you should post a video of your exhaust when you get it installed so i can assure myself that i still want to go custom

Sorry that I've posted it so much. It's just my opinion and maybe you're right. Maybe it does sound a lot better in person. From the videos I've seen, there is a lot of "rollover" and I want to avoid that as much as possible because I think it sounds like something is wrong with the car.

I know that it's hard to avoid rollover no matter what you do with the exhaust, but that's why I'm going to keep it fairly restricted. I'd rather have it sound gorgeous than have the extra performance.

I hope to get my exhaust done over the summer and I'll definitely post a video when it's all said and done. The sound I'm going for is more like the 350z/g35. I don't want a deep sound that's almost like a v8. I want it to distinctly sound like a v6....kinda like this

I know exactly what you're saying. I'm just trying to say that I don't want it deep like what I've been hearing. I'm going to change one part at a time with temporary clamps until I reach my desired sound. It will take me a month or two to complete it(because shipping takes forever), but once I get the parts I need for the sound I want, I'm going to get mandrel bent pipes and weld it all together.

I think that most of the parts will be from Vibrant Performance. I've used their resonators before and they make nice products. If not, then I'll either go with Borla or Magnaflow. I'm not afraid to try one of their products and then remove it because I don't like the way it sounds...I try my best to "do things right the first time" and if it doesn't work the first time, then I don't move on to the next project until I fix my mistakes.

My car won't ever sound like the video I posted, but I was just trying to give an example...I was trying to show that nice sounding exhaust isn't that hard to come by, but bad exhaust is found VERY easily. Until I hear a video of the GT-R exhaust that makes shivers run up my spine, I'm not going to buy it. I'm not saying that the GT-R sounds bad, I'm just saying that I don't want that. I've already had 3 obnoxious cars. I spent over 2 grand on my last exhaust because I went the "easy way out" the first time around and then came back and did it the right way the second time. This time I plan on doing it the right way and doing all the welding myself instead of having some high school kid at Midas do the ugliest welds I've ever seen in my life again.
