First of all, let me just apologize for not posting a review earlier, I left town immediately after my install.

1. Arrival: I arrived about an hour and a half earlier than my install appointment because my GPS told me it would take much longer than necessary. Tony was very understanding and let me know that they needed about another hour to set up. I went and got some lunch, and within the hour they were pulling my car into the shop.

2. Fast Intentions Shop: Upon my arrival to Fast Intentions, I was very impressed with their shop, lifts, and mandrel bending machines. For a custom fab/exhaust shop, they are extremely clean and organized.

3. Workers: I don't know if Tony is paying these guys in Trident layers gum, but let me just tell you, these guys were working like crazy. So focused and diligent in what they were doing, but also fast and efficient. They were all working on something different, but seemed like they were all on the same page.

4. Ok, so now for the exhaust review. The FI exhaust is really a high quality exhaust.

Look: The SS canisters are by far my favorite looking i've seen on any dual exhaust car. The tips match up perfectly with the holes in the bumpers, and really pulls the asthetic look of the car together.

Fitment: If anyone was having issues with their install as far as the fitment goes, let me lay that to rest right now. The fitment is PERFECT! Just like you see in the pictures, one tech was holding the level on the x-pipe while Tony tightened everything down. To really nail the fitment on this exhaust, it will be best to have someone else to hold the x-pipe level.

Sound: Dear god! The first time we fired it up at the shop, Tony said he didnt think it was loud enough. It is the exact sound that I had in mind and I almost don't want to mess with it but I know in the future I will be getting the FI LTH to add som powa! The sound is a mix of an exotic acoustic harmony with a dash of beefiness when you really get on it. The first time I cold started the car, I have to say, I got a lil chub.

Craftsmanship: I recently took my car to my buddies house to show him the exhaust. He has been a master welder for 15 years and when he saw the welds, he told me that he has not seen welds that good on jobs that he has personally done. I've seen his work and its also very legit. WOW!

Customer Service: I believe the biggest selling point for me was the level of customer service that Tony and the staff at his shop bring to the picture. It gives you a certain peace of mind knowing that you are dealing with not only a reputable company, but also one that will go out of their way to truely satisfy their customers. Tony, I again thank you for everything, after almost a full week of driving, I get the same feeling I got when I first purchased the car. I find all sorts of stupid reasons to go out and drive around. My financial advisor(fiance) and my wallet hate you, but I am very happy!

For anyone thinking of getting an exhaust, FI should be your first choice.

Sorry this was so long! Thanks for reading, and if you found this helpful rep me please!
I never thanked you in my earlier post. Shame on me!!!
It was a pleasure meeting you last week. Thank you for the business. It is greatly appreciated. Do not hesitate to ask if you need anything...

Thanks, Tony

Looks pretty good, I love how aggressive this exhaust looks from behind the car. Makes the car look low.
