Fast Intentions exhaust is here! (continued)

arends177

Nah man we talked about everything, I follow them closely on insta and FB, so we talked about the builds and other stuff. But yea had a lot of questions I don't want my car to sound like a civic lol. It was hard to decide resonator size. Ended up with the 12". Hopefully it's #Raspless. For a turbo I'll ask questions for a month hahaha.

don't knock the guy. my first call to tony was around 20-30 min as well. as for the TT kit we have talked at length many times....but typically that just spiders into 10 other conversations lol

tony and kevin are great at what they do. it really shows their commitment to their customers to take whatever amount of time that's needed to make sure the customer is pleased with what they ordered.

That's what what happened to me. They do so many things, it's easy to go off topic. Thanks to that, I have more parts from them on my mind for the future, like long tube headers hnnnng.

holy hell FI is up to 1290?!?!

I could say that the shear numbers of exhausts that have been pumped out amazes me but with the quality of FI and the customer service that backs it up......doesn't really surprise me lol

damn to think I have set #373 and it doesn't seem like it's been too long since I received my set.

good job guys!

what do you guys recommend? the CF non resonator?

BC416

What are you looking for? The F.I. website describes the difference in the options pretty well.

its been a year dying to get an exhaust. i live in vegas and i dont know how loud it is. youtube couldnt justify it though.

FPenvy

i'm quite knowledgeable with FI products. what are your preferences or expectations you're looking for in the exhaust?

what tone, volume level, drone level, etc?

Check the local section here for Z drivers in your area so you can hear some different setups in person.

Received my Fast Intentions S.S. CBE with 18" resonators & HFC with 8" resonators yesterday. P.O. is 1239 and ordered end of May. Installed today. It's pretty fricking awesome.
Many kudos to FI. The workmanship is impeccable from the tube bending, welding, grinding, polishing of the cans to the placement of the hangers. Went together as if it was built directly on the car.
Took it out for a ride-around and my butt dyno had its hair blown back. It just growls as I went through the gears. The engine felt stronger and quicker. Cruising along at 65 mph, I couldn't really say it was that much louder than stock.
About the demon bolt: that one and it's opposite were the easiest to take out. I sprayed them with WD-40 night before and used a brand new 14mm impact socket (no swivel) I purchased from Lowes. I had to use jack handle for enough torque, though. If I had used a socket out of my tool box I woulda been screwed. You have to be squarely on the bolt, though. Maybe I was just lucky, but everything I read in the Forum had me kinda spooked. I think being a Z from a dry climate, no harsh winters might have helped, too. (I'm second owner, purchased in SO-CAL.)
Lastly, I want to thank all the members who shared their DIY's and collective experiences that made this project go so well.
Now I need a tune-up!!
