according to the comments, the 1st guy was the prototype for Stillen so he got the catback for free and didn't spend the $ for the intake. It sounded a bit better than the 2nd one which is sound like farting

The first one, the Stillen doesn't sound half bad. Not as good as the 3.5 obviously but better than stock.

The second one, the Nismo... woah. REALLY does sound like it's farting. I thought you guys were just joking around.

I'm not surprised the second one sounds super farty. He has a high flow cat, a header (headers make a huge change in sound), and some "custom" 2.25" piping leading to 2 nismo can mufflers. I'm sure if it was just a cat back (nismo/stillen designed), no headers or high flow cats, it will not sound so aggressive

1st of all...cameras suck at recording exhaust tones...the stillen catback on the 2.5 sounds like heaven in person...2nd am i the only one with a brain stem to realize that the farting video catback is for the 3rd gens...and it also sounds like the guy removed his resonator...member datalux has nismo catback on his 2.5 and it sounds great...search for his name and find his vid

I never liked the way Stillen sounded with the 2.5. I've heard numerous sound clips and there's just something that I really hate about it.

The guy with the nismo exhaust, it looks like he has some fake ebay version of it. That is not what the nismo exhaust looks or sounds like. If that, by any chance, is real, then he's got a really bad exhaust leak.

Here is what my nismo exhaust sounds like:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DUgFmu5k ... bBFAUXQkpQ

I am still trying to get an external drive by clip.
