So those of you that have an FI exhaust on your car...is it any lower than stock? Or if same depth, is the lowest point the same as stock?

I ask because I've had my Z for 5 weeks as DD and the only time I scrape anything, it's the outside edges of the sport package front dam pulling into and out of my driveway...barely scraping, but scraping nonetheless no matter the angle, speed, etc. So if the FI kit doesn't change the exhaust profile as to height under the car, that's where I'll be headed...

The FI exhaust hangs no lower than the stock. If you don't have issues with the stock, you won't with the FI.

Does anyone know the overall weight of the non resonated exhaust? On F.I. website, it says the system is 47lbs, 10lbs lighter than stock, but doesn't give specifics on which version of the exhaust its referring to.

FI Exhaust installed by Agent K
 
Well, I installed the FI exhaust yesterday. Installation went smooth no major issues. It took about 1 to 1.5 hours from start to finish. Compared to installing my headers, this was a walk in the park; no leaks, no SES light. The tips aren't perfectly center of the rear valence openings but no big deal and I have the infamous hiss now. The craftsmenship is top notch and the packaging of the parts was exceptional.

Anyway, the Z now sounds like it should. It sounds pretty much the same as on FI website: 370Z_ Header.wmv: 370Z_ Header.wmv - YouTube

I got a 'thumbs up' from my neighbor as I pulled the Z out of the garage :) The exhaust thunders to life at start up then settles into a nice audible grumble. This exhaust is insane when you start dipping into the throttle. And WOT is just crazy insane.

Added bonus: POWER. The butt dyno is doing the happy dance :happydance: The headers /FI exhaust combo pushed my cousin and I back in the seats when I punched it in 2nd gear; haven't felt that feeling since my turbo chipped Audi. Thanks Tony and the FI crew.

No I still have a two months to go.

The wait is excruciating!.

But while we're waiting my hubs & his injured shoulder are going to install the RJM Performance clutch today. If we can get through this, the exhaust will be a piece of cake.

My tracking number has been sent, order #985 (5/2/14) shipped for FI 12" res CF CBE and is expected for a 7/31 arrival. Tony informs me that the my res HFCs will take another week or so before being shipped, not a problem! :happydance:

I'd like to thank nearly everyone on this forum with all the tips, tricks, and DIYs available. I've been able to have all my questions answered with quick searches for every mod I worked on my Z, consequently this is my first post on the forum!

Since my Feb purchase of a black '09 370z T-Sp I've recently installed Z1 Post-MAF tubes with K&N drop ins, replaced engine and gear oils with Red Line, and have researched extensively for many other mods next to be performed. I cannot wait to have my incoming FI 12" res CF CBE w/ FI res HFCs installed and enjoy the wonderful sounds this VQ37VHR can produce!

Anyone on here thinking of ordering this exhaust but don't feel like waiting on the wait list? Here's your chance to purchase this exhaust that has barely been used and not have to wait!

Do any of you guys know if a 12/18 inch x pipe for the 370z will fit on a g37 directly?

Negative Ghost Rider! To start, the X Pipe for the G37 is about 12" longer. In addition, the flanges will not line up. Moving forward, all of our exhaust systems are specific to the model we design them for. They cannot be interchanged from Z to G and vice versa.
