They both have the same setup.

Clear as mud. ;)

Bah you guys have got me all paranoid about rasp now. Mine is already raspy with just ERZ HFC's. I've got the 12" res TDX on order and really don't want it to sound any raspier. I've mostly heard people talk about drone and volume differences for 18" vs 12". Not much talk about rasp.

Tony can you chime in here and set the record straight?

:tup:I was a phone call away from changing my 18" to 12" on many a days. But i stuck with 18" and ordered CNT res test pipes ( if they suck, so what, for the price you can't lose). I have them both in hand and am planning on installing this Sat. I'm preparing myself for battle against the "demon" bolt:tup:

What's up Steven! Let me know how it turns out. The demon bolt seems like luck of the draw. Both installs I've done went really smooth. Good luck!

YouTube - AZ Rides Blue 370Z Time Attack 2010.WMV

Can only hear it at the beginning & at the end of the video when I am passing the cam on the short straight. Not much rasp to me.

F.I. CBE, 12" res., carbon mufflers, Berk HFC's.

My Name's Jon, I'm the one in the Video with the 2 white Z's, I have the F.I. CF 18" and my good friend's car (Seeyabud86) has the F.I. CF 12" + hfcs. That video was shot on RCZ's camera, and honestly after watching it I think everyone started "freaking out". Maybe it was a combination of the camera + the hfcs, but the car does sound pretty good in person. Since it does have the hfcs, it has the hissing sound & a tiny tiny bit of rasp, but those 2 things are standard when buying hfcs. I think its just funny that some people started switching their orders after watching the video, & saying that his car was ricetastic, which is like saying everyone that ordered Tony's exhaust with HFC's has a ricetastic set-up, makes perfect sense :ugh2:

:iagree: There are plenty of ppl out there with both FI CBE + HFC. That alone says it all. I'm sure it sounds better in person. Plus, I've seen other vids of the same setup and they sound good. So, it must have been RCZ's camera....I dunno.

But man, sure is funny to see a lot of people changing there orders all of a sudden because of one vid. My advise, reference other vids before jumping ship.

This thread should be in the Guinness Book of World records for most views on a single thread ever, on any forum.

Anyone ever found a thread with more views?

Haha, good stuff! :tup: I still plan on getting my HFC's!

There is a thread on an aviation forum with over 40,000 replies and almost 3.4 MILLION views. It has been going for over 3 years and that probably isn't a record. This one has a long way to go. :tup:

Have you not scrolled down to the bottom of the index page and seen "Mose Viewed Threads/Sections"? :confused:

It's right there in black and varying shades of gray I assure you... :tup:

Whats good Nate!? Yeah man i have everything ready to go for a saturday install. I'll have access to a lift and plenty of tools... I'll let you know how it turns out and my text you in the middle of it if i run into any problems. hahaha.

Wanna thank Tony for an outstanding looking product and the care put into shipping. I received my CBE an ERZ HFCs on the same day (nice ordering timing on my part) and I have to say the superiority of Fast Intentions is immediately apparent. I plan on getting a baseline dyno tomorrow morning then hopefully do the install and return for a second dyno run later in the day (weather permitting). This will be a 2-in-1 install and dyno, not the FI CBE independently, but I will post up a review anyway. Thanks Tony!

Just order mine! Thanks Tony for great customer interaction.

Can't wait for those 6 to 8 weeks to go by fast enough.
