Just a brief report on the FI HFC/CBE I recently received from Tony (I was #206). Due to my schedule, I didn't have it installed until yesterday (10/18). It was done by a local (Birmingham, AL) performance exhaust company that I've used for about 20 years to install all of the aftermarket exhaust systems I've bought during that time and their work is top-notch; I've never had a problem with their work over my 20 yrs of doing business with them. (ACME Muffler-(205-324-7697). I'm not in any way affiliated with them; it was only after installation was complete and I had paid my bill that i asked permission to mention their name on this forum, and this info is given only to give forum members in my area a place to use to install an aftermarket exhaust system if they, like me, recognize their mechanical limitations and realize that some repair/ installation work is best left to people who do that for a living.
Total time at the facility was 1:45 minutes and total bill was $149.99. They unpacked my new FI system, and even repacked my old system in the original packing materials so I could keep it and reinstall the original system if the need ever arises.
The FI system is the fourth aftermarket exhaust system I've bought over the years. Previous systems: (1) Flowmaster installed on a 1994 Vette, (2) Borla installed on a 2005 Vette, (3) Magnaflow insalled on a 2006 Vette. Hands down, the FI exhaust is the best aftermarket system I've used. Fit and Finish, quality, sound, and performance are second to none, and the system is actually much better than I had expected. Plus it is the best looking aftermarket system I've seen on a Nismo. Just my two cents.
