Your best bet is to call Fast Intentions and ask for Tony. He's too busy making sure that each product come out on time :tiphat:

Fast Intentions: (805) 522-3278

PS

I ordered mine awhile back. I ordered it with the 18" resonators CF mufflers and added their 300 cell HFC. I'm right around 620ish and my installation time is January 5, 2013. Hang in there folks!

So far my order is

Cbe with 18" res
Non res hfc
And some gen 3 intakes

My question is for all those that have heard them in real life what is your preferred combo with a hfc the 12 or 18 res or no res at at all ??????

so can't decide and YouTube doesn't help!

My car is daily driven for work so I need it to be a little tame when I want it to be, deff don't mind if its of its head when opened up though noise is not a concern then lol

i'm running full non res setup (CBE & TP) with CF cans and it's a monster when you get on the gas. but i DD mine to work as well and honestly when just cruising in between lights and in traffic it's still pretty tame. i mean there are times for fun i'll give it some loud pedal between lights and scare everyone around me. but thats just to pass the time in traffic :tiphat:

This has been answered quite a few times and I think it's mentioned on the F.I website.. The resonators are primarily there to reduce "drone" inside the cabin. Not for noise reduction outside the car.

i disagree. stock CBE came off in 5 min. cats took over 2 hours to get off. install of new TP and CBE took 10 min.

If you go into it having all the necessary tools, it's a breeze. It was for me, at least. The demon bolts just snapped off as soon as I started twisting them.

i was in a full garage/fab shop my buddy owns with any tool imaginable and it took 3 of us that long to get those 2 awful bolts to let go. i actually ended up slightly damaging the flange on my one of my cats because of it. damn you Nissan :shakes head:

You guys have me worried. Just got #612 after a short delay and will try install here in just a few hours. I'm worried about the cats :(

everyones seemed to have been different. most seem to have little to no problems. i may have just been unlucky. it shouldnt worry you. the only hard part is the tighter space to get in there when removing the cats.

please dont let my horror story of bad luck with my cats scare you. just sharing my experience.

24" of extensions and a universal joint for a 1/2" drive and a breaker bar (jack stand handle) and you'll be okay. Oh, and some PB Blaster.

Use a penetrating oil like Kroil or Pblaster on all 6 of the bolts and let it sit for at least an hour.

I actually let the bolts soak overnight with a coating of Kroil. I think it definitely helped as I got both demon bolts off undamaged!

I work at a Porsche dealership and one of the techs is going to help me :) Never hurts!
