Glad to hear you're enjoying the exhaust system. It's awesome that you were able to find one brand new in box.

Thank you all for your continued business and support! We especially appreciate your patience during the busy summer season. :tiphat:

My latest Fast Intentions mod came in yesterday.

I've had my TDX system for about a year and a half now and LOVE IT! I put a Stillen SC kit on last year along with an A2A kit so the stock cats had to go. Called up FI and they suggested going with the test pipes and Mil Spec Cats. They look fantastic! Kind of a shame to hide them.

Other goodies going on at the same time is a South Bend Stage 3 Daily, HD CSC, RJM 3.1 clutch pedal and the RJM clutch master cylinder.

I'll go ahead and have Seb do a touchup tune with the new mods just to be safe. Maybe I can pick up a few more ponies. Trying to get to 450whp safely!

It's a shame that they're hidden. Take a few pictures after the install and ENJOY!

I'm getting real jealous with all these pictures. Patiently waiting for 1683. I guess they are running on the "worst case" schedule. Ordered on 4/14/2017, was told "shipping your order between 8/11-8/25/2017. Although this may be a “worst case”.

Just another few weeks I guess. Tic, toc.

I just ordered a set of throttle bodies. I'm planning to install them along with the exhaust and then go for a dyno tune at either AAM or PTuning. Hopefully everything will be here soon!

Fired up my 09 Super Charged Z last night with the TDX exhaust, test pipes and Mil Spec cats. OMG! At idle it sounds almost V8 like with a very deep rumble. As the rpms go up under acceleration it has a Ferrari-ish ripping sound. The car is very hard to drive slow....

Thanks FI for making a fantastic exhaust system!!!!!

ShuuraRG 08-11-2017 11:08 AM

I've been notified that my order is in progress and slated to be shipped by today. I'm #1630, but was delayed by the prismatic tips.

I'll ping back once I've received a tracking number!

I've received my tracking number!!!! Once it updates, I'll know the ETA!

ShuuraRG 08-17-2017 11:09 PM

Well, my exhaust arrived today!! Took about an hour to install, and it's a lovely thing!! Well done FI!!!

I hope a couple of those canisters and tips are for my exhaust build. :yum:

Spartan 1771 08-19-2017 06:58 PM

Got the cats off without to much of a fight, but it was time consuming. I Installed the new cats and while doing so dropped a 14mm extended socket on my head. It gave me a 2" gash pretty deep and a nice big lump. I probably should have gone to the ER and got a stitch or two, but I didn't want to spend the rest of my day doing that. I finished bolting everything else up, but the tips are so close to the bumper. I tried to adjust them down a bit, but no luck. Because of the cats, it was a long day, so I called it quits for now. I'll try and deal with the tip issue tomorrow. Not sure what I'm gonna do about it though.

Add some washers under the muffler isolator brackets.

I'm going to try that today, but even with the brackets unbolted, the tips wouldn't move.

You may have to loosen up muffler's from X pipe & move around a tad,,,a little there goes a long way's out back...& small washer's as needed underneath the 3-bolt hanger's out back.

I was thinking about that as well. I figured loosen everything, let it settle and then retighten.

I had similar issues when I Installed the previous cat-back in the Z. The only difference was I had access to a lift. It made it a lot easier.

Washers and readjustment did the trick!

It sounds incredible! There is a slight rasp before it warms up, but I believe that is from the HFCs. To me, it's very loud and noticeable. If it were my daily driver, I wouldn't be able to deal with it (I have a 3 hour total commute every day), but since it's the garage queen/weekend cruiser/race car, it's perfect!

I took it for an hour drive and I noticed a smell, but I believe that's due to the can of Liquid Wrench I emptied on the cat to header bolts. Hopefully that burns off soon and the smell disappears. I checked all of the connections, so I don't believe I have any leaks.

Now I definitely need a tune. I noticed the idle is a bit high, around 1,000 rpms and it fluctuates: slightly higher and lower at times. I've done a lot to the car in the past 9 months, so I'm pretty sure a tune will correct all of that.

Overall: I'm very happy with this system. The customer service, build quality, fit and finish and performance are all top notch.

Thanks Kevin and everyone at Fast Intentions for a great system and customer experience. Thanks everyone in here for your continued support, suggestions and for adding to an already great community.

Check out this video we just did, where we spotlight an in-house installation of our world-renowned Nissan 370z TDX CBE. Since it's release in 2009, we've sold/created/installed/shipped over 1,750 systems for this model. All created and built in house. The success of this exhaust system has spawned the birth of many other products such as; our long tube headers, resonated test pipes, high flow cats, oil cooler kit, and record setting twin turbo system. All which are still going strong thanks to our loyal and supportive clients.

I have 2 more months to go. It will be worth it though. I am cheating, I already have an FI exhaust. I just
couldn't help myself to have carbon fiber mufflers and Prismatic tips.

HIZZY 08-23-2017 09:32 AM

question....

once i get this installed.... say alignment is slightly off.... do these exhaust systems come with the extra washers to adjust alignment???

i want the shop i choose to install this system to have everything they need...

thanks

JARblue 08-23-2017 10:03 AM

FI designs their products well enough to make sure washers aren't needed, so the answer is no they won't come with any washers - I've installed 4 different FI exhausts and never experienced anything other than absolute perfect fitment :twocents:

That being said ... what shop are you thinking about taking it to that wouldn't have some washers laying around somewhere? :icon14:

HIZZY 08-23-2017 11:39 AM

Nobody is better at finding things to complain about than me, and mine turned out perfect with having the dealership install, even they didn't mess it up!
