    no, by no means am i saying that your suggestion is not any good...in fact its the most reasonably priced, and the most proven....so most likely that is the route i will go...i just want to explore all of my options before i decide on something..

    yes you are correct...the infinity has a 1-to-2 then 2 smaller mufflers after that...i found that out after i already suggested the idea...therefore its not very likely considering with that much muffler under my car, one of them would definately get ripped off while wheeling

    If you have the money and a welder at hand, you can go down this route. I've thought about getting one installed. I know a couple of guys that have a similar one that is controlled by solenoid instead of wire cable. Keeps it nice and quiet till you really want the extra airflow/sound...

    One thing i forgot to mention is that my zx has a true twin exhaust, ie one cylinder bank to one and the other bank to the other exhaust and it sounds very different when people put a single exit system on.

    The G35 looks like a twin but don't know if there are twin pipes or two seperate exhaust pipes?

    I personally always prefered the sound of the skyline to the 300zx so i guess i prefere a single exit exhaust anyway.

    Fair enough PB. Sorry - I didn't mean to sound like I was insisting you follow my suggestion either! Just painting a picture...

    And just so I'm really clear - the Dynomax still has plenty of sound to it, but it's like 70% of the volume the FlowMaster put out. What you said about the PV - (paraphrased) that it sounds great at idle but is just a loud, obnoxious drone at highway speeds - I said about the FM that I hated so much. The Dynomax still has a better-than-stock sound to it at idle, but it doesn't fill the entire cabin with exhaust roar at cruising speeds....

    FWIW I have put Dynomax Super Turbo mufflers on both my Troopers. If you get the 20" body models, they have a nice mellow throb at idle, you hear them on accel, but they are pretty quiet at cruise, you don't even notice it. The 14" body models are too loud, pretty much like the PV.

    I put the 17748 model on my Troopers, it has the 2.5" pipe size which is good for a 3.5L.

    [shrug] I'm sure there are other choices out there, but I doubt they are less expensive, and I know the Dynomax works, without being restrictive.
