I know your new to the Z scene here in Orlando, this weekend there is a get together and I know I just ordered a setup from Tony so you can see Matts (Osiris) or any one else around here, there is at least 4 or 5 ppl who have FI setups here in this general area of Florida. I just hate the 3 month wait but Ive heard nothing but the best from FI so I will wait

When you place an order all I require is a $300 deposit. This deposit does go towards the entire balance. I do not charge the remaining balance until your exhaust is ready to ship. At the time the order is placed I create an actual invoice for you. Then I will email you a PDF copy of that invoice to keep on file. Now all of my exhaust systems are hand built custom for each customer right here in house. I rarely have anything in stock. Everything is built on a first come first serve basis and right now we are 11-13 weeks out from the time your order is placed until the time it will ship. This may possibly be an over estimate, but I would rather under promise & over deliver. Now the lead time does not start until the order is placed and the invoice is created. Once your exhaust is built and ships I will email you your tracking number.

If you have any further questions or would like to place an order, please do not hesitate to call me directly.

Thank you, Tony

Thanks for the reply!! Ive got to get out and hear a few of these exhausts in the flesh before I can make a decision, youtube clips only tell you so much. My biggest fear is highway drone so ill have to take a few rides. Thanks!

Left work early today to go pick up a very special delivery...

#641 - FI exhaust w/ 18" resonators and CF mufflers (even came with streamers in box! :P)

Had a few issues with Customs here in Australia but Tony sorted them out in no time.. Only downside now is that I've gotta wait until next weekend to get it fitted!

Will report back once installed and driven

What was the customs hold for? They ship UPS and I worked UPS international shipping for the last 9 years. I would think the exhaust would be pretty cut and dry (item/value/address/cntry where it was made) pretty easy. Looks good though!

Hey!! I'm looking for a particular video clip of the F.I. That started out w a rap song and underbody shots of the exhaust....black (?) Z w a walk around ...launch then drive by....can anybody help me? I want to show mr. BC the awesomeness which is F.I. Thanks for any help!!!

KN21283 · 01-25-2013, 04:23 PM

Just updating the count. I'm #648 and I got my tracking number yesterday.

Meowzah123 · 01-25-2013, 06:16 PM

642 installed today! 18 res cbe was a great choice

the shop had a hard time installing it, but it wasn't the exhausts fault. The previous owner had hit sumthing hard enough to dent the floor pan where the sun frame brace was. Tony spent 30 mins on the phone with me and a tech trying to figure out what was wrong. Overall I'm super satisfied with the exhaust but even happier with Tony's customer service. 6 out of 5 stars

thanks again for your help tony.

Wow, that was a PITA the other (night) dealing with customs in AU. I was actually going to call you to see if the exhaust made it through. I now see that it did.

Enjoy it and if you have any questions, do not hesitate to ask.

Thanks, Tony

Thanks for the positive feedback. I am glad that it was able to work itself out in the end.

I know the feeling - watching everyone else with their fancy photos and videos whilst sitting there waiting for yours to arrive hehe.. Time actually flies once you've ordered it, its only the final week which felt like it went foreverrrrrrr!

Not sure the exact nature of the delay but I think it had something to do with Customs wanting to see an itemized list of what was in the box (i.e. lead pipe, muffler etc.) I managed to catch Tony in the office late that night and he sorted it out directly with them.

Thanks again for your help the other day (night) Tony. Hopefully this was just a once-off and not a sign of things to come! Will let you know if I've got any queries during/post-install, otherwise I'm sure I'll be in touch when I decide its time for HFCs/intakes :P
