Fujitsubo exhaust opinions/suggestions

Hey guys, I've been trying to decide on an exhaust for some time now and really like how low profile the fujitsubo exhaust is.

So far, this is the only thread I found with info & sound clips

https://www.myg37.com/forums/picture-shar...-surprise.html

I was basically looking for an exhaust that had very little drone & not too much louder than stock but with decent gains. The other exhaust I had my eye on was the MXP.

Based on the other threads, it seems like fujitsubo & invidia are some of the quieter exhausts.

This would be mated with Berks HFC's.

Do any of you guys have experience with this exhaust? Pro's & Cons?

Thanks in advance.

Its amazing! Sound is very subtle but if you like the sound of berks, i think it would give off a sick tone. Not many have experience but i love the sound and the look.

Im not into those exhaust that change the entire sound of the G, hks, borla etc etc...i love the subte exhaust that you can still distguish the G when it drives by. Fuj def wins in that category.

^^ That's exactly what I was looking for. Does anyone else have any opinions on the exhaust?

BTW vinny did you have the fuji exhaust?

I got the Y pipe installed shortly after those videos were posted. The sound has an deeper bass to it than before. Same volume/decibel level, just more bass-ier at around 1-3k rpms. Hope that helps in making your decision. Good luck!

^^ So you only go the Y-pipe? or the full Y-back? I'm a little confused on what you installed since I thought fuji didn't have a Y pipe yet.

any way you can post sound clips? I want to change the look of the exhaust, but not the tone, since the stock sound sounds the best IMO. This seems to be closest to my needs.

thanks

Ok, well intricate did you have any clips you could post? It seems that this exhaust is what I'm looking for. Although, I noticed not too many people have this exhaust or discuss it for that matter...

your first post contained my link. I don't have any videos with the Ichiba Y-pipe but there isn't a significant difference.

Completely agree!!! The Fuji would def be the exhaust I'd go for eventually....or possibly the Tanabe medallion. Ahhhh the mod bug....MAKES ME SPEND MONEY!!! LOL.

Ok, I think I may be going with the fuji! Unless another subtle exhaust comes out soon that makes me change my mind, but as of right now I'm leaning towards fuji.

specs on the Ichiba are 3" outlet, and the Fuji's inlet (based on what i can tell from various adverts) is 2.5" (really 2.381"). how did your exhaust guy neck that down a half inch?

additionally, you mention that tone is the same, but a bit bassier. i really do NOT want a raspy exhaust. i'm an adult. i want the same tone, more bass, more volume. if this combo does that withOUT sounding like a cracked out hornet, then i might just go for it. if i spring for the Fuji and the Ichiba, will i get what i'm after?

i figure that combo w/ stock cats and am R2C SRI is a good start...
