Fast Intentions exhaust is here! (continued)

Is it really worth getting this exhaust? After all, it's a V6 which will never sound that good anyway. I don't get it :-) I guess if you're looking for

It's unfortunate they don't give more attention to the stock exhaust. Instead the consumer has to spend ~$1,500 to get a slight improvement in performance and sound. But it seems all automotive companies do this. :-( The new 6 cylinder BMW "M" series cars sound awful.

You can thank strict U.S. Emissions for all of that....

That part is definitely not slight.

The numbers speak for themselves....This is the most popular and high demanded exhaust in the 370Z market....I say this and I'm not an F.I. Exhaust owner....I for one went with a different brand out of experience and preference....Best believe that if the exhaust I have wasn't available I would have definitely went with this exhaust.

your still in the 5.0 mindset brother, I miss throwing on my gt500 axle backs and off road X and going from good sounding mustang to AMAZING sounding mustang. And went i went kooks full exhaust...forget about it. The Z sounds pretty damn good with this exhaust though man...not to mention the gains...its totally worth it

#1320 here. Just placed my order this morning. While their products may cost top dollar I too will appreciate that what goes into their products is not just metal. On top of that your product is made in the USA and your money is helping feed another American Family and as long as I can afford it I will. I consider it an investment in many ways. Thank you Tony and Kevin for helping me! Glad to be on the list!

Yeah. The "Z" will never make that wonderful music, so I'm having a hard time pulling the trigger on any exhaust upgrades.

I am the red headed step child of a local mustang group based on a few friends of mine and honestly the Z with the FI exhaust sounds better. Now the new vette that v8 even with the stock dual mode exhaust is sexy and much more appealing than the mustang to me.
