Fast Intentions w/18" Resonators Impressions + Video

Nice man. A 15 minute install, that's gotta be some kind of record. You do it on stands or a lift? Makes me anxious to get mine. Should be here

I did it on stands and I had a helping hand so that makes a difference. But really, the exhaust is made so well that you don't really have to adjust anything. Just install hardware and tighten.

good to hear! I'm putting mine on this weekend with the help of a buddy and his lift. That means after removing the stock, everything should be done in 5 mins right?

Cool, I'll be doing mine on stands as well. Some body said it took them 5 hours or something and I was like Maybe there's something I don't know about this exhaust LOL

Haha, well, let me make sure I am being clear with everyone. It took me about 30 minutes to get the car up on stands. Then it took about 1-1.5 hours to remove the OEM exhaust due to having several uncooperative bolts/nuts. Then it took about 15-20 minutes to put on the FI exhaust. It's SUPER easy once the OEM is off.

That's what I was thinking, but someone stated in a CBE how to question thread a while back that it takes longer and were surprised I did the one on my Challenger in about an hour.....well an hour to install..then lots of tweaking to get the tips level but I'm OCD LOL

Thinking of this thread maybe?
Catback exhaust DIY?

For me, it took just under 3 hours... I usually don't rush things though. Took me almost 2 days (~12-16hours) to do my timing belt on my Z32
