Fast Intentions exhaust is here! (continued)

As a wise member told me. Go 18" if you are going to be changing out the stock cats....i.e. HFC, TP, or LTH. Go 12" if you are going to

As a wise member told me.

Go 18" if you are going to be changing out the stock cats....i.e. HFC, TP, or LTH.

Go 12" if you are going to keep the stock cats

Go non-res and any combination if you like it LOUD!

Hope that helps

I have 18" with HFC and I think the sound is perfect!

To me yes.. to others like you no. If it wasn't my DD I wouldn't mind having it balls to the walls loud.

One of my friends has a 350z with non-res HKS and it is LOUD! I can hear him when he leaves my house miles and miles away. I have ridden in it many times and it's not bad. But I can see having to drive it to work every morning I would get tired of it as I am not a morning person. I guess on the plus side I should be wide awake when I get to the office.

haha mine is my DD and it's probably just as loud as your friends 350. on downshifts with the rev match i can probably wake the dead and at full throttle it sounds sooo mean. i got 8k miles so far with this exhaust and it's amazing since day 1.

It sounds good for sure. I would like to check out a 370 with non-res F.I. just as a comparison. Everyone in my neighborhood hates his car cuz it is so loud so it is probably best I didn't follow suit. I was and still am trying to make it to Z Nats and possibly getting to hear one in person...but may be going to NOPI this year and don't know if I can swing both.
