Fast Intentions exhaust is here!

I can assure you it won't be a problem! Unless you're trying to qualify for the Daytona 500, don't worry about it!

Tony, could you PM me with some details? I am interested in the CBE probably with 18" resonators as I am not looking for a terribly loud sound. Shipment would be to NY 11746. Thanks, I look forward to hearing from you!

Tony, (Or anyone with FI's exhaust for that matter) can you say these are good over speedbumps? My apt complex has them now and I'm wondering what the clearance is for them?

@ Stock ride height, and if you've lowered them as well would be good info. I'm looking to drop maybe 1" at best.

Speed bumps are not an issue even with a lowered car! I know this because I have tested it myself with different cars.

I totally Agree, thats the first thing I ran into with no problem, and of course you're going to sneak up on them thats just common sense...

Chris,

I installed my FI at stock height then lowered the car with eibachs shortly after. At stock height I scraped going in and out of my driveway until I learned to take it at an angle. Speedbumps were not a problem as long as I took them slow.

After lowering I was a little worried about scraping again, but as long as I take dips at an angle and speedbumps slow (even slower now that I'm lower) I don't scrape. Hope this helps!

Very helpful TY. I will take them slow too, I do in my tC now just because they are like /\ as opposed to low and flat. So it really bounces you if you go anything over 10mph.

Don't have too many big dips... just in this area alot of shitty roads due to them being paved in the 60's so lots of rocks/potholes FTL.

Hey Shawnal what kind did you go with? I am getting the 18" resonated with C/F mufflers with test pipes non resonated. I have a while to wait still though. Do you have any videos of yours?
