How is it a bad business move? It's smart business. Know your competition...price your products accordingly to where your target customers see a better value in your product and opt to buy your product over your competitors, even if it is more.

I'm saying how I'd do it...but I'm not F.I..

Trust me, one person saying he'd pay $2000 isn't gonna make F.I., or any business, rethink their pricing strategy.

Where do you get $2000?

Owners, how's the sound on the highway. I'm a huge car audio guy and don't want a loud drone. I want it to be aggressive when I drive WOT etc, but tam(er) when just cruising.

Thanks

As someone who is 100% satisfied with mine (hell, 110%), I can emphatically say:

DON'T BUY THIS!!!

I'm a major audiophile, and if the car was my primary source of music (I think the home is more appropriate than a car for quality listening) I would be going crazy. This exhaust sounds like a dream, but you will most definitely hear it over the music unless you listen at extremely loud levels; even then, you will feel it enough that a decent audiophile should be thinking "interference at low frequency... must stop!"

Well, it is not fair to say "DON'T BUY THIS!!!" due to the fact that you bought the Carbon Fiber mufflers and the 12" resonators. There are quieter versions. Ex: Stainless Steel mufflers and 18" resonators. Now, with that being said, I am glad that you are enjoying yours. Let me know if you need anything...

Thanks, Tony

All I'm saying (and I should have made this more clear) is that if he is as picky of an audiophile as me (I'm referring to my home system, as the car is just for driving) he shouldn't order ANY aftermarket exhaust, because the whole point of being an audiophile is to not have anything at all interfere with the sound. Unless someone makes a quieter than stock exhaust (I really can't see this happening) it would be counterproductive to his stated goals.

Please, nobody take this as a slam on F.I.! I'd recommend their exhaust to EVERYONE with the exception of someone who is more of an audiohead. I'm literally in love with the sound of it.
