Fast Intentions Cat Back Exhaust Installed!

kdo2milger · 09-05-2009, 05:10 PM

The day has finally come, and here it is...

The package arrived undamaged...and all of the pieces were very meticulously wrapped with bubble wrap, so much so that it was a bit of a challenge unwrapping, and caused me to break out in a sweat

10 out of 10

Initial install thoughts:

- Cutting the heat shield on the passanger side of the muffler area made me scratch my head just for a second...then I snapped out of it and did the deed!

- Removing the Evap Canister cover on the passenger side also was a concern...but there is plenty of clearance between the fuel lines and the muffler plus Tony gives you a heat shield to wrap around the fuel line closest to the muffler...

- The rest of the installation process went flawlessly, I mean the fit and finish of this exhaust system is awesome! I give it a 10 out of 10!

- The sound is pure exotic! The z sounds like its ready to rip out of its own skin (paint) as your getting on it! 9 out of 10 and only because I am waiting on Tonys Long Tube Headers!

- There is definately more torque off the line, I was really surprised to feel it right off the bat like that!

All in all I am very impressed and very Happy

Enough of my jaw jacking...heres some pictures and a few videos too

Notice the difference in the size of stock and Tonys Exhaust!

I also did my first oil change and threw on a magnetic drain plug too...

A few shots from the ground...

And a few videos of stationary and drive-bys...

EDIT: added 4 more videos; parts 7 and 8 with windows down and parts 9 and 10 with windows up.

EDIT WASHER MOD: to align the tips...I went with three washers on each bolt, I tried it with two first, but three seemd to be the sweet spot for me

I still want it louder! its loud when you get on it and cruizin is pretty tame...

I will update thread in a while with some cabin videos...

kdo2milger · 09-05-2009, 05:46 PM

The videos dont do the exhaust justice! its so much better sounding in person, and much much deeper than stock...

I cant wait to get the long tube headers on

Awesome kdo2'. You and the RED posse are taking over the place LOL. It's great to see another person really happy with Tony's efforts on this exhaust.

Hopefully not much longer for myself.
