Default F.I. CBE Installed

Tony shipped me my TDX CBE with HFC's, 18" Resonators, and CF Mufflers right before Christmas as he promised which was great because this and a Stillen Gen3 CAI was my wife's Christmas present (it's her 370Z). My intention was to install the exhaust and CAI right after Christmas but my job kept getting in the way as it usually does, so needed to have a local shop in Temp AZ (Superior Racing Development) that travisjb provided as one of the shops in the area that could do the job right (Thanks Travis!!!) She was getting a little tired of seeing the kit laying on the floor in the spare bedroom
SRD did the install yesterday in less than 4 hours. I was a little worried about how she would like the sound even though I played the video through the Bose system connected to my laptop. I went back and forth in my mind about leaving the stock CAT's on but decided to go with the HFC's and compensate (a bit) with 18" rather than 12" resonators.
We walked into the shop and they fired it up and WOW - she just couldn't stop smiling
About a half hour before we were ready to take it home the AZ skies opened up (yeah it actually does rain here - LOL) and I mean it poured. She didn't want to drive it home in the rain so I got the pleasure
It was rush hour to boot so it wasn't really the optimum ride, but all I can say is that this system is totally impressive!!!!! Butt dyno confirmed the HP gain, throttle response improvement was very noticeable!!! The sound of this Tony's system (as others have previously stated) with this setup I went for is incredible!!!!
Planning on an UpRev tune in the very near future (my present to myself - when I get to drive the car - LOL). throwing in a few pics (sorry had to throw in a pic of the CAI).
Tony - Chet the owner of SRD will be contacting you since he and his mechanics were very impressed with your kit.
I am one Happy customer with a very Happy wife - Thanks!!!!

Awesome! The quality is top notch, so I'm not surprised the mechanics were impressed!

I'm glad you like it. Def we need some videos. I'm sure there are plenty but you can never watch too many exhaust clips.
