Don't think. Just do it. Best decision you will make for the Z.

^^ Agreed. I'm even thinking about replacing the Nismo S-Tune CBE and Berk HFCs on my 350Z with F.I. The quality and workmanship is unrivalled.

Does anyone know if FI will sell the carbon fiber mufflers separate? Kind of a crazy question but I'm kind of curious. I ordered mine with the ss mufflers but all this extra hype and emphasis on the CF mufflers are making me wonder lol

Gaaaahhhhhh! all these posting makes me want to change my order to the 12" instead of the 18" res. Don't even say non-res, I would! but the GF was getting a headache with the old WRX with SPT CBE. Tooo loud for her, I can only imagine how loud the non-res would be on the Z, it's a shame. Any suggestion guys? 12" res is good for a DD without getting the Girl a headache? hahahah

I was on the same boat as you. My girlfriend hated my last car, because she complained that the exhaust was too loud. Especially living in a gated community, we have to keep things down a bit.

I've considered the 18", then I heard people complaining that they want non-reson. So I switched it to 12" SS to get a little bit more volume out of it. However, I met up with a forum member, RoyaltyB, to listen to his exhaust Non Resonated CF and it definitely blew me away. Literally. I can tell you that non-reson is loud but for all the right reasons. On regular cruise, it isn't even that bad. What is loud for you may not be loud for others. It's subjective .

Anyway, you can't go wrong with any of their products. Just telling you my personal opinion after listening to the non-resonated cf. It's pure awesomeness

I really appreciate your advice Genesis, I'm definitely going to switch the order to at least a 12" reson. As for the non-res i'm can't quite take that step yet. There is a saying, "happy wife, happy live" hahahaha even though she's not my wife, she's always with me so I need to be mindful of something that she'll be okay with. But as for the the noise in the cabin... how is it with the windows up with the non-res CBE? Genesis? or anyone who has a Z as a DD running stock cat with FI Non-res CBE? Any info will be greatly appreciated. Thanks guys.

Intact OEM exhaust minus F.I. non-resonated stainless steel cat-back here. With windows up the volume is not obtrusive one bit. I love the deep, consistent rumble it generates even at idle with the air conditioning on, which is also far from obtrusive. Again, subjective to each individual so your best bet is to ride with someone with the set-up that you plan to get. Then ride with an even cooler dude (or chick) with a non-resonated set-up.

I wish I went with non-res. I have the 18 inch with Cf mufflers and LTHs.

Tony any chance I can just purchase the non-resonated section? How much would that section cost?
