m37 test pipes

[ssmrico]

which ones are best or yall recommend based on experience ? I want to open up exhaust a little more with those and y pipes then exhaust of course

[austin713]

honestly you are better off just going with some HFC. i dont think the test pipe raspy sound would go well with what the M is supposed to be. this isnt a G35 coupe.

that being said, any HFC or testpipe made for the G37 sedan will fit the M37.

So even if I can get away with no cats over here and have more flow still do the hfcs?

Any test pipe will work. Z1 maybe an option. But no joke about resonance. You may need 4 resonators to combat. Most aftermarket CB's come with a pair of resonators & mufflers. Add 2 more. You'll be able to get it back in control

so best to go with hfc and not with none on the test pipe?

so this x pipe and midpipe that does into the muffles work good? they Bolton to stock test pipe and mufflers ill assume?

The garage line is a dual outlet. Unless you find a CB with dual inlet. Even then. You may have a little trouble having it be a direct bolt on. But imo a little custom work at your local muffler shop does wonders. But yes. Test pipes will directly bolt up to this Y pipe

so im lost lol my m37 has dual exhaust how will this not work? maybe I should look under the car and see how its all routed lol

[armybrat]

It will work. The garage line replaces both the stock front Y-pipe assembly and resonator assembly as a cat back system, to the stock mufflers. You don't need a shop to install these components or do custom work. Hardest part is getting the bolts loose, as they are usually rusted. If you're not worried about emissions then you can also replace the cats with test pipes if you want. They also bolt in without modification.

[ssmrico]

Ok now that explains thanks haha and which test pipes are u referring too? from them too?

[ssmrico]

they said the x pipe kit might be short on the m37

[PostalsQ]

The only reason I like the X pipe is studies shows it adds torque. Which our V6 lacks. As Army said. Take your cats and Y pipe off. I'm paraphrasing here. This all bolts up in stock form. Your trouble will be the CB or future aftermarket CB. Stillen for example comes with a single inlet at the Y. So you would need to cut the single inlet into a a dual and add piping. I personally like the dual piping for our 3.7's.

It is if you have AWD, because of the transfer case. I found that out the hard way, when I bought a custom X-pipe kit that fit a RWD model. Luckily, I was able to lengthen it by adding flex connectors. Since the overall length of the system was the same, I had to remove the same amount from the tubes running through the tunnel to the mufflers. Since you have the 2011 Sport model (going by your sig) it's safe to assume you don't have AWD. I'm almost sure the stock Y-pipe assembly is pretty much the same across the whole VQ37 RWD platform; G37 sedan and coupe, M37, etc. Only difference will be the midpipe assembly. The stock M37 and M56 midpipe uses angled flanges to bolt up to matching angled flanges on the mufflers. The G37 sedan midpipe is a slip fit to the mufflers with a pipe clamp. The G37 coupe uses a whole different muffler system. The midpipe pictured on the garageline website shows angled flanges, which to me, is indicative of a M37/M56 sedan application. I don't see it fitting any other VQ37 application. I would be willing to say that it will fit, but if you're not sure you can give them a call and ask.

thx for the info and yalls time, I called them and he just said it MIGHT be a little shorter, he has not tested it so cant tell me yes or no so said MAYBE to cover him self which I can undertand.

I think ill get this and have my fab guy install incase it needs anything add it he can do it right there and then when im on vacation to PR and also build heat shields for my new top speed intakes I put on

[Danasty13]

Has anyone installed test pipes on there m and all was good? As in no cal light came on and if it did and you took it off did the light come back on?

[PostalsQ]

Dynasty, I believe if you install test pipes. Your going to need computer tuning asap. Even to reap the benefits of high flow cats. You should still get tuning. I remember when I took off my cats on my Camaro, We used simulators. I haven't noticed simulators for these cars.

Hmmmm ima have to look in to that then

I doubt you will gain much power and the sound probably won't be worth it. I don't know about the M, but when I had a G35, I tried test pipes on otherwise stock exhaust it sounded terrible.
