Hey everyone need some help, got a 2013 g37x sedan with tanabe axleback, now I want to either swap the the resonator with vibrant or get the Megan y pipe. Which one would give me a deeper tone, I hate rasp n hear the tanabe with vibrant but wanted to know about the y pipe, also if I get the vibrant res should I also match the mid-pipe to the vibrant res. Thanks in advance to everyone on this, this forum rocks.

 

this might help you

tanabe with megan y pipe sounds good. not sure if changing a resonator will give much results

 

ice seen that vid but the g37s has different diameter piping compared to the sedan from factory so I don' think it would sound exactly like the G from the video.

 

Don't go w/ the Y-pipe unless you plan to match the larger piping diameters w/ reducing cones, this mismatch will result in that rasp that you dread, and the Y has the smallest change in exhaust volume. I'd consider RHFCs for what you're wanting or RTPs.

 

what if I went with the smaller vibrant resonator n match the mid-pipe to the resonator, or if I go with the resonator should I leave the mid-pipe stock??

 

Every time I hear these comparison videos I think stock setup sounds 10x better. That was the worst part of exhaust shopping for me. Makes me sad I don't have that stock tone. That hollow metallic resonating growl sounds so good.

 

Have you looked into x pipes? I heard the magnaflow resonated x pipe 11386 took out the rasp and made it deep

 

don' forget the coupe n sedan have diffrent piping so it won' sound exactly the same, believe the coupe has smaller resonators n larger diameter pipes to being with

 

rightttt gotchu. This might help your decision

 

that sounds real nice but I already ordered the vibrant resonators n already have the tanabe exhaust
