Great install vid man! Test pieps was one of the first mods I did to my G, and although it helps alot with the performance, I wasn't crazy about the obnoxious trumpet sounds. I ended up going with the individia Gemini true dual catback with my test pipes and I love it. It sounds great, similar to stock but with an excellent deep and a bit louder tone. It’s not obnoxious at all and doesn’t sound like a trumpet. Loud is fun but it gets old quick IMO.

How do the welds look, are the threads and bolt holes the same as OEM, what was the quality of the supplied hardware? These look like replica Megan racing test pipes (discontinued).

i actually purchased these test pipes because you made it seem so good but you never mentioned that the flex pipe on the top of the test pipe causes too much vibration for the o2 sensor in the header since it sits right there… these test pipes can potentially knock those sensors out from too much vibration and that’s a 450$ fix for each side because we have 2 headers it would be rounding up to $1k fix all because someone never mentioned test pipes are not supposed to have flex pipes in the first place. moral of the story educate yourself a little more before just listening to this guy before you end up like me . flex pipe on a test pipe is no good what so ever bound to fail lucky if you last even a month like that!

@JoeVazquez

2 жыл бұрын

I have 2 weeks with them installed and I daily this g35 everyday, I performed an exhaust leak test to see if any leaks were present at all and I had none. Saying there’s potential for the o2 sensors to back out is a valid point but to an extent, mainly because most people’s o2 sensors on the headers are basically rust welded to the header from heat cycles. If it really was too much vibration, the first thing to probably go are the nuts from the test pipes to the headers and those are still tight on my g35. Funny thing is, flex pipes are DESIGNED to do the opposite of creating more vibration (search it up), so idk who you’re getting your information from. The only con I can see with these test pipes is because they have a flex pipe they make the exhaust hang a good amount lower but daily driving this thing, I’ve had 0 issues. I can come back to this comment in 2 months and give you an update of my test pipes but your claims honestly do not make sense.
