Exhaust Help!!!! Z1 Test Pipes

Hey guys! I am pretty new to this forum. I bought my G37S coupe back in August. When i bought the car, it had a full Magnaflow exhaust. It sounded awesome! Nice deep sound and no rasp.

Well since then i bought Z1 test pipes. After the long and stressful installation of the test pipes, the car does not sounds as good as i thought. i knew that there is going to be a lot of rasp and that is ok not the problem. The problem i am running into is that whenever i let off the gas at any speed, the exhaust has a very loud squealing sound. I took it to my exhaust guy thinking that maybe something was loose and it was rattling but after looking under the car everything seemed fine. I also took my car to Forged and they said another guy had the same issue with Magnaflow.

Has anyone here ever heard of that? I am willing to buy a new exhaust. What is a good setup that will go good with the Z1 Test pipes? And last question, could i get away with just buying an axle back and using the same tubing that i have now?


Any and all help will be greatly appropriated!


thanks in advance!

Test pipes on a N/A car are going to be fairly loud and raspy, resonated test pipes or high flow cats would have been a better option.

Thanks for the tip! So if i were to get some resonated test pipes would that make the "hissing" noise go away? And do you think my Magnaflow exhaust would be fine to keep?
