It can, you really need to build a reputation with your dealer. If the service department likes you they can do a lot of things for you, including honering your warranty.

I think your best bet (minus a friendly dealer) is to keep your stock parts and put them back on when it comes time for service, etc.

pbpd4816 03-05-2010 07:26 PM
The dealership cannot void your warranty simply for the sake of having an intake installed. If something goes wrong with the car and they can PROVE that the intake caused the problem, then they can deny your claim.

Install Date Finally! :happydance::happydance:

6spd 03-05-2010 09:40 PM
Man this thing sounds down right insane, much like the skyline of old, minus the turbo whoosh. Greatest sound ever, the glory of all sounds EVER!

The only drone sound I heard is when your at the 2.5 to 3k rpm range in too high of a gear for the speed, but nothing to complain about.

I had a grin on my face all the way back to the house. Tony did a great job with the install. Made sure the fitment was perfect. Full of info, and all around great to deal with.

These guys are a hard working bunch, and I highly recommend dealing with them. If anyone is in the LA area and would like to hear how the exhaust sounds before you buy, let me know. I'd love to have an excuse to show it off!
Want to give an update. I just got back from a 4k mile road trip. The exhaust noise is very quite at highway cruising speeds. The slight droning I mentioned when I first had the exhaust installed all but disappeared after hours of highway cruising. Maybe a little if the rpms drop below 2700 in 6th gear, but it's easily solved by downshifting into 5th.

I guess the point is that those of you who might be concerned with annoying your girlfriends or other passengers on long road trips shouldn't worry.

F.I. Inc. 03-06-2010 01:40 PM
Let's do it! When you call, I will get you set up with the whole deal and when you are ready to drive up from Arizona, I will install everything for you...

Thanks, Tony

Thanks bud, I am glad the system is still running strong for you...

Liquid_G 03-06-2010 07:47 PM
whats up guys.. I was number 53 on the list.. installed a while ago but unfortunately I haven't been able to give it a test drive because of the long winter in Chicago.. finally got warm enough today to go for a spin, and all I can say is..

god damn

sounds perfect in every way..

Thanks again for an awesome product..

I love it...Thanks Tony

Only trouble I had was with the stupid top stock bolts on the cats....had to grind them off because they wouldn't budge and just stripped, not to mention very hard to reach location. Added about two more hours to my install time.

schrute 03-07-2010 02:50 AM
Those CF cans look really good.

Tony, do the CF cans have more clearance that the stainless? Looks like they do in the above pics but maybe I'm seeing things...

phelan 03-07-2010 03:10 AM
IIRC there's no difference clearance wise between the two options

Cyberium 03-07-2010 05:56 AM
Yeah that clearance looks great. I can't wait until the end of this month when mine arrive.

kevin1985912 03-07-2010 11:14 AM
Just installed the non resonated test pipes, and the 12' resonated exhaust, I was kinda scared to turn the car on, because I was afraid it was going to be insanely loud, but the sound is down right sexy. Very deep sound at the low rpm, and on top, it's a very exotic sound. Very happy with the result. Too bad my girlfriend deleted all my pictures and videos from my camera, can't post any videos at this time. Will post later. Good product Tony.

Thank Kevin!

Enjoy the exhaust and let me know if you need anything else...

Zrod 03-07-2010 09:56 PM
Ive had the CBE and HFC installed for a few days now and I gotta say I LOVE the sound they produce. Cruising around town its truly a mechanical symphony, flooring it conjures the sound of 1000 screaming demons. Videos do not do it justice lol. Props to Tony and FI!! :tup:

pictures of the new exhaust, the tips are turning a little yellowish, probably because of the test pipes. :)

kevin1985912 03-08-2010 02:11 AM
Is it normal to have this hissing sound after i let go the gas, it's kinda like a open waste gate sound, or a delayed BOV sound.

One_Quick_Z 03-08-2010 02:23 AM
I had that sound on my old 350Z when I had Test Pipes and Borla Exhaust only on deceleration at certain RPM's.

Yes it is normal with the HR motor. You hear it mostly because you have straight test pipes on the car. If the stock cats were on the car the sound would be very minimal.

The yellowish tint is mostly due to the heat. It is actually a goldish tint and this is what stainless steel does. The mufflers have so much packing material that the outer Shell will never get hot enough to change color. And obviously the tubing itself will discolor the most because it is the thinnest.

Did I read something about wiping down / cleaning the exhaust after the install to remove all finger prints (so they don't "get burned into the steel")?

F.I. Inc. 03-08-2010 07:36 PM
A DEAL, take it!
