Well yes, on most performance vehicles though it's done to match engince resonance but performance is the primary objective and note is tweeked afterward. From what I understand the process is reversed with the Z, G37 and GC.

What it basically boils down to is the note you'll get with an aftermarket system is going to be COMPLETELY different, where-as with most other performance vehicles you can still detect hints of the original.
The Z goes from it's smooth hollow tone to an incredibly raspy low bellow, Almost night and day.
