He responded "I see why, it is the most beautiful exhaust system ive ever seen (im not making this **** up). "When i was behind you i was admiring how perfect it sits under your car and i'm just amazed at how it looks"

My mechanic said the same thing to me when he saw it!

but an 11 week wait time.....? That is absurd.

Do not get me wrong, I still want, but 11 weeks is still a long time.

Not at all. They sound great and fit like a glove. It's worth the wait. It's worth the cost. There are cheaper options, and there are faster options. But there's a reason they've sold as many as they have and there's a reason there's a wait. If you can't wait, you might be able to find a used one here. But there's nothing absurd about being willing to wait to get the one you really want. And if you do get in line and wait, once it shows up you'll be glad you got it.

Okay I am sold. How do I buy one? I can count it as an early bday present or something.

Call Tony at Fast Intentions (805) 522-FAST (3278)

He's on vacation right now, but anyone there can help you. Best to get in line now.

All they need is $300 deposit to start.

Meulen · 04-02-2014, 09:18 PM

Seriously, I planned it out. Ordered it in October, put the car away for the winter in November, got the exhaust in March, installed and am enjoying it now!

Do you guys check at the lines that run at 10 - 11 o'clock on the passenger side cans? I cannot tell what that line supplies but it is close to the cans and want to make sure that is safe. I regularly check.

Are you talking about the fuel line that's next to the muffler on the passenger side? You should have gotten a heat shield cloth to put around it with the exhaust?

Fast forward 1000 miles and all you will be doing is finding reasons to open the throttle or downshift. And worth every cent!!!!

I used the heat shield they provided me but I wanted more coverage so I also wrapped the entire length of exposed hose with the reflective metal tape you use for dryer installations. Been over six months with no issues.

It's 100% worth it

zfanatic19 · 04-03-2014, 03:15 PM

100% agree, just installed mine yesterday and I am in heaven, best exhaust by far and definitely worth the wait. Don't settle for a sub par exhaust just to get it sooner, just order it and the time will go by, and next thing you know the package will be at your doorstep

On another note anyone got any tips on how to lessen the vibrations or rattling inside the car? Sounds like it's coming from the hatch area once the car gets up to around 5k rpm or so? I should add I have the non resonated exhaust so I did expect it to be loud, jw if anyone has an tips.
