It's interesting there are so many F.I. exhaust regrets. I saw this coming, but the amount of hype and interest in those stupid exhausts was unbelievable. I think the 'FI exhaust is here' thread had about 300,000 hits.

I regretted not getting clear bra initially, but then I had an accident and got it installed with my new hood and fascia. Now, no regrets at all.

Stupid exhausts? I think they sound great, are well made, and offer great performance gains.

If you can live with the drone more power to you. If not, that's why we have options.

I'd call any hype'd exhaust stupid, as it's nothing more than an exhaust .

If you look back to the original posts, the FI exhaust initially had a cult following, claiming and arguing that there is no drone, they're not too loud, and they never bottom out. As time has told, all three of those things have been issues for various owners.

I do like having options though. And if I didn't daily drive my car, maybe I'd have the FI exhaust.
