Default Fast Intentions 3' Exhaust Reviews?

I just ordered my FI 3' exhaust and was curious to see who else is running this setup with their gtm TT kit? This will be my final piece and my car will be completed and on to project gtr or a jeep build... I decided to go with the non resonated version since tony claimed the turbo's would kill most of the noise but to still be able to hear something. Any feedback would be great!!! After installing my gtm tt setup I was assured my 2.5 stillen would bolt up to the gtm 3' downpipes but it didn't so I had to have a reducer welded in which works but that exhaust is not meant for a FI application...

I was told 9 weeks but from what I hear these exhaust are well worth it. Fingers crossed... Will do a full review after the install on everything so stay subscribed...

There are a few people with them. I don't think Tony ever really "launched" the 3" kit like the 2.5. It's only really appropriate for boosted applications, which limits the number of people that would pursue it in the first place.

FWIW Cosmogirl, based on my experienced with the other FI stuff, you can't go wrong. The quality is absolutely phenomenal.

Edit: nm, he did put up a launch page.

Fast Intentions 3" (Twin Turbo) exhaust is here!

I rode behind "Ron" and in his Nismo. He has the GTM twin turbo kit with bigger turbos and he had the Fast Intentions 3" exhaust. It was non-resonated also. It was not as loud as the normal Fast Intentions but it still sounded great! I think you will love it. PM him for any questions, I am sure he would love to help.

Here's an old video but you get the idea. I love the sound of the exhaust. Deeper than 2.5"'s, no rasp. If anything, it could be louder lol.

I've got the 3" non resonated exhaust with a GTM TT kit. I had Tony put cats in it to cut down on the fuel smell from the exhaust. It's fairly quiet until you romp on it. I had the cans ceramic coated black to cut down on the bling factor. It's a fantastic exhaust.

Thanks for the feedback chuck Iam really looking forward to it!!!! I was going to go with the gtm 3' exhaust but they wanted alot more it and I've head nothing but great things about the Fast Intentions exhaust. At this point Iam starting to wonder if I should have waited and went with the Fi TT kit since their customer service seems a lot better..

Its a fantastic exhaust. No drone, and mine is quiet at idle and part throttle. Louder and lower than stock, but still fairly unobtrusive. It gets louder at WOT, but not so loud that you cant hear all of the awesome turbo noises. You'll love it.

Good Choice. You will love it. I do..............but I don't have a GTM TT kit, so I am not authorized to comment.

I have the FI 3" exhaust as well. Also have the 300 Cel cats to get rid of the fuel smell. I love how the exhaust sounds. It's very deep, limited drone, and comes alive under WOT. Happy to answer any questions as well.

I have been thinking about upgrading my 2.5" TDX to 3" when my car is finished. I wonder if the 3" DP for the MHI kit can be mated with the 2.5" exhaust I currently have.

Iam pretty sure the 3' downpipe for that kit is the same as the one I bought for my gtm TT kit. The 3' gtm downpipe has a big flange, a lot bigger than a flange on most 2.5' exhaust. What I had to do with my still exhaust was have a local muffler shop weld in a reducer to a bigger flange to mate it together. Iam hoping FI starts making more of these exhaust so when others run across the same issue as me they will have a great option to go with. I originally was going to go with gtm with their 3' exhaust but the price was Alot more and I was really impressed with tony's customer service and the time taken when I called.

Hey thanks for the feedback. Would you happen to have any videos or pics of your exhaust??
