Well... That escalated quickly.

Ya, that's what I was trying to do - make sure op doesn't get ripped off.

I'm so conflicted. I would like to say, "if you are happy with the exhaust, go forth and conquer," but I can't. This situation is wrong on a few levels. The seller shouldn't have misrepresented the product, and hopefully didn't charge you a premium because of it. You should do you research and know what you are spending money on.

If I had opened that box, I would have gone through the roof. I may not have a FI exhaust, but I damn sure know what one looks like.

I sell rock crawling and Overlanding equipment for a living, and believe me I understand. I spend a majority of my time trying to convince people to buy the right products for their cars and camping, even if I make less money off of it. I truly believe in buying once and only once as I've learned first hand what happens when you skimp out. With certain products like recovery gear and other such things, saving a little money can result in death.

Hopefully for a wannabe "FI exhaust" price. Just put a decal on it and it will be a FI exhaust.

Nothing beats FI man! Send it back and ask for your money back.. you got scammed!

As long as you enjoy it bro, that's all really matters.

No...I didn't forget bc I was the one asking fellow Z owners what they thought it...

He didn't get scammed. He knew what it was when he bought it and he was trying to pass it off as FI exhaust thinking we wouldn't notice.

Foolish Intentions?

And your point is? I said in earlier post that I got it from my BIL and loved how it sounded when he had it on his Z so it could be an exhaust system from Firestone, I could care less. Thanks for ur opinion though #sarcasm

My point is you started a thread with the intention of misleading others into thinking you purchased FI exhaust. Why? Because you either can't afford FI exhaust or are too cheap to spend the money on it. And that's fine. Either way it's none of my business.

But when you start a thread knowingly trying to pass off a cheap exhaust as something else, then it's our responsibility to expose you as a fraud so that you don't later unload your "FI" exhaust on some unsuspecting forum member later.

There is no shame in buying a product that saves you money. There is PLENTY of shame in buying the same product but trying to make others believe it's something else. You started off on the wrong foot in this forum and it's going to be a cold day in Hades before anyone believes you again.
