Thanks for the personal feedback!

so.. loud vs quiet. I would like a lil more volume than my stock has but not over the top.. ie neighborhood friendly.

would the 18" resonators you mention as quietest be more quiet than stock.. or still a bit more thrill... or would res-less be a lil louder than stock with out upsetting the elders on the street? Again..daily driver..so...

and thanks!

The 18" resonator option will still be a lot louder than stock. This was the option I chose because I wanted to keep it quieter. My first impressions of it after having it installed was that it was louder than I expected it to be but not in a bad way. It has a great sound to it. If you search on the forum there are some threads where people have posted Youtube videos of the various options.

A little volume wouldnt hurt, still be neighborhood friendly.. and add some more performance!
I just read through your talks with pedZ. He has given you very accurate information about our products!

If you have any questions at all or would like to place an order, please do not hesitate to call me directly...

Thank you, Tony

Default Personal observation about

Fast Intentions. Someone made the comment that the test pipes would cause a little loss of torque. Last night, 1-2 shift (auto trans) under full throttle, I left a pair of dark, squiggley marks in the road. Can anyone help me figure out what caused this?
Thanks Tony, looks like rubber investments will be in the near future.

It is funny how anyone would say that. All you need to do is look at the dyno chart and you will see that there is NO LOW END TORQUE LOSS!

In your case, I am glad that you will be eventually needing new tires! Don't burn them up too fast...

Thanks, Tony

i'm running non-res TP and non-res TDX CBE also 7AT tranny and there is nothing but gains in torque. at a flash light drag event i was spinning or chirping tire through 1st, 2nd, and 3rd. none of which happened until after i added my F.I. exhaust lol
