2 hours away. Gotta be a forum member in the Philly/Main Line area with FI exhaust out there. Anyone? Bueller?

If I'm going to be down that way I'll let you know. If you find your way up the Northeast Extension, let me know!

You may get an equally good product with HKS but you'll never get FI's customer service

Because an exhaust that weighs more than stock and still uses a Y pipe like the stock system and costs as much or more as the other exhausts mentioning in this thread is clearly a better choice. To say nothing of its questionable power gains.

You'll be scraping more than just the exhaust at that point trust me as the front sport chin spoiler scrapes like crazy and I'm on H&Rs which only lowers 1.3 front and 1.0 rear.


My vote FI FTW...
My friends is a Nismo.. But that being said my 350z was only 3.5 inches off the ground and even a Nismo lowered 1.5 inches it will still be higher then that and I never scraped once.
The FI exhaust appears to sit a little lower then most exhausts.

Also it depends on how you drive, what state you drive in etc.

I just wanted the OP to consider that as I know my friend was pretty upset when he ruined his carbon cans from FI.

You said you wanted deep/loud?
This is me as of last week. Shot with a GoPro3 Black so its as good as you can get without professional audio equipment to capture the sound (dont worry im getting that too soon :P)
the lens gets foggy till like 30 seconds in (because i forgot about exhaust fumes)

startup (not really cold start as i went to take some pics beforehand)

In terms of loudness what order would you guys put Gemini, Ark Grip, AA short tails and FI exhaust ? I have the AA short tails (makes my ears bleed) and really like the looks and sound of FI but I want something that is quiet below 4k and then above that quieter than AAM would be fine. I like ARK because it sounds good and its not loud, but it seems as if they have fitment issues and for the price they charge that's not OK. Anyone know if that has been fixed ?
