I ordered 5/26/14 and am #1002. I haven't received a tracking number yet, but expect it this week based upon the estimated ship date of 8/15-8/29. I would venture to believe you would be a couple weeks down the way.

**For those who have received theirs, when does a shipping email typically arrive and then how long after is the exhaust at the door step? I'm trying to schedule an appointment for install ASAP after arrival. Thanks.**

Quick question to Tony,

i have the 18 inch res + carbon kit and recently i have been hearing a weird frequency while i am cruising around 60 mph and 3000 rpm or less. is that normal and is there a way to fix? i cant say it is the resonators for sure but its hard to pin point it atm.

in no way i am trying to devalue the quality parts FI offers, i have the exhaust on me for over 20k miles and i love it

Haven't been in here for a while but just wanted to chime in that its been a Year and 15k Miles on since I intalled my setup and its running strong and Love the setup I went with

Took the plunge today, ordered 18 inch resonated, stainless for my 40th.

Thanks for the order. We look forward to adding you to the list.

Got my non-res carbon installed today.

Only other mod on the car is Takeda long tube intakes.

There's some drone 2500-3200 (50-70mph) in the cabin, is that pretty normal? It sounds great revving and driving, there's no issue but it's awful loud in the cabin.

Normal? Should've gotten a 12" rez?

I'm number build 997. I received my tracking number a few days ago. My exhaust is due to arrive on the 27th of this month. Too bad I work on the 27-1st. I "might" have to sacrifice some sleep to install my CBE.

Finally got mine installed (888). CF - 18". Beautiful sound, but louder then I expected. Hopefully it comes down a bit. had to brighten the picture up quite a bit for the cans to be seen. CF is pretty stealthy.

Yeah, but on pearl white it is bad a$$. In daylight there is no problem seeing the cf cans (have the same, congrats on the install)

Plus there aren't as many cf exhausts. Makes it even better.

dislimn · 08-26-2014, 02:58 PM

cool toy how's the interior drone at like 2000-3000rpm in 5th and 6th cruising speeds

Not exterior sound level but interior drone

cooltoy · 08-26-2014, 04:13 PM

I have no idea what drone sounds like, but at cruising, there is very little noise. Sound level is somewhere between the stock exhaust at cruising and stock exhaust at WOT.

Hope that makes sense.

The most noise with this exhaust is at cold start and when you put your foot down.

axmea? · 08-26-2014, 05:36 PM

ct has 18" resonators and no hfc or a tp. Not likely to have it. Enjoy you new mod cooltoy.

kooko · 08-26-2014, 06:09 PM

I have 18" res carbon and there is no drone. I never had a aftermarket exhaust and at first i thought it was loud in the cabin, but mainly because we dont have a trunk to block out some of the sound. Now that I have gotten used to it, its perfect for me.

Stssjester · 08-26-2014, 09:38 PM

Anyone in San Diego area that has FI HFC's and any type of FI CBE I can meet to understand the sound and DB levels to make an informed decision before mine ships in a month or so... I ordered FI HFC'S and CF CBE with no resonators... I am willing to drive to you... Let me know.

On my next drive to SD, I will let you know. Going to Santee, CA and Mission Valley sometime in Sept I think.

I have NR HFC and NR CF CBE.
