Exhaust sound

I have a current video of my exhaust on youtube,(stillen high flow cats and stillen catback) is there a section on here for things like that. I just ordered Stillen headers and I will do another video once I get them on.

Love the video but I didn't feel the sound is as aggressive as it would be for my taste.

I liked that as well. i was unable to do that stock with the 5AT (2008) but after mods I can do it easily as well. Hell, yesterday I was doing 30mph in 2nd and was causing the slip light to go off when romping on it.

gotta love it...

Yea mine is actually a 5AT, once i got the Uprev tuned in, it gets really peppy on the down shift and when traction control is off, its fun to try to hold it down lol.

HEADERS ARE GETTING PUT ON TOMORROW, NEW VIDEO COMING SOON.

Headers sound interesting but I decided not to bust up my knuckles that much

Good luck

Thanks, the catback was already on it so I dont know what the stock sound was, the HFC increased a little noise but its nothing bad. I didnt want to do test pipes for many reasons and that was one.

I just got the headers on today and what a pain in the ***. For one I did not know this but g37's already have a stock shorty header. The stillen will have a little longer tubes, bigger tubes, and equal length tubes. When it came to getting the O2 sensors out they rounded the threads. Luckily the shop i go to is really good and didnt give up on it escpecially after I found out the cheapest they could get it was $205 a piece!!!! the dealer ask 350 a piece!!! I didnt plan on spending more on o2 sensors than my headers and I freaked out a little. ($550 for headers + $500 install + at least $450 for sensors= more than i planned) Result, they drilled a hole in my HFC before the converter and filled the header holes with screw caps. If anyone plans on doing headers plan on buying the FRONT o2, the rears are half the price and not the same btw. Or take a similar approach my shop did.

I will redyno it this saturday and i will post a new video shortly after. Right now I am at 276 RWHP and that is everything bolt on except the headers. Im hoping I hit 10 hp for a good stretch on the graph.

With all these bolt-ons, you should be putting over 300 WHP. I only have an exhaust with tune and my car is giving out 286 WHP. Keep us updated on the results!

My driver side o2 sensor went bad during the transfer, I was able to get one overnighted for $205. Drivewire.com I reset the codes but it kept throwing p1148 and p0031. Both are on the bank 1 side which is driver which is the side that we made fit in the header. Hopefully that takes care of the service engine light.

The reason Im not putting down the numbers most people are is because the dyno I use doesnt "inflate" the numbers. A kid dynoed a 350z at a different one in my city and got 269, Ive had 3 other 350z with at least similar or more done to them than he did and at the one i use they got 242-238-235. Thats a huge difference. But I will probably have a new thread started next week with a youtube video showing the sound and dyno performance.
