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.


I know I got railed on a bit when I first reported drone.

Though my 18" resonators were never too loud outside the car and I never had bottoming issues (stock height).

Yeah! Maybe a couple years down when enough bird poo and bug guts eat into the clear and enough swirl marks have accrued - I could get the whole car wrapped in flat black or satin white.

I regret paying for the color, because (a) I don't have a garage to park it in, so the coat is damaged, and (b) the next year they stopped charging for it.

Oh well.
