I'm going with the CBE 12" resonators... I am thinking to order also the HFC (non resonator), but my main concern is the car warranty...
Any experience on changing stock CATS to aftermarket HFC???? You think i will have no issues in case I need to take the car for warranty?

I previously had my G37 Coupe(sold) serviced with Full FI catback paired with RHFCs by Infiniti and never had them question a thing.

With my Nismo, my local Nissan dealer doesn't as well. Its not the "terms of the warranty" that will void it, its the actual person you deal with at the Service Dept @ the dealer. I've never had any issues though, I would say well over half of the 350's they've seen are heavily modified so they're used to it.

99% of the time they're more appreciative of the sound/fitment/quality of the FI exhaust then anything

That's the same set up I got with HFC. I didn't even think about the warranty, I've been doing my own oil changes and everything on my own. Unless there's a recall for a major issue I don't plan on taking my car to the dealership.

I've decided this is my next mod but sheeeeeesh......this thread has confused the hell out of me! Lol. No idea what to get!

Cat Back?
Cat back w/12" resonators?
Cat back w/18" resonators?
HFC's with or with out resonators?
Headers?
All of it? 😳

No idea where to start here! 😁
I guess the objective would be whatever setup would make the most horsepower but not be seriously obnoxious unless I'm on the gas. It would also have to pass Illinois emissions. Any suggestions? Thx!

Don't forget stainless steel vs carbon fibre.

You can watch this thread and get two dozen opinions or just call Tony. He will set you up with the best configuration for you.

there are tons of videos up of all these setups... heres the link to 2 views of mine for easy searching for you....

resonated testpipes, non resonated cf cans. you can figure atleast itll be quieter with resonaters on the cans and hfc but its a start for you sound wise

I posted this in the Best Compliments thread but since this is also about Fast Intentions, I'm posting here as well.

I'd put this on top of my list:

Left home early enough to get to work by 8AM. Jumped on the fwy and it was packed. Traffic news says an accident on the 210 jamming the 5. What normally took 25 minutes ended up being 1:15on the road with 5 minutes to go.

Along Tampa Blvd 3 blocks before I turn right, I took off from the stop light going from the left lane onto the right lane but accelerated pretty quick to beat everyone else. As soon as I got to the middle lane out comes a black and white with his lights flashing. I did not even see him and was caught off guard by this. To be honest I did not know if I even went above the speed limit (45), all I knew is I got there fast. I stopped just before the next light and I was mad at myself ready to tell the officer I'm sorry, you got me. I was also thinking great, I have no plates in the front, car's pretty loud, I'm gonna get a hefty fix it ticket on top of a speeding ticket.

Officer steps out of his car, with his partner sitting inside, officer came to my side smiling and stuck his hand out to shake mine, all while I was telling him how sorry I was and you got me. Told him about the traffic I was just it and rushing to get to work, etc. He was talking over me at the same time saying no, no, you're cool. I just wanted to stop you because I'm car guy and I love what you did with your car.....and that exhaust, it sounds really good. I'm not giving you a ticket. I'm just a car guy and my partner even knows that, so you're cool. How lucky can I get! I WAS SO HAPPY!!!! and grateful. I said cool! we can talk about cars all day long Officer xxxxxxx. He asked Where did you get that exhaust? I told him it was made by Fast Intentions in Simi Valley. He said it sounded really good. When you took off, I had to stop and talk to you about it.. In my excitment, I offered to give him two $10 gift cards from work that I readily hand out when I meet people and I was thinking to myself, oh ****, I hope he does not think it's a bribe, I was just happy. He turned it down of course. He said no you're cool. I told him how cool he was and gave him my business card and said let's connect and talk about cars. We can even go to a car meet if you want. He said, cool and shook my hand and let me off. I waved back his partner sitting in the patrol car. I drove off laughing at myself and what just happened the rest of the way to work.

This my friends is the best compliment I had so far.
