Looking for some Feedback

B996 · 03-31-2011, 02:16 PM

The time has come for me to get rid of the stock exhaust. I am in the market for a CBE which will provide some ponies and a deep sound. I will not be doing HFCs and test pipes at the moment so that is not an issue, but I do want a fairly loud exhaust with little rasp at cruising speeds. After searching around for quite a while, and listening to others' exhaust (videos and in person), I have narrowed down my search to the greddy ti-c or the FI SS 18inch resonators. I was hoping to gather some opinions from others, especially on if the 9 week wait for FI is worth it. Also, I have only been able to find a few reviews and videos on the Greddy ti-c exhaust so if any one knows of any good write-ups I would really appreciate it. Prices are very similar on the two exhausts so that is not much of an issue.

Cheers

Brian

Isn't the tic for boosted cars?

I just ordered mine from FI, and Tony was a joy to speak. If their exhaust is any where as good as his customer service, I cant wait to hook it up.

No, there are several people who have it without boost.

OP, I have the F.I. SS 18" res CBE, and I really enjoy it. I also have the F.I. LTH's and think that sound is very close to what you're looking for. Deep tone @ cruse with a slight hint of rasp, but not enough to be annoying. I've had it on for 8k miles~ and even now with a 1" drop all around have no problems with scraping.

That does sound great, thanks for the post! LTH's are a bit out of my price range at the moment, but damn it sounds gooood.

FI is worth every minute off a 9 week wait IMO. I have the non resonated version with the LTH and love it.
