Sound- I give sound to the FI

Looks- I personally like the Agency (smaller higher mufflers)

Performance- goes to FI if you go by whats posted online which they say avg. 20rwhp 11ft lbs of torque compared to the Agency 10 and 5 (but there are so many variables with dyno numbers who knows? I would hope the agency to be more but...)

Cost- goes to agency I found for 900.00shipped and the FI is 1360.00 shipped

Unfortunately cost holds a little more weight then I would like it to. But 460.00 is a huge cost difference. And assuming the build quality is as good as it is said to be in the thread I read on the Agency Power, I have decided to go with the Agency Power. Thanks for everyone's help with the decision making. Ill post pics once I get it and put it on.

I dunno if you know this or not, but FI has a waiting list, and Tony does a payment plan if you don't have all of it right now. You only need to make a $200 deposit to get on the list and the rest isn't charged until the system is built and ready to ship, usually 8-9 weeks. So you'd have time to save up the rest... Just a thought.

I really like my agency power exhaust. It is loud, but sounds great! No issues after almost 20k miles.

Glad you made your choice... i'm personally going with FI. I'm going to put some money down on one hopefully pretty soon. I like the looks, sound and the extra power it puts out vs. other exhausts.

Yeah it was a tough decision...FI makes a really nice exhaust you can see the craftsmanship just in their pics in sure it looks even better in person. I just wish the cans were a little shorter and higher. Shitty Richmond roads really had me concerned for clearance plus I like the looks of higher more tucked mufflers. But man does that FI sound good too! As you can tell it still is a tough decision for me...I just hope ill be happy with the AP...I have had their exhausts on my DSM's before and was happy hopefully nothing has changed bc I really do enjoy saving some cash here and there. Between the car payment on my Z and an 08 IS250 modding funds are stretched pretty thin haha

Just wondering if you ended up with the agency power set up? If so, how's it holding up?
