I have a Greddy SP can and custom 2 1/2 inch piping, a 2 1/2 inch test pipe and a 3 inch downpipe. It's not raspy like Honda's with aftermarket exhaust. It's hard to describe, kind of like a low pitched roar. Even if my car was slow, which it isn't, I'd hit boost just to hear my exhaust.

I'm not a fan of the NUR spec its too boomy and doesn't sound as good as an HKS or Apexi system.

Quote » paul_s13 what do you mean it is too "boomy"

[/quote]I have heard it discribed as deep & loud, but it comes with a silencer that people say works pretty good, and in a test i have seen it get as much as 34WHP on a stock skyline.

i was about to order the Blitz NUr Spec Racing Cat back 80mm, Project Silvia 80mm Down pipe and Project Silvia 80mm Test Pipe.

either that or the HKS Super Dragger II 85mm

anyone have any comments on either i was about to start a post on this subject

I have a video of honda accord with exhaust and headers getting a really nasty start on my gir's old car with blitz NUR spec and you can listen just how deep the exhaust sound as opposed to the accord (Just completetly drowned me out). Hey "pulsar gtr" I like what you did with your car and love the way it runs. And for any of you didn't that didn't realize that his speedometer was pegged past 200km/h that's very normal for the FWD cars with this motor. I don't know how much balls he got or his car has, but 160-170mph is not out of range at all for a 250+whp pulsar/sentra with CA18 combo and this I most definitely can testify to!

I have the Blitz Nur Spec as well and i love it. Sounds nice plus its all stainless and that exhaust couple with a test pipe and a blitz downpipe just looks so damned mean when you are under the car working on it. Fat 80mm pipe going all the way back :)

The new trust power extreme II looks nice from what i can tell and it is cheaper than the Blitz. It was my first choice because no one has it but it turned out that it was going to take quite some time to get here so i went Blitz instead, which is also a great exhaust.
