The plus for the fast intentions is it sounds deep, and it's quieter (can anyone give me a good idea of how much quieter?). Negative is the drone at cruising speed. I've watched every video and still can't decide.
I had a Motordyne CBE on my 350z with Art pipes, and my wife has a MD CBE on her G37.

-If you're keeping stock cats, the drone isn't bad, although it is definitely present.
-If you're getting rid of cats, expect drone at highway speeds.

It is significantly louder than a Fast Intentions. My FI even with long tube headers is about 82-85 dB inside the car with the tester near head level. I'll check my wife's car, if you PM me a reminder, but it's not much quieter and she's inside a better insulated cabin and still has OEM cats. I'd guess my 350z was 90-95 dB under load.
