The BLITZ® NÜR - Spec Series exhaust systems are available as direct bolt-on replacements for OEM exhaust systems. Our exhaust reduces back pressure and thermal stress. This allows the engine to create more power and torque by breathing easier. By utilizing extensive computer controlled design, flow analysis, dyno testing, and precise fitment BLITZ® exhaust systems produce maximum horsepower without dramatically reducing low-end torque.
The quality of the BLITZ® stainless steel exhausts is second to none. Rated as the highest quality, our exhausts perform as well as they look. Unlike conventional exhaust systems, BLITZ® exhausts utilize a slanted mounting design which eliminates unnecessary bends. The specially designed muffler and large diameter mandrel bent piping has no reduction of inner diameter in bend areas. The constant piping diameter size allows for superior exhaust flow superior then compared to crush bent piping.The most impressive feature of our exhaust system is the quiet tone with the silencer on, and its aggressive tone with the silencer removed. Performance increases very by application (gains of 5 - 20 horsepower are average). BLITZ® exhaust systems are designed for maximum performance, improved appearance, and an aggressive tone.
There are two types of BLITZ® NÜR - Spec Series exhaust systems available, the NÜR - Spec which is a rear section only exhaust, and the NÜR - Spec R which is a cat back system. The NÜR - Spec R system comes in two parts. This version also has a removable silencer for road / track use. Because the full system removes the silencer, it produces a fairly loud, deep sporty note.
Each BLITZ® exhaust is flanged and comes complete with all gaskets and hardwear. Providing the easiest bolt-on installation possible. All BLITZ® exhaust systems utilize factory mounting points and hangar locations. A fine balance of looks, power, and durability has been achieved through full stainless steel construction finished in a show quality shine.

if you guys want a higher quality video of exhaust PM me your email addy. i hope you have a BIG account like Gmail or something. and if interior noise is an issue i suggest you dont combine exhaust w/ an intake. ive started removing things from my exhaust so its a bit louder, but it should give you a good idea of what your car will sound like since IMO most all the exhaust have the same sound, pretty much, just louder or softer.

TLW.....I called intense motorsports and talked to ( darren) and talked to him about Blitz,borla,and RMM..... I 'm ready to order so a little sooner than i expected..... Well , i read the borla review on the IM website and it said that it was quite and still maintained the lexus quiteness in the cabin and so forth.... I know you said Blitz and so did other CL members but i don't want to sound ridiculous at a red light and More like a honda civic......Maybe you can give me one last convincing on the Blitz.......Thanks tony
