Catback exhaust selection

Nice!

I'm looking at 1cleanZ's EXACT setup, RHFC + non-res. That's the kind of sound I've been after for over a year lol

Can you please post about how good FI is again.

FPenvy

oh but of course. I'll do it with great pride.

FI is the choice to make.

their product quality is top notch. the sound is perfect and the multiple options makes it tailored to each owner's personal preference. no other exhaust offers that aside from a cutout valve on the overpriced armytrix setup. the power gains are there too that match or beat most other systems available. all that paired with their unmatched customer service makes the choice a no brainer.

I'm running the AAM catback with 5" tips for the Nismo. I LOVE the sound as it's not obnoxiously loud and I feel this is how a sports car should sound from the factory. The quality of the kit is impeccable too. Which makes me wonder...

How come there isn't much talk about the AAM catback here on the forums? Everyone is always talking about Fast Intentions or ARK. I'm sure those are great systems and if I had one of those instead, I'm sure I'd be in line to advocate that choice. The AAM isn't cheap also and is in the same price range as the FI system. HP gains with the AAM, from what I've read and researched here, are in the same ballpark (maybe a little less) as the FI system.

So I'm just wondering why AAM doesn't seem to get as much support as the others

Because the FI TDX system is just that good. Why go for second best?

Then that makes me ask what makes it "that good"? Saying the AAM is second best is fine, but what is this based on?

TBatt

The overall experience. FI build quality, customer service, sound, ease of installation, fantastic looks, number of customers.......

When it comes to sound, to each his own.

sound is a personal issue, tried the FI, too loud for me..the OEM nismo CB is the best for me..

FPenvy

i agree that in regards to price point, quality of construction, and power gains they are in the same ballpark.

however it's an exhaust system so for these 2 systems it comes down to only 2 ways to decide.

1. the sound. that's what it's really all about. although AAM has options on single and dual plus a few oher option they do not have the customizable options of the system the FI has. also I've heard every version of the FI system and every version of the AAM system and PERSONALLY I like the FI sound better.


2. is the customer service. I PERSONALLY have never had an issue with AAM but I have seen some on here say they did

FI really does have the best customer service I've dealt with in any aspect of buying a product car or non-car related.
