Tony did the installation on my Nismo today and the sound is EXACTLY what I was looking for. I had a huge grin on my face for the hour and a half drive home. Thanks for a perfect install Tony (it looks as good as it sounds) and it was a pleasure getting to meet you. I'm sure we'll do more business in the future.

Dave,

It was a pleasure meeting with you today. The exhaust fits your car very well. Here are a few pictures of the outcome so everyone else can enjoy.

I am still waiting back for a shipping quote for you from the freight company. They said I should have it tonight or Monday. With that being said, I should have it in the mail Monday or Tuesday of next week. As soon as I know the shipping total I will email it to you and you can PayPal me the money.

Thank you for you patience...

I just picked up my exhaust!!!:happydance:
I didn't open it yet. I hope that stupid ups guys not make any scratches on my lovely baby!!!:driving:

Rnmovr12 01-09-2010 04:00 PM

My girlfriend and I have been looking into this system and we love it however the price is insane (in our opinion) and were wondering if you guys will ever be selling each component by themselves such as just the highflow cats, just the resonators and just the mufflers?

I have a welder and a pipe bender

thanks for any help :tiphat:

DirtyDave 01-09-2010 06:33 PM

Cats aren't touched in a Catback system. I think this system is very competitively priced. Worth every dime in my opinion.

Rnmovr12 01-09-2010 07:22 PM

assuming we went with FI we would do the HFCs and resonators too.

also didnt mean for it to sound like just FI is priced high, these systems for the Zs in general are insanely priced and id guess its because of all the stainless steel tubing among other parts. you should be able to build a really nice system for the Z for ~700 bucks max.

The only way you could build the system for (Anywhere close to $700) is to have all of the equipment to do it yourself or get it made overseas. Now, even if you had the equipment you still have to have the skill set. I understand where you are coming from regarding the price but our system is priced very well. Every car is different and I have been working on theses cars since they were 300ZX's and I have never seen a true dual system (worth anything) priced anywhere around $700!

Now, our system starts at $1,100 and goes up from there. So you have options and do not have to purchase the most expensive one.

As far as selling the components, I am sorry but we do not. It is a packaged system. I will also ask that you keep other things in mind as well. You are paying for our customer service and our quality. It is all part of the package and peace of mind. I hope that you understand where I am coming from and if you have any further questions or would like to place an order, please do not hesitate to ask...

Thank you, Tony

of course he liked it, you should see the huge POS stock mufflers the Camaro comes with lol My buddy just replaced his whole exhaust system on his because the stock setup is SO bulky and restrictive!

Good. Finally shipped can't wait :excited:

Tony pm/email me tracking no if you have, so that I could monitor all the progress

Check this thread out, he just added videos on the first post.

NewYorkJon34 01-17-2010 09:43 AM

Tony, is there a way to adjust the muffler tips to just lower them a tiny tiny bit? The problem is the tips sit soo close to the bumper and I want to buy the Evo-R diffuser but am afraid it will be pressed against the tips since there is no much room. And also, my friend has the 12" exhaust w/HFCs & his tips come out just a tiny bit more the my 18" exhaust tips do, is that normal? Thanks

Just add washers under the brackets that the mufflers attach to (with the rubber gromets). This is talked about in the instructions as an adjustment (if needed).

NewYorkJon34 01-17-2010 02:47 PM

Mine never came with instructions, are they online?

bumblez 01-17-2010 02:50 PM

Mine was not come with instruction also. But Tony just sent it to email.

speedworks 01-17-2010 03:35 PM

It's real easy. On each side of the car there are small black brackets that are installed under the car near the rear - they have the bars that connect each side of the mufflers to the car, by way of the rubber connectors. All you do is take each of these brackets off (I think each one has 3 bolts), and put washers under the bracket, which essentially lowers the bracket, lowers what the muffler connects to, and end state, lowers the muffler (with tips). Might seem confusing, but when you look under the car, it will be obvious - let me know if you have questions.

darkROAM_1 01-17-2010 06:55 PM

Double check on the instructions man. They will be in a bag w/ your receipts, gaskets, and hardware for the install. Also, that will all be bubble wrapped together!

My cat-back went on today. Didn't do the HFCs just yet b/c I am waiting. Just that nice progression feeling I guess. That an next time I do anything, I'm getting help from someone w/ a shop or a garage at least. LOL (in the street install!)

Install was quick and easy, took a couple hours and probably would have only been about one if I had a better place to do it but all good. I found that removing the hangers w/ the stock exhaust made things much easier. Also, WAY easier hanging the FI exhaust in place, if that helps anyone doing this at home on the ground. ^_^

Sounds good, real good. A little bit of loudness to it the way I like it. I went no resonators/CF mufflers. Probably the best fit of an exhaust I've had in a long time. My tips had a couple small blemishes but you have to actually get your eyeballs up to it to see em. Mainly was inspecting for UPS shipping damage LOL.

All around, great build quality, kept to his word on estimated shipping time, and super easy to install.

I am glad that you like it. Enjoy and let me know if you need anything...

NewYorkJon34 01-17-2010 09:33 PM

Tony can you PM me how to lower the muffler tips just alil bit? Which spacers to get & how to align everything. I think the tips need to come out a tiny bit more & be lowered about 1/8 of an inch. Thanks

NewYorkJon34 01-18-2010 09:20 AM

Does anybody know what size washers I need? I'm going to pick some up at the store & wanna make sure I get the right ones. Oh and how many, Im guessing 6 since there is 3 bolts per pipe. Thanks for any replys

darkROAM_1 01-18-2010 09:39 AM

You mean on the hangers right? That's where the washers are going to go. Those you can actually reach w/ a ratchet, 3" extension, and a 12mm socket while the car is on the ground. You can take one off and take it into a hardware store and get the exact size that way. The 8 possible points for them are going to all be the same.

Not sure if that helps.

NewYorkJon34 01-18-2010 10:47 AM

Not really, Im not really sure where the washers go or what size washers to get, I rather just get the washers, then have my mechanic friend install it. So if there are any pics that would be real helpful.

abakja1 01-18-2010 12:09 PM

hey guys,..
need some info as Im not sure if FI is open today due to holiday...

I was going to do my HF cat install today, but need a parts list as I had mine in storage a few months since I didnt have a free weekend in a while. I installed my catback months ago and decided to do this today...

what parts should come in the box or that I need to install the HF Cats as I definitely dont have new Triangle shaped gaskets like another vendor have in their kits. Seems like you would need them if the HF cats have larger piping (?), b so that the oem gaskets be smaller than the FI HF diameter hole? Also, would you need 3 new nuts and bolts or is there a stud remaining on the header as that is what it looks like in the YouTube vid for Berks,... Lastly, how difficult is it to get the nut and bolt on to tighten that you need to access thru the hood and long extensions, or is this where the stud remains?

Sorry for long post, but just being prepared to make install easier for me..

Someone should start a DIY thread for FI and I will try to make a video,...the Berks one is helpful, but doesnt apply to the FI since there are no detailed instructions...

WHat is your email address? I will send you the instructions today. And yes we are open. The instructions will explain everything. You should of gotten them with either the exhaust or via email from me when I sent the exhaust. I will take care of it...

Thanks, Tony

abakja1 01-18-2010 01:54 PM

Thanks for the clarification Tony on the phone..
All straight now and going to install a little later today...

NewYorkJon34 01-18-2010 02:06 PM

I need the instructions as well Tony, I need to know what size washers to get, and where on the hangers to put them. My muffler tips are just too close to my bumper, and they need to come out & down just a tiny bit. Thanks, NewYorkJon34@yahoo.com (e-mail)

abakja1 01-18-2010 05:56 PM

install update,..

OEM exhaust going back on,...driver side bolt from engine bay stripped its head and I cant get it off either,....This is with a lot of PB blast prior I did yesterday to soak it and again today to soak when I was working on passenger side...

I already have the passenger side HF cats installed, but dont know if its safe with HF Cat on one side and oem stock on the driver side to get to the muffler shop...What a nightmare and damn you Nissan Gorilla with the torque gun!!

darkROAM_1 01-18-2010 07:14 PM

Well you could always still use the CBE w/ stock cats on there. That's how mine is right now.

nixxer 01-18-2010 07:50 PM

Update:

Got my exhaust today Tony :happydance: It came in great condition and I love how much bubble wrap you used. It will occupy me for hours. Tomorrow it will be installed, and if my tuner pal has time, a baseline + after dyno too.

BTW... any updates on the headers?:tiphat: You da man Tony!

G37Sam 01-18-2010 08:06 PM

Tony you got PM
