Question on exhaust

Huck

Hey Joe! I'll take a stab at answering this for you, I recently just did Fast Intentions headers and exhaust for my car, did it all myself.

1) if you want the most hp possible, do headers. If you want some hp and a sweet sound, do just the catback. IMO, the headers will make it too loud for a good number of people.

2) Fast Intentions. Tony has the highest level of quality I've ever seen, and he pays attention to the details. Every weld is perfect. It produces the best numbers and (IMO) the best sound. It looks beautiful. You literally cannot go wrong with FI.

3) each exhaust is slightly different, but on average I would put the install at 1.5. If you can take out 10 bolts and wrap heat material around a line with a zip tie, you can do this install.

4) Tony is the best for this. I have called him probably 30 times with questions, and he has answered every single one of them and has done a great job of helping me out. His customer service CANNOT BE BEAT.

5) I personally am not rich, but when it comes to my car (and my guitars/amps) I live by the rule "you get what you pay for". FI is the best IMO, so I saved up and bought that. If you want budget, I think you can get a Topspeed exhaust for about $500-$600, and it sounds pretty good. Sometimes Stillen will have a sale where you buy the exhaust and get the GenIII intakes for free.

Lastly, you might want to look into that aluminum cover that replaces the plastic one under your engine. I think Z1 sells it (?), they're about $200. It keeps your car cooler, and has a little oil filter door so that you don't have to take it off for an oil change. Also, Swift springs give you a nice drop with a comfortable ride and can be had for about $350 shipped I think. Hope that helps!
