When I got the Fast Intentions cat back TDX x-pipe for my 370Z I had the option of going with either an 18" resonator after the crossover or none and either a 14" muffler(really another resonator) or a 10" muffler. I went with the 18" resonator and the 14" Carbon Fiber muffler and I'm glad that I did. The resonators act as acoustic low-pass filters and bypass and attenuate the high frequency harmonics, accentuating the low frequency fundamental that sounds strong and powerful. At cruising speeds the sound is not that much louder than stock but when I goose the throttle, on a downshift or on acceleration, there is an initial low-pitched bark followed by a sustained moan that sounds good.
So my recommendation is to not remove resonators that are not restrictive to the exhaust flow, unless the loud rasp is something you really want.
Got Rev9 axleback on my 3.7 and i love it, not too loud and no drone. 10/10 for me 👍🏼
Me too, it sounds great. Perfect for daily driving
Did u keep your factor resonators with this set up ? Buying a 3.7 today and wanting too get this
@@donapollo__ Yes
I want this exact setup, was that the only thing you bought for it? Or is there more to the exhaust?
@@astrogunna5382 Yes its the only thing, dont need to do more to it in my opinion
I've always just used washers between the flanges right before the muffler to create a gap as more of a muffler-bypass. And with washers, you can fine-tune how loud you want it by using more or less washers for a smaller or larger gap.
Not really a fan of that. It’s just creating an exhaust leak.
@@SpeedCultureStudios It’s definitely not ideal, but for an almost free option until I get an actually exhaust system, it’s my go-to.
Very happy with my Remark axel back, going on 3yrs for my 3.7 Q50s. Fitment was slightly off but quality is great.
That's very similar to the feedback I've gotten from a number of people. Thanks for sharing your experience!
Just got a PLM axeback for my vr30 Q50 and it sounds great, I have it paired with AMS LDP so that might help a bit but the note is deep and no drone
So when I go to the muffler shop, just ask for a mid muffler delete?
No not a mid-muffler delete. I’m not sure what you’re referring to-at least not in this car. Just tell them to cut the muffler off and put some new tips on.
would you reccomend quad tips for the vq35h system ? If no what tips would you reccomend if im just getting a muffler delete, if it can add a deeper tone?
Depends if that’s what you like. If they fit nicely in the opening then go for it!
Would the Borla 400286 work if I had the hemholtz axleback exhaust? I have this axleback but I absolutely love the SCS exhaust. So I'm planning on doing something similar, minus adding the flow master resonators. I would keep my hemholtz exhaust. Would this make since? 🤔
I’m sure a good shop could get the midpipe section of the SCS to fit your existing axleback
Will the pre-built pipes fit my 2011 G37 and with those I’ll still have to cut the muffler?
I love the fitment you have going on! What are the specs for your setup?
Any recommeded Options for a QX70 - same engine as a G37 3.7 ? Thnx in advance, Blessings!
I’d still do a muffler delete 😂 Simple and sounds good with stock cats
@@SpeedCultureStudios thanks brother 💯 😎 - Kool will do!!
I need your help with my 2015 q50 I like yours and want to bring mine to tune same set up I have a base model !! I love your videos and you help me out a lot but here in Arkansas we don’t have tuning shops I’m trying to build my cat back system like yours as we speak….but thank you!! Your awesome!!❤
Thanks!
There are several good tuners that can tune you Q50 remotely. Take a look at my best tuners video for a list of well know people.
What rims are those
Would the Resonator delete be worth better for a Q50 3.7? Tryna help my buddy get a nice tone on his Q50 but not spend ridiculous amounts
No resonator delete sounds terrible
I got a 2015 q50 and a muffler delete on it. I want to add downpipes but I’m not sure about how it would sound. Do you have any ideas on what it would sound like ? And would it be significantly louder than the muffler delete I have rn?
There are a million videos on RUclips if you need a reference. It would be very loud and extremely raspy.
Has your valve body given you any issues? I am anticipating mine to fail soon and I’m looking for a possible solution.
No issues in 75,000 miles. You can replace it with an OEM one or upgrade to the vr30 transmission
I just had mine replaced, 94,000 miles
I remember seeing an axle back short tail muffler delete for the 370Z from AAM that looked good that I had considered as a low cost option for modifying my exhaust. There was a RUclips clip by an enthusiast who did his Nismo Z and it sounded pretty good. An added benefit is that you drop a good amount of weight off the rear end by dumping that heavy muffler on the 370Z. My Fast Intentions cat back is about 15 lbs less than the stock exhaust system.
Right, weight reduction is something to consider!
I'm planning on an eventual 100 to 200 lb reduction in weight on my Z, without butchering its looks.
What if I went with muffler Delete and magnaflow resonators ??
Is that quieter than just a muffler delete and stock resonators ??
What benefit do I get out of magnaflow resonators bro ??
No need to add resonators with a muffler delete
@@SpeedCultureStudios what happens if the muffler shop gave me resonators first ☹️ due to misunderstanding… so should I just convert back to original then ? How would the noise sound, the same ??
@@SpeedCultureStudios what benefit is there with an aftermarket resonator bro ?
Sorry man you seem like u know what ur doing and I can’t find answers on the internet lol
@@N-1260 If you already installed them, then don't worry about it. I was just saying if you're only doing a muffler delete then there is no need to spend money on new resonators.
@@N-1260 You can just get different sizes. allows for flexibility if you're doing custom exhaust. check out my exhaust videos. You might find them helpful.
What’s the set up bro? I know you said there’s links to it but I can’t find it🤦♂️
don't tell me you can't find it lol. Put SCS Catback into the search and it'll pop up.
@@SpeedCultureStudios oooo ye ye nah I seen that I was just wondering if y Lou have a link to everything. I Fw this set up I don’t want to get something wrong when I order it😂
@@andrewruiz4154 no there is not one single link at the moment. But if you look at the description, i include quantities of everything and even possible alternatives. That combined with the detailed video including pictures, it should be pretty straight forward.
@@SpeedCultureStudios o shit hey I’m new to this so I don’t want to get anything and it sounds nothing like urs ya get me😂 thanks for letting me know tho my boy I’ll take a look appreciate it!!
@@andrewruiz4154 no worries. Thanks for taking a look!
Hey SCS, I plan on buying a 3.0t Q50 soon and wanted to plan for an exhaust. I watched your videos on the SCS custom dual exhaust and was planning on building a full 3" exhaust. I also found a great deal on full catted 2.5" downpipes, and was wondering how I could make the two work together. Is there a specific gasket or flange? I also plan on tuning the car as well.
Everything from the video is the same. Your downpipes are going to be 2.5” so you’ll still want a 2.5” flange to connect. You may need to get a 2.5 to 3” adapter or an exhaust shop can make one pretty easily.
If you’re planning on tuning, and don’t mind a little louder setup, I’d just go with an x pipe rather than the borla or magnaflow and just use the flow fx resonators to refine the note a bit.
@@SpeedCultureStudios Ah, thank you that helped!
I agree. The VQ NEEEDS resonators
Absoluteky
Rev 9 axle back for 3.7 is nice if u don’t want a full cat back. Not to loud just right an affordable.
That’s right
Love the vid! But what’s your wheel and tire specs? 🔥👀
I have a video dedicated to my wheel/tire setup.
Missing my Q 😢
1:20 is an example of all treble no bass 😅 you cant possibly think that sounds good. You have to have a good ear for sound to know what and what doesnt sound good.
Agreed. Terrible rasp.
What are your wheels, they look the business 👍
They are the forgestar f14s in anthracite
@@SpeedCultureStudios thanks for the reply, what size/fitment did you go for, I'd love a set in bronze
You forgot plm or rev9 axleback lol I think that’s the best option imo
I don’t think those are muffler “deletes.” Try still have resonators
Damn I paid 9k for it when it was originally $150 smh 🤦♂️ 😆
😂
Heey G37SEDAN here..
