had a Borla on my G35 and really liked the throaty sound. I wanted that on my 37 without paying Borla prices. So here is what went down.
It’s a little more quiet inside and a lot more amplified outside and throaty. Take the current sound x5 and that is what its sounds like. It’s not restricted at all. Gearing down sounds great. No drone on freeways or at cruising speeds. Now I need to decide what intake to go with. I’m very happy with the results and would like to thank Gary at Ken’s Muffler for working with me on this.

What I wanted gone



Poof! Gone.

End Result



PM me if you want to know the pricing on this. I'm not trying to hang any vendors out to dry.

sounds nice. I'd be a little worried about those bends though. looks like they could have been a tad better.
