Replacing my exhaust: Greddy or Motordyne?

So OP, why not Fast Intentions?
For whatever reason, I never was a big fan of Greddy. The exhaust itself seems solid & I know their reputation is good. I do like the Greddy exhaust now but I want something a little louder. Which leaves me with either getting the TI or Evo3, but I like the Motordyne much more. Of course my opinions are based off of youtube videos. The Fast Intentions sounds really nice as well. Or I could add HFC's but that's a bit TOO loud for a daily in my opinion. Had Berk HFCs & a Borla exhaust on my 350Z, and I loved the sound when I was driving hard, but going out on a weekend and driving a noisy Z in Chicago at 2AM makes you a target.

My question. If price was no option, would you choose Motordyne or Fast Intentions? And why?

Motordyne because of the aggressive sound.

Fast Intentions. Sound,price,quality, and fitment. While the sound part is subjective. I feel the quality and fitment cannot be beat. Plus Tony has the best customer service in the business. The price is also a factor but the wait time for a custom order may deter you to buy something that is sitting on the shelf.

You can't go wrong with either of these two. So depends on which sound appeals to you more. Which one you like the the looks of more. Whether you want to wait for your exhaust to be built. How much you are willing to pay for the exhaust of your choice. Those are your factors. Grab a sheet of paper and make two columns (FI/Motordyne) and see which one gets more check marks in the categories just mentioned.
