Well, they either do one of two things... Wreck the 350Z, or spend all their time and money on new civic engines because they blow them. I mean, their is alot of potential in the 1.8 Liters, but don't expect to Turbo it, push 30 PSI, and then not have something happen.

Does anyone know why riced-out cars are always wrecked?


I'll record my exhaust note tomorrow.

Im a "tuner" at heart and love factory tuned cars or high end factory backed efforts.
So im on the "AMG" FTMFW side ! A tuner note on the outside but very conservative if any on the inside. Perhaps just the scream of the 32 valves

With that said....

I debated for a long time on getting an aftermarket exhaust because I didn't want anything loud or obnoxious, but something subtle. I ended up getting a 5zigen Modellista. Here is an amateur sound clip that I put togeter:

If you want to check out the CL thread I had on the exhaust check this:

Good luck on your search and final decision.

Well... Every time I get in my lexus I'm looking forward to a very relaxing quiet ride since both my other cars rattle my brain when I drive them!! (not that I don't like that but every once in a while you will need a break) Therefore for me I'm against any type of exhaust modifications to my Lexus!!!

I asked the Eisenmann management directly. They do not have a complete exhaust for the LS but would develope one. The only condition is an order of 100 pc or more. I absolutely would buy one or two as it is really monstrous and fun. Who would buy the other 99 re. 98? I'm not kidding. No questions about costs please. It is less as you paid for the car. I'm not kidding, it is less.
