alright then, just because you asked me to, I'll try to throw them on tomorrow. The only thing I have to record with is my iPhone, so I don't know how the sound will come out, but I'll give it a shot. I also just really want to hear it :roflpuke:

my pleasure Z-Girl! I'll put up some more tomorrow, and hopefully some video clips as well :tup: again, a huge thanks to Tony for a badazz product!

Now here's my next problem: where to put the Fast Intentions sticker he sent me? My car is PW, so somewhere on the glass. I'm thinking maybe centered at the bottom of the rear windshield? Or maybe on the middle brake light strip, so that when I hit the brakes at night it stands out? Can't decide... I WAS gonna do it on the bottom of my driver side door...

Ok, so for everyone who was asking me to install the exhaust, I did. It took me about an hour to get done, and that was with a little hang up with using the wrong bolts in the wrong spots. Who ever had the car before me had the same exact exhaust I think, because the EVAP cover was already gone, and the heat shield was already bent back enough to fit the muffler. This really makes me wonder who had my car before me, and if they were one this site at one point. How awesome would that be? Anyway, I digress...

It was dark by the time I got everything finished up, so I don't have pics for you today. Instead, I took this nifty video with my iPhone. I'm not good at reviews, but a quick summation would be this: BUY IT. If you're not sure about this exhaust, BUY IT ANYWAY.

First, the customer service was amazing. I've said it before, and I'll say it again: Tony is the man. Easiest person ever to work with, very informed, very professional, very courteous.
Second, the quality of the product is amazing. I have had a few exhausts in my time, from custom to brand name, and this is by far the best one I've ever seen. It looks beautiful. The carbon fiber is beautiful. The welds are perfect. Everything about this exhaust is perfect.
Third, the install is easy. The instructions are clear, concise, and simple. Again, I have a fair amount of mechanical skill, nothing too major, and this was very easy to do.
Fourth, the packaging was great. You can tell that someone cares about their product and workmanship when they package something so that it could fall out of a plane at 10,000 feet and be fine. There was a crapload of bubble wrap, and everything came out in pristine condition, not one scratch on it.
Fifth, THE SOUND. Holy hell, it sounds deep and smooth. That's the only way I can think of to describe it. No rasp whatsoever, no drone, just smooth sexiness all the way to the redline.

I'll leave you with this little video to watch, don't know how good it will sound on the computer, I've yet to watch it on mine. Tomorrow I'm borrowing my friend's Zoom hi def sound recorder and get some passes and in-car recordings. Until then...

^^^^ ROFL at the pansy remark in the video about switching from a 12" res to a 18"... I know that was aimed at me. :) :roflpuke2:


PS: I work out of my car and I am on the phone all day. Being able to talk on the phone to clients is somewhat difficult with the drone of the 12". If it wasn't for that I would have the non-res. :tup:

Huck 07-01-2012 01:46 PM

Lol I meant no offense, I was just joking around, but actually I've heard that a few times. When I was on the phone with Tony he said that a lot of people will order non-res'd and then send it right back to him to put resonators on it because it's too loud or drony for them. To each his own, I in no way judge peoples personal tastes :tup: I just like to joke and tease a lot.

Side note: I'm working on putting some video clips together right now to give a better example of the sound, I had a buddy help me out with the recording so I think I have some good material. I'll try to edit it and get it up on youtube as fast as I can. Hope you all like it!

Huck 07-01-2012 03:40 PM
