BuzzLightyear Posted October 25, 2011 Share Posted October 25, 2011 Hi all, I'm now looking at doing the "normal" mild tuning stuff to my G37 (sister to the 370Z, if you're not familiar) and Tarmac has offered the Invidia exhaust at a reasonable price and suggested Berk HFCs to go with it. Aside from the extra cost, I am concerned about still passing the emissions test (2010 car) with the HFCs. Has anyone with a 2010 or 2011 370Z fitted HFCs and had any probs? I'm also speaking to Abbey about a panel filter and Uprev map as well as exhaust options - they have suggested an HKS, axle-back system and are trying to sort a UK price. Any comments or suggestions gratefully received, thank you. Will post updates if anyone's interested??? Buzz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tarmac@TarmacSportz Posted October 25, 2011 Share Posted October 25, 2011 No problems on the HFCs buddy. Emissions etc will be fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris`I Posted October 25, 2011 Share Posted October 25, 2011 HFC's should be fine for MOT. No one has tested yet as no ones car is old enough to require MOT yet You should see some nice gains with exhaust, HFCs, filter and remap. I havent done HFC's yet and reckon I've gained about 30WHP from intakes, exhaust and remap Its worth getting a better exhaust just for the sound alone Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuzzLightyear Posted October 25, 2011 Author Share Posted October 25, 2011 Thanks for your replies - Tarmac, I now have that in writing But seriously, will the combination of the Invidia AND Berks HFCs be OTT though? I want to be able to hear the engine / exhaust but don't want to attract the wrong kind of attention... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tarmac@TarmacSportz Posted October 25, 2011 Share Posted October 25, 2011 This is what yours would sound like. If your not sure just go for the Zorst and add HFCs at a later date... Notice the 'sucking' noise, that is another part of the sound from the HFCs. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GeX7h0j2baE Incidentally, if anyone with a 370z wants the wheels above then give me a shout Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

philb1965 Posted October 25, 2011 Share Posted October 25, 2011 Nismo's, 2.5k on eBay, nice wheels but pricey. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tarmac@TarmacSportz Posted October 25, 2011 Share Posted October 25, 2011 Nismo's, 2.5k on eBay, nice wheels but pricey. Yeah but Tarmac can knock £300 off that price no sweat.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andlid Posted October 25, 2011 Share Posted October 25, 2011 'trooper' need to learn how to edit movies Go for it! (is the nvdia coming with an extension pipe for the G version?, Think I read that the K1 needs to be extended to fit properly) Go HFC's while you're at it, you'l get it down the line either way. (are you doing the work yourself or garage?, might be worth getting quotes in before then) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
