Not too many people have bought the Greddy kit from what I've seen... There's a current magazine article about it, but that's the most press I think they've gotten.

Now that I think about it.

would the FI CBE be able to handle TT.

I know that the LTH will have to go but what about the CBE.

The Greddy and GTM kits will be happy with a 2.5" exhaust in the 450 whp range with a little room to grow.

Yep, it is only when you start breaking the 500HP range will you want a full 3.0" exhaust probably.

Awesome. FI exhaust sound + turbo whistling = sex.

It can, JB's TT build was shooting a few flames on one of the first tunes.
It has a more refined tune now so it does not do it, but he still has the original tune if we ever want to try it again.

OK I placed my order for the FI 18" CBE with Specialty Z since I bought my 300ZX Labree exhaust from them a few years ago. Can't wait!

We appreciate the business. I received the order from Greg@SpecialtyZ today. You are #208

On another note, your LaBree system for the 300ZX TT was indeed a Fast Intentions exhaust if you bought it through SpecialtyZ within the last 5 years. When we split in 2005 from LaBree and started our own business SpecialtyZ came with us. Prior to that I was building all of the SpecialtyZ products since 1999 while I helped create LaBree!

Again, thanks for the business...

Tony

Yep I got it in 2007. I love that exhaust! I still have my 300ZX TT. I even have test pipes on it and it sounds nice and deep!

Installed my exhaust last night. The exhaust was truly a great fit and very well put together, so it was a real easy install.

After unpacking the last bit, I did find a small dent in one of the tips, but it's at the underside and you really can't see it, so no biggy.

I shimmed one side as it was hanging just a bit too high. For anybody looking for some washers, I used some 5/16 washers, which were a perfect fit.

Now for the best part, after driving it for a while, the car feels faster through the entire RPM range.
I'm not sure how much is due to the increased power and how much is due to the feeling generated by the awesome sound, but I'm really happy with the end result.

To me this is the way a 370Z should sound. I'm driving with my radio off and my windows open. The car does seem to attract even more attention with the added sound, which is fine with me, the car has the HP to back it up.

Thanks Tony for a great product!

Uck I don't understand why my install was so damn difficult I hope that my installer gets the pictures soon.

Xan, did you lift all 4 wheels for the install? I'm hoping to use ramps for the rear and maybe some 2X10' boards under front wheels for a little extra room when I do mine. Or maybe you're lucky enough to have access to a lift.
