Review: 5zigen ProRacer ZZ Cat-Back Exhaust

Havent seen a review for this Exhaust yet, so I figured that I could make one

This Review is for the resonated Version of the Exhaust. There is also a non resonated Version available, however only the resonated is legal in my country, so I've choosen that one.

Name: 5zigen ProRacer ZZ
Diameter-Pipe: 60.5mm
Exhaust Tips: 114mm
Quality of 5zigen is excellent, this is for both, craftmanship and material
Fitting is perfect and like OEM
Comes with all requiret parts for mounting.
Sound: Low rev it has a very nice deep tone, this changes above 4krpm to a bit higher tone. The sound level is just right, not quiet, but also not so loud that it gets anoying.

I made a quick Video so you guys can hear for yourself. The Exhaust has less than 200km driven, so it will get a bit louder over time.

Hope you find this Review usefull. I'd recommend 5zigen and am super happy with my purchase

Lets stay in english, its kinda rude to talk Schwiizerdütsch when noone else understands it :-)

www.underground-racing.ch sells those exhausts in Switzerland with street legal papers. If you ask them nice and they have it on stock you may get 10% discount on their webprice

I had a 5Zigen exhaust on another car I used to own. It performed well. No complaints.
