You don't need that over priced nonsense. Go custom for everything.

What you needs to do is sell your junk coilovers and use the money you want to spend on the meister and get V3 or AST4100. Lol

Bc I love...my buddy has KW V2 and they is no difference in ride comfort....and he has 19's. I will be getting getting new coilovers and AST would be 1st choice. I am looking at getting BBS F1'S if I can get them in correct offset. I will get rims and coilovers at same time.

Maybe ride comfort is the same but go on the track and you'll really see the difference with KW V2 and BC, especially when it's tuned properly. FI's are sick wheels! I hope you're going to go 18 or 19s this time around lol.

19's for sure this time, I still want to use the same size tire (295's rear 245 front) so I am guessing I would need the same offset as I have on my 20's...wondering if the tire "width" changes as you go down in rim size? I have gone well over 150+ with BC's and they handle great...but I am getting a bit vibration...this could also be from untrue rims LOL!!

Are they much wider than the bottle style?

Yes, quite a bit...I will get a pic of them next to my others in a few. Great quality though!

Then they definitely won't fit side by side where the cats used to be

I would say, no possible way!

Hmmm downpipes > ypipe > 3.5" single > super quiet resonator where secondary cats are > 3.5" inch single > ypipe > 3.5inch dual > bottle style resonators > tips

I bet that would be the best sounding straight pipe setup with zero rasp.

You have to many good ideas...damitt! I just bought (2) 2.5" resonators lol!

No big deal...the exhaust shop can easily expand the inlets of the resonators.

Worst case just go 3" instead of 3.5"

The meisterschaft exhaust on the Nissan GTR is similar to this setup minus the resonators.

Going to put resonators in the OEM exhaust today to test fit sound...I could put the super quite ones in the tail section to see how they sound...found a bad bend in the exhaust where they welded the cat delete pipe in. I just hate welding in New resonators then cutting them out for a new exhaust...I like New all the way around for the new exhaust. I'd it bad to use used resonators...wonder if they are hard to take out and reuse.

shadow191 · 06-28-2013, 11:42 AM

Nothing wrong with reusing resonators. As long as they're not damaged, I don't see the problem. Welding them in and then cutting them out isn't going to cause any damage. I'm actually thinking about putting the resonators I cut off the Invidia exhaust on my Infiniti onto my 335 to replace the secondary cats. They're exactly the right size/length.

Get the bottle resonators installed where cats are and ultra quite resonators where mufflers are....all I can say is WOW!!! No rasp, no drone and deep growl....exactly what I wanted!
