Holly crap!!!

Yeah that blitz one is sick as hell and perfect lookin!!! Also sounds like crap. That's the exact look but only if they sat at the edges of the rear bumper like the gtr and even the damn Acura TLS looks ***n crazy sick in quad tip.
If you see the edges of the stock kit in the rear is flat and if you left only the first slat/ridge of the diffuser and had them right there it would look perfect. It just doesn't look right in quad when they are not at the edges!!!

You may want to look into getting something custom made, but then you have to keep the stock diffuser in mind. Where the exhaust is positioned now has cutouts in the diffuser, if you wanted to extend them to the edges ...you'll have to fabricate a new diffuser or modify the stock one for a clean look.

Guys, you can't judge an exhaust by a video at all. I don't care how good the video is, how well production was. I've yet to hear an exhaust that sounds like a video. Only way to hear an exhaust is in person.

My Perrin, 100% different than videos. HKS Carbon-Ti on my VIII, 100% different than videos. ETS, 100% different than videos. I mean you can get a "feel" for what it might sound like, but they are never the same.

BTW, tips look way too big on the blitz. And I'm a blitz fanboi.

I have a new set of Vibrant Tips to put the dual tips closer together and slightly larger

Tips are too big for the Evo rear IMO.

Not an Evo, but still close enough.

Now that looks much better due to the smaller diffuser.

Blitz had to make the sound like that to meet the new JDM regs from 2010.

I agree. My favorite exhaust for the X is the dual tip ETS! Sounds mean
