Speed Forme uploaded a sound clip of their exhaust. It looks nice, but seems very quiet.

re: airflow concerns. I am pretty sure that the area speed forme front grille covers is already blocked behind the grille by the foam piece that our front number plate screws into. If that is the case I would have thought it doesn't have a huge effect. I am not that kind of engineer, however, so idk.

I think its not so much the covered area itself but is also that the cross area being flat like that could create turbulence to top and bottom of the actual piece itself where less air would theoretically be ingested

There was an article about the design of the new Z and that the VR30 needs more cooling that the VQ and that need lead to the open square mouth of the Zs final design

But I think we could be talking about very nuanced differences in cooling here that might night be real world day to day issues
