- 08 G35x 3.5 L VQ35HR AWD - Manzo exhaust review
Direct fit, looks good sounds great , no drone, no popping no buzzing or leaks, not much louder than OEM, smooth deeper tone, little roar when you get on it.
Very nice for the price ... Mixed reviews in G forums, I needed an exhaust for the price thought I would buy it, try it, give it a review.
Manzo y-pipe fit the AWD perfect
Cat back fit perfect, Mufflers are big like OEM style, Mufflers attach to Mid-Pipe with 2 bolt flange and gaskets not slip
Nice clean welds, Mandrel bends very smooth no crimping, heavy flange end plates.
Tail pipe Tips, are beveled not just a cut off, they are not polished like chrome, more of a soft brushed finish looks good no complaints.
Overall - Great fit, looks good , sounds great, no issues very happy, time will tell

Manzo = you get what you pay for
Very happy, So far it has outlasted the prior Stillen exhaust I had the G, Stillen exhaust was loud echoed in the cab and it stress cracked in several places lasted about 3 years till I stopped welding the cracks and replaced it, this Manzo exhaust has been on the G about 5 years 50K+ miles, I bottomed out on the flex pipe once and cracked it, that was a road hazard, but other than that this has been a great exhaust .. I would buy it again
Update - The Manzo Y-pipe cracked , flex pipe on drivers side - the pipe is still in great shape the flex started leaking - mid pipe & mufflers still look and sound great - replaced the y-pipe 9/2020 lasted just over 2 years round 22k miles
Just an update:
9 months about 8.5k miles and an Ohio winter later, the exhaust is still sounding good no issues. no cracks no leaks.
If/When it ever gives me a problem I will follow up.
I mainly bought this exhaust to see how it holds up, "Someone had said the y-pipe broke/leaked in less than a week, the mufflers droned, it hit the floor, I have not experienced any of that seems to be holding up well so far..
I’m thinking about going with this because I want a cool sporty sound not to loud be ok
Love my manzo exhaust. Z1 Test Pipes next week!
post some video
Calisole check out @vqsedans on instagram I have it on there. Shoot message there
got it
I got the Z1 HFCS and manzo Axle Back. Thinking of getting the full cat back from them
Would you say a muffler delete is quieter than this exhaust setup because that’s my current setup
I have this set up and the Manzo mufflers are just slightly louder than the stock ones so a muffler delete will be much louder.
looks good boss !
Good morning, any updates? And would you recommend this? I dont want loud cabin noise.... I did so much to my exhaust setup and now I had to put the mufflers bk on. I have HFC, Y Pipe, resonators and had the muffler delete. But they are back on.. and all of this I haven't noticed any power gains. Lol. I do have a nice growl but want a lil louder and some added HP. thank you sir
Did you buy the rwd exhaust or awd
Sorry for the late reply, it is for an AWD .. the difference is the Y-Pipe I believe ..
AWD
Any HP gains?
To be honest I dont drive the G35 much, it is my wives car.. Manzo claims "Improved Torque and Horse Power" doesn't say how much if any, nothing real noticeable in my opinion..
Heyo I have the 08x as well. When I looked up that part number online, most descriptions say it doesn’t fit the X models. Do you know why that would be the case?
Sorry for the late reply, The mid pipe back "Manzo Stainless Steel Catback Exhaust - Part # TP-CBS-IG074DV2" should show it fits 07-08 G35x Sedan
Y Pipe w/ Flex Pipe for Nissan 370Z '09-'15 G37X AWD G37x 09-15 VQ37HR .. G37x AWD Sedan Y-pipe should be the same as G35x AWD Sedan.
For example go to Autozone(dot)com look up an exhaust for "random G37x Sedan 09 and up" - then look up exhaust 2008 G35x Sedan
2011 G37x ( Bosal y-pipe Part # 50362MGF-BX )
2008 G35x ( Bosal y-pipe Part # 50362MGF-BX )
Same part, I believe there is a difference from AWD to RWD pipe - You need AWD pipe to clear the transfer case so a G37 RWD pipe may not fit but from what I have found the G37x 09 and newer is what I have cross referenced and use on this G35x.
I hope that helps
What’s the point of the manzo brand Y pipe? It’s the same inlet and outlet size of OEM so why bother buying that?
OEM was much smaller diameter if I remember correctly 2.25" inlet 2.5" outlet, the Manzo pipe is 2.5 inlet 3" outlet, side by side differently larger diameter than OEM and the mid pipe on the stainless system inlet that attaches to the y-pipe is 3"
@@rokmoto67 ah I see. They have it mislabeled online then. On eBay it says “2.25 inlet and 2.25 outlet”
@@TakeThis_L Possibly a different model ? I know the one I used was 2.5" inlet - 3" out .. I hope that helps, the Manzo y-pipe lasted a little over 2 years in Ohio winters "flex cracked and was leaking", I replaced it, the rest of the exhaust s still shinning like new
@@rokmoto67 yeah I believe I was looking at the Manzo v2 w/o y pipe but the inlet and outlet is the same as oem the seller told me I have to buy the y pipe and I don’t see why if the oem y pipe is the same size?
Anyways im gonna try and do the SCS custom exhaust setup instead, if I buy the manzo v2 and a y pipe that’ll be about $600-$750 so might as well put the money towards the custom exhaust.
Any drone? And hows the cabin noise?..Thinking about buying this. Thank you sir.
There isn’t any O2 sensor ports on the Y-pipe, did you have it installed or just left it out? Any check engine lights?
08 has the 02 sensors in the converters none in the y-pipe or cat back that I replaced .. I think it has 6 of them 3 on each side 1 in the manifolds and 2 in each converter upper/lower.
The 08 does not have 02 sensor on the y pipe, it 1 - upstream on the manifold and 1 - downstream on the catalytic converter no CEL
Stock cats?
Yes
What catalytic converter do you use?
factory converters
Piping sizes?
y-pipe 2.5" at inlet 3" at outlet - Mid 3" at inlet 2.5 at outlet, tail pipe tips 4" ... in general the piping is 2.5 opens up to 3" at the mid pipe connection then back to 2.5" as it splits to the mufflers. was much larger than OEM pipe.
