Fast Intentions exhaust is here! (continued)

Boomzig · 05-05-2017, 06:44 PM

Just had my FI 18" SS Exhaust installed by Husam2012. Recd it two weeks ago and waited for him to install.

Been riding with no radio all day.

Got a chance to see his Z Turbo build and setup. Husam is an amazing. Check out his thread in "Forced Induction" on this site.

S/O to FI and Kevin.

Exhaust note is Music!!

***** UPDATE 06-02-2017*****

Okay so I WISH I would have done the high flow cats. The exhaust has quieted down a bit. It's still fun! Either I've gotten used to it or it's now a hair quieter. So if you're on the fence, either go with 12" res, or 18" res + High flow cats! Also, if you have the 7AT, you're going to utilize manual mode more, so, I've noticed higher temps because of this decision, therefor I'm getting the Z1 oil cooler as my next mod (24 row as it seems to be the best balance for year round driving here in Oregon).

LOVE the exhaust, still cannot believe I did three years in jail with the stock setup, and I'm a more conservative personality.

****************************

Just had #1612 installed at the Nissan for $110 yesterday (1hr labor).

Abosolutly ASTONISHING!!!! 1000-3200 rpms it sounds like a V8 from inside the car. Above that it quiets down. Completely transformed the car!

About 6 techs at the dealer were all gathered around when they fired it up and gave it a few good revs. Smiles galore!!! If Nissan was smart (they're not), they would partner with FI and offer this exhaust as a dealer installed option on all Z's.

Couldn't be happier, and I was skeptical about power increases on N/A, but it actually DOES Pull better, especially in 2nd/3rd gear on my 7/AT. From a complete stop on warm tires, she's all over the place under full throttle in first gear

I noticed a huge increase in throttle response in all gears/rpms.

Looks: Lines up PERFECTLY! I cannot find any flaws. The CF Mufflers are $$$$. This alone is why I chose FI as I don't like the chrome fart can look.

I'll post a video when I get a chance using my Canon 5dmkIV + Rode Stereo Mic. I think that will actually pick up the lower tones that iphones and others just don't.

Totally was worth the wait, and cannot believe I drove with that stupid stock exhaust for nearly three years! For those waiting: You will not be disappointed!!!!!

Lucky, ur probably a month out tops

#1583 finally arriving on 11 May! Enough time to make it on ZDayZ! I've had Z1 Headers waiting for 5 months to add to the F.I. DE RTP's. I was hoping I'd have enough time to get them coated like the headers, but it doesn't look like time was in my favor. Hopefully these prismatic tips were worth the wait.

Freeway driving with FI exhaust is a new experience!

Took 40 minutes round trip Sunday Drive on a very smooth four lane highway yesterday and I must tell u. "The FI system has changed how I drive." There is slight drone at 70 mph in 5th but at 73-74 mph it disappears.

When u hit 6th, it takes off!

The Z feels like I dropped a new engine. Highway driving will never be the same.

The rumble and exceleration r mind blowing.

Did you get no-res, 12" or 18" resonator?

Thanks for your business and your patience.

Enjoy the exhaust system! There's no better combo than Carbon / Prismatic.
