+1 TS = Speed
+1 TS = Quality
+1 TS = Sound (more of a personal preference)
+1 FI = Brand Name
+1 FI = HP increase (depending on dyno your looking at)
+1 FI = Quality
-1 FI = Price
-1 FI = ship out time (~8weeks)
-1 TS = Having to sometimes fix rattle on crossmember in rear
+1 TS = Weight Reduction

Both are good exhausts depends on what you want and how much your willing to spend. You wont be upset with either one of them.

I had Fast Intentions first and then sold it and got myself a TopSpeed.

Reasons why I sold my Fast Intentions:
-Couldnt lower my car more than 1.5 inches without scraping the mufflers.
-Freeway drone (It was a little more bearable with stock cats but still there). Sometimes it made my interior rattle more.
-A bit raspy with HFCs (i had the 12' SS).

Im very happy with my TopSpeed. Good ground clearance, no drone and no rasp :tup:

+1 for fast intentions!! Great shop!

How similar are the exhausts in sound? You miht just sway me on the TS exhaust, haha. I like the F.I., but it might be too much money for my blood.

Not my car, but i have the same setup. Sound is absolutely incredible. No rasp, no drone but sounds mean under acceleration! This is the TopSpeed btw with high flow cats

Thank you, Tony

lol, nice Tony :tup:

I haven't had the pleasure of dealing with Fast Intentions, however I have bought a Top Speed unit... direct from them.

I'll share my experiences..

#1. They were kinda hard to get in touch with. I must have called 4-5 times before actually getting to order the system.

#2. Once the system arrived... the box looked terrible. Opened it up and the packaging was terrible. There were 2 dents on the system. 1 on the resonator, 1 one one of the mufflers. TS offered to exchange it, but insisted that it was packaged properly and that I'd have to send it back. The dents didn't affect performance, so I kept it.

#3. I installed it, along with the Top Speed Y pipe. Technically, everything fit pretty good. However the bottom of the system was resting on the brace, which made a terrible rattling sound. I had to wedge a piece of rubber under it to get it to stop.

#4. The tips were not completely straight in the bumper cut outs. One of them was slightly off center, and the tips poked out of the bumper a little too much.

#5. After about 5-6k miles of driving and wear, one of the tips started to rust. This was supposed to be a stainless system. Why is the edge of the tip rusting?

Anyway, the sound and power of the system made it worth it. At around $500, it's certainly not bad choice. But if you believe in having quality parts, I would go with the Fast Intentions. I know that I would buy one (if I could bring myself to pay for it.)

I now have the Stillen cat back which I'm pretty happy with. Combined with the berk HFC it's a little raspy and quiet, but the performance seems to be slightly better than the TS with stock cats.

That is certainly a compliment.

depends on your feelings towards apple, and the ex ceo.

Just ordered CBE from F.I.
Tony, I must say, your TOP-NOTCH customer service is PRICELESS!!!

Thank you for your business. It is greatly appreciated.

+1 FI exhaust. Ordered mine last week. Top service from great guy :tup:
