Fast Intentions is a great exhaust. Awesome sound and performance. Quality of the welds are some of the best I have ever seen.

enjoy, i sure do. Now if i can just get all the sploches that m4a1 left all over the hood. This weekend is going to include some power buffing......

Overall though I love the car. Best car I have ever bought. Now to mod.....

That almost brings a tear to my eye.

But you make it sound like I use the hood of my car as my naughy tissue or something.

Im pretty sure I am going to go with Fast Intentions 18" and Stillen G3 intake and I hope that will cure my mod needs as far as performance goes.....
i plan to leave the stock cats so 18" right?

I cant decide which to do first.

I also want a HD GoPro for using with the car and on my boat when we wakeboard.

ah decisions decisions.

18" is good. That's what I had on the car.

I would get the exhaust first then decide if you want to do the intakes. There's no real seat of the pants gain with the intakes... but you can feel a little extra kick with the exhaust.

The GoPro is awesome. I love mine.

GoPro is epically useful and fun.

I have the HD GoPro and hate it...... The sound sucks. They really need an external mic.

haggomyeggo · 03-16-2011, 05:24 PM

i was wondering about the mic. is there a way to plug in an external mic? Not that i would worry about it while wakeboarding but to the hear the exhaust on the car would be nice

m4a1s videos from the Dragon sounded pretty good i thought

FuszNissan · 03-16-2011, 05:32 PM

Maybe it's where I was placing mine. But I believe there is no external mic

haggomyeggo · 03-16-2011, 05:42 PM

I found a place selling them new on ebay (the motorsports edition) and a 32GB card for 309.00

think i can do any better somewhere else??

SophiaZ · 03-16-2011, 05:48 PM

Have you thought about getting the HFCs along with the F.I. exhaust? It's a great combo IMO..I have no complaints about either

Hit up Ryan at Forged...that's where I got mine. He was offering a pretty good deal. I can't remember what I paid.

my only hangup with HFCs is that my buddy had them on his v6 tiburon (i know its not the same but hold on) and I hated how loud they made the car with his exhaust and how the car smelled if you were sitting at a light for too long.

If both of these things were gone i suppose i would take a closer look but I would definitely want to hear a FI exhaust with HFCs in person first.

And if I wanted to keep HFCs on the table would that change my 18" plan to 12" instead??

I talked to the guys at FI and he said he was about 6-9 weeks out right now so I know I could have a bit of time to save if I ordered it now......so tempting but I would like to have the money ready in case something comes up

I will shoot ryan a message and find out Lou....thanks

No. HFCs will make things louder. The 18" resonators are the quieter option, so if you did HFCs you'd want to stick with the 18.

I felt like the 18 alone was plenty loud enough, though. Didn't want the HFCs at all.

Push370zzz · 03-16-2011, 07:28 PM

nice...they look so good in red!!

SophiaZ · 03-17-2011, 01:14 AM

I agree. I have the 12" with hfcs and I think its great for my loudness likes, but there is drone inside the cabin. The 18"s with hfcs might be more to your liking. Need someone with this setup to chime in.
As far as the smells, I only smell it when I get on it from being stopped but it only lasts a second. And it comes with that "hissing" sound but it gives the car personalitly lol
