Exhaust now fitted and sounds fantastic! Tips not too different to stock ones. Muffler very shiny!

Will test the reported additional 20whp on the way home soon. In the 100kmh areas of course.

Will also post before and after pics if I can figure out the process.

Absolutely louder but not in green sticker territory. Exactly where I wanted it to be.

A very satisfying growl at start and idle, extending to a deep and encouraging note as revs increase. Thankfully doesn't sound like a bumble bee in a jar, more like a lion in a shipping container!

Will get a dyno tune but not able to do so before next weeks cruise.

Once I'm back from Europe and cashed up again I'm aiming for an identical system to this.

Don't forget 90% of those exhausts on the usa Z's will be way over the limit in NZ, they have no noise restriction - we do
