With the Fast Intentions you have to lose the evap box as well. Tony supplies you with a heat wrap for the hoses. Should be a non-issue.

Thats odd I just took the F.I system off the car and its still in there. Is there more than one style?

I think you can get by without removing it but in the instructions it says to remove the black shield to give it more room. The heat wrap was provided with zip ties for the lines. I removed mine just for more clearance.

Oh ok, yeah I took the shield off too. It is still hitting it though. I was actually hoping it would melt to the right spot lol

This must be very light. When i picked up the R1 from bulletproof ware house. you could literally lift up the exhaust with 1 finger. Amazing

Well I have a couple videos im uploading now, but holy cow is youtube slow. It is probably going to take 10 hours for the 5 clips to upload.

I also have bad news and a video of my issue. White smoke is pouring out of the exhaust at idle. Once I get moving you cant see it and if I floor it nothing comes out heavy. Only sitting still or not moving and popping the throttle a little.

In the video it is only coming out of the drivers side but when I stopped the video I blipped the gas and it started to come out the passenger side too. I just shut it down after that.

Oil looks good not milky or watery, coolant level is good, temps were perfect, no funny noises, good AFR's, and power was still there. Could be a head gasket, valve springs, cracked block (hope not!), etc. Just odd that everything "looks" ok.....any ideas or thoughts? I guess I will be taking it to the shop sometime this week.

I used a free video editing thing for this clip and it had a youtube button it uploaded fast. Here is the video sorry for the water mark but it was free! Lol

man that thing is throaty as hell!!! hella mean tone.... and you didnt even rev it but i got goosebumps :tup:

It is likely just the new exhaust burning what's inside the pipes during fabrication. You should be ok. Need to heat cycle the exhaust and it should go away.

That is a nice thought but I dont think im that lucky. Wouldnt it be doing it from the start when I first got it installed?

Here are a couple more videos nothing great just testing out the camera.

White smoke is normal. It's just the exhaust burning off chemicals during production process. It kind of reminds me of weird smelling marshmallows. Like burnt ones.

^what he said

Well that's a little comforting but I think I'm going to use a block seal tester before I drive it anymore.

The sound of the new exhaust did something to me !!!! Its awesome..
