Fast Intentions exhaust is here!

Hey guys, check out my video of my newly installed FI cat back with 18" res. Me and my buddy used our recording equipment to try and capture the true sound of this amazing exhaust.

Thanks Tony and staff for the quality of your product. I got my CBE and HFCs installed this past saturday. Another satisfied customer.

Nice sound recording there. Was that with stock cats + manifolds? It sounds a little different than HFCs/Headers, but it's still the best approximation of the real-world sound of the FI exhaust I've seen on youtube by far

Yep, everything is stock other than the CBE. And thanks! Good to know that four hours of my life wasn't wasted for nothing haha

Hey guys... have you all by chance gotten a 370 on a dyno (or anyone else) with the exhaust and some good drop-ins with the tubes?

With K&N Drop Ins, Cobb post maf tubes, F.I. LTH's and CBE I netted 30hp over baseline. No Tune yet.

what's LTH?

Methodical4u · 06-09-2011, 06:18 PM

oh long tube headers I guess? 30 hp doesn't seem like that much... was it on a mustang or dynojet?

Glokwork · 06-09-2011, 07:34 PM

Yup Headers... Mustang Dyno. Dyno's weren't in 5th gear 1:1 ratio, but that just means I came out even better.

oh ok... well on the mustang that makes a lot more sense... I was going to say that all of those mods seemed like they would gain more power.

How much do you expect to gain from the tune? I didn't think the Z's made to much more power with a tune?

I wonder what kind of power I would gain with that set-up minus the headers. I'm not looking to spend a whole load of money... just a decent exhaust the the panel filters and the cobb tubes. Would it perhaps get me into the high 12's?

XwChriswX · 06-10-2011, 01:37 AM

I think the most common numbers we've seen from people is in the +15-20hp from a tune. But the biggest key is how it smooths the powerband out to where power comes sooner because you're not limited by the 0-60 limiter. And the map is adjusted for your mods so your engine can run better.

As for with those, high 12's should def be possible I would think...

ValidusVentus · 06-10-2011, 01:56 AM

Seems to me those are pretty respectable gains seeing as how it hasn't been tuned yet.

Darn near 10% gain in HP.

I myself am seriously considering getting the FI CBE/HFC combo with 18" res, even the youtube recorded sound at WOT make me all

inside. My only concern is about highway drone. Any of you guys that have this or a similar setup installed have an opinion? If this has been addressed previously in this thread, the thousands of replies have intimidated me beyond attempting to find it lol.

Nice job there Captain
