One of, if not the, biggest problems with the Nissan/Infiniti VQ platforms is the RASP! We all want change up our exhaust and let these cars breathe in order to pull as much power out as possible, but then we are smacked in the ear drums by the hideous raspy nonsense!
Here is what causes rasp and how we can fix/prevent it!!

What exhaust you reccomend for a g37 sedan 2010 i dont want it raspy and on a budget
Well stated…
In the process of solving the same problem in a ‘20 supercharged Coyote motor.
The exhaust system consists of a Stainless Works long tube headers/high flow cats/Y-pipe/factory resonator/dynomax 1-in/2-out muffler/two 3” turn-downs.
Great V8 tone through 3000rpm; after that it gets increasingly raspy, to the point where it drowns out the blower.
So even in my system, with high flow cats, I still have plenty of rasp. The only difference that I’m aware of between high flow cats and the OEM cats is the size of the honeycomb in there. So that wasn’t my first suspect.
Planning on adding a longer resonator; hopefully that’s the answer.
3:14 it actually sounds like my stock 37s, but man does it sound sooooo good!!
It almost sounds counter intuitive but larger piping seems to help with rasp when paired with good resonators/mufflers. Honda v6s with pre cat deletes seem to deal with this a lot with the exhaust options that are out there
Will that CF steering wheel fit in my 2013 g37x
Is that an after market steering wheel?
Will that borla muffler work with a g37 sedan? I just did a resonator delete and want to replace that resonator delete with this borla muffler
I currently have Megan test pipes and Megan y pipe. It is very raspy and I bought 2 vibrant ultra quiet resonators. Where is the section to install them? Do I replace the stock resonators? Thanks
I have the ark exhaust but when im building up 0-20 i hear a small like vibration but not a vibration lag?? What is that
What piping did you use
i know this isnt the same as having a modded car pushing out a ton of power and gas through an exhaust but a testament to this is me having NO MUFFLER on my eclipse, just a big cannon tip, while retaining the stock cats and resonators, the sound difference is almost unnoticeable besides more bass and growl being allowed through with no rasp
It's not just these cars it's almost all Infiniti/ Nissan cars
Hey man! Awesome video. Do u really think resonators do a good job in reducing rasp/loud tone from experience? And how long does a perforated resonator last in a catless system?
That rasp sound-clip was major ear rape
