I cant find much info on Gintani products as their website is not ready yet. Anyone have more info on their X-pipe?

Im considering these setups depending on the power difference and loudness with my current Eisenmann Race muffler setup:

1. No cats, resonated
2. HFC , resonated


Appreciate any info.

Guy I know has a full Gintani set-up, and he tells me it's loud as all hell. He's trying to sell his Gintani mufflers for something much quieter in order to make the whole system sound better.

You see a few people on M3post trading their Eisenmann Races for Sports after getting an X-pipe in order to get the sound where they want them.

Finally, an X-pipe without those cats smell like ass. If you can get used to it, coo. If you're like me, then I guess not so coo. Granted I had a pretty ****ty X-pipe made by Riss Racing, but I don't think the quality of the system has much of an effect on the stinky level. Keep the cats IMO.

I just imagine it would be as loud as this or louder due to the straight flow design of the Gintani pipes.

From my understanding, Gintani has put ALOT of effort into the X pipe and they offer one of the best power increasing units out there. I'll try to get further details for you. Let me know if you are interested.

p.s. They ARE loud... but gain very good numbers...

Gintani also offers sport mufflers now which should quiet down the whole system. If u run it with ur muffler u should b ok, it should b a lot quiter then my full set up, and im sure u have heard mine at the meets.

Im running catless, I very rarely get the smell. However if u dont like the smell at all just go with their HFC. Either way their X pipe is one of the best. Their design and quality is A+ stuff and their system seems to be making the most power out there right now.

When I thought about it, I dont remember your car putting out any smell at all.

Based on this picture that I found in one of the gintani exhaust thread last night on m3post.

The gintani mid section setup like this, correct me if Im wrong:
Catless or HFC, no secondary cats, resonated.

Gintani does offer 2 styles of front-sections.

A) Quad resonators
B) Dual resonators with HFC's
