Thread: Best sounding exhaust tips?

The VQ out of the Nissan/Infiniti's is the best sounding V6 out there...no 3800 can top it. Now you want to get to really good sounding? RB series motors or 2JZGTE's. That would be Skyline/Supra. Sure...it doesn't sound like a V8...but they have their own uniqueness. Everyone has their own thing. And Poli...as for those tips...they are actually a clearanced Roush tip from about 2 years ago. Not sure if they are still for sale and I haven't looked. I paid like $40 a side plus shipping on each one since they weren't sold as a set. They were 3" Roush Racing Dual/Dual Rolled Edge Tips...if I remember right they were supposed to go on the Lincoln LS at one point whe it was still being made.

without sacrificing performance of course

yeah, i looked for those tips and couldn't find them. i've been looking for something that style for awhile now, the problem is they're expensive and i need two of them. not college student friendly lol

I sense tension.

I agree with bluegtp91, it comes down to opinion SnowDrift. You sound like you're trying to push your opinion on what a good sounding exhaust should sound like a little past what other people want to hear. I try to keep an open mind. Each car's engine is a different size and every exhaust will sound different. For me it comes down to how "good" you can make the exhaust sound on that particular car. I just want to get rid of my black cow bell tips lol. They look like air horns to me. Even if tips don't make a difference in sound...

Thanks
