I have heard /seen both in person and the motordyne is a good exhaust, but it just sounds very flat/loud and doesn't compare to the fi one. that's why I went with fi, it has a very beautiful exhaust note that unique.

Can someone convince me with a video of thiers that the FI is turely the best? I would most likely get the non resonated one and upgrade my Hpipe to a new hpipe.

So no one is looking at the Borla? :P Any opinions on it?

I was looking at borla actually and it has an integrated h pipe. Hmmm

edub370 · 10-05-2012, 03:57 PM

^^ most sytems (save for FI) have an integrated x or h pipe. my $600 CNT has an h pipe

Nice!

forza370z · 10-06-2012, 01:23 AM

HKS, Motordyne or Fast Intention.

If you have $$, GThaus or Amuse.

There you go...

FI CBE with HFC

FI CBE with TT

Two More...

Enough? If not, I can find you more.

But be quite honest, I love the HKS Hi-Power as much as the Fast Intentions if not more. You should go to some local meets and hear them for yourself. Videos don't really judge, it only gives you a ballpark. HKS sounds truely exotic and I love the blue burnt Ti tips too...

Borla is relatively quiet and less aggressive compare to others if that is what you looking for. But I read Borla is more for American applications not really good on imports...

The Fast intention & GTHAUS (Meisterschaft) are top quality exhaust & the craftsmanship is top notch. I have heard of Amuse, but do not know much about them. I will say that GTHAUS (Meisterschaft) & Amuse will definitely cost you a pretty penny. At the end of the day it is all about two things..... How much do you want to spend & what kind of sound are you looking for?

johncy2000 · 10-06-2012, 10:37 AM

Thank you Forza and Maclean! Money is not a problem when it comes to exhaust. I want only the best for my car. I will most likely go with meisterschaft. What about the Akrapovic slip on rear muffler. Anyone tried this with a y pipe or h pipe?

johncy2000 · 10-06-2012, 10:45 AM

O GOD! The Fast Intentions sounds so nice!! It sounds very clean and exotic when it gets up in revs. I wonder if Tony at FI will sell me just the rear mufflers to bolt up to my Nismo midpipe and upgraded H pipe.

Amuse370z · 10-06-2012, 11:25 AM

For me, I need 3 things, burnt tips, loud and nice sounding.

e370 or Greddy for me.

I don't think the e370 is even that loud?

If you want to get technical, HFC's are also illegal. You cannot replace the factory cats unless they are malfunctioning.

Johncy2000, here is a better idea video of FI and paired with their cats.
