HFC vs non-res test pipes?
Which one would be better for my stock exhaust, looking for a growl but leaning towards test pipes because of the price.

Is the OEM Infiniti Sport Exhaust (sells as an aftermarket swap-out from dealership) an option? I don't know is they're any good or would fit your needs.

I, too, am looking for more growl for less money since I lease, and have to be careful that what I put on the coupe can be taken off in 36 months...

I don't know the difference between the sport exhjaust but mine doesn't have any options like that. I love the sound of the oem and don't want to change it, just want it to be more v8 sounding and deeper.

test pipes or hfc won't make it sound like a V8. In fact, nothing would haha.

Agreed, just got mine installed, can't really tell the rasp unless you step on it, otherwise, sounds great.
