Fast Intentions Exhaust Note

370SteeZ · 06-12-2012, 05:20 AM

Uploaded videos of my Z w/ the non-res Fast Intentions exhaust & the Stillen Gen 3's. Considering getting some Fast Intentions non-res test pipes, but I don't want the sound to be overkill. What do you guy's think?

Sounds really good man. I like the way the F.I. sounds. Heard gomers for the first time this weekend and it sounded great. He has the F.I. full CBE and long tube headers on his NISMO. He has no CAI and is using stock filters.

Nice exhaust

honestly, I didn't even know about F.I. until I got my Z. It was already installed, boy, it sounds amazing... Nice Z, and good choice.. Im thinking about the G3 when I get back.. Did you have to reflash the ECU? Notice gains?

the exhaust itself yields about 19hp, and you don't have to reflash the ECU. You can get an Uprev tune which helps, but it's not necessary.

Same, never heard about F.I. until I got the Z.
So glad I came to this forum and it lead me to choose F.I. I'm loving my exhaust... it's the only mod I'm doing until I go FI.

Sounds awesome and looks great! You need a better take off/fly by video though!

Nissanboy · 06-12-2012, 05:35 PM

Here's my setup, F.I. LTH's & CBE no resonators. Bad camera too haha

Huck · 06-12-2012, 05:39 PM

this video is what finally tipped the scales in FI's favor. I was thinking about it for a while, and then nissanboy posted this video. I listened to it like 4 times and then picked up the phone and called Tony to place my order.

Please translate

Fi
Cbe

and all the rest

forza370z · 06-12-2012, 11:50 PM

Fi = Fast Intentions exhaust system. It also could mean Forced Induction depends on the context.

Cbe = Cat back exhaust.

Nice sound clips OP! I love the FI CBE! But I think there is another CBE is equally awesome but people here hardly talking about it. That's the HKS Hi Power. Different exhaust note tho.

I had FI Carbon Fiber CBE on my g35 with HFC. It's not overkill the sound. But I heard FI CBE with the test pipe will sound even better!

hows the ground clearance on this exhaust? also will the carbon fiber sound different?

forza370z · 06-12-2012, 11:53 PM

Actually there are plenty of nice sick exhaust systems out there for Nissan cars. I hope this thread can help people to judge them although they are on G35s.

Tony from FI told me the way they design their exhaust system is to give the ground clearance like OEM. The carbon fiber will have the same tone but slightly louder.

Actually, their newest design makes it about 5/8" higher than oem at the lowest point IIRC, so you gain clearance
