Agreed. You could fit the muffler box in the hatch and tie the hatch down, but the headers wouldn't fit in with the cat back. One or the other.

I was able to put all components of the CBE in the back of the Z (EDIT: I did not take the Cargo Cover out it seems - it just fit fine with it still installed), and I put the HFC's on the Passenger side foot well. See pics at :

After driving the car for 2 hours straight after install, the sound is much smoother now, with way less reverberation inside (which is what bothered me).

It is really fun, the whole car opened up, love it

Mine came in just 1 box. I unboxed it and the whole exhaust fit in my car. I made a 75 mile trip with the exhaust in my car and everything was perfectly fine. There is enough bubble wrap not to scratch anything in your car also!

It still sounds amazing though!

Meant to ask this question as well, thank you.

Assuming you can't fit a passenger in the car with the extra exhaust in it, right?

If you only have the CBE, it should all fit under the hatch, in which case you can carry a passenger. However, if you are also carrying the HFC's then they will have to sit in the passenger footwell, so no passenger then!

What number are we on now? I should be inside a month

SA370 · 10-12-2012, 01:12 AM

^^^i spoke with tony today, he gave me a ship date range of 10/29-11/1 and I am #593, hope that helps.

Also, I changed my order from stainless to carbon fiber, can't wait.

I still can't believe the difference in fun factor after getting the FI CBE... it is really astounding.

Thumbs up

to Tony, great work.
