Fast Intentions
all their CBE systems are TDX.

add on test pipes or a HFC variation to give you more power and sound.

FI exhausts are in my opinion the best for the Z. sound, performance, and customer service you wont get anywhere else.

Z stock exhaust is like a church mouse and does not sound good lol you're friends are lying to you or aren't car guys.

first thing I did a week after buying my Z was a call to Tony at FI and ordered my exhaust.

i put a straight pipe, no res and it sounds stock. you just get more crackle and louder. you also feel the torque better. The aftermarket exhausts kinda lessen the low RPM torque feel, while the straight mid increases it a lil bit.

SMH Worst advice I've seen on this forum.. Straight Pipe= NO Muffler or Res which in case would sound loud AF and would definitely feel power loss No Res on the other hand would be nasty and raspy in which case again bad advice

My 2 cents is get a damn exhaust or Axleback

I'm debating over FI TDX Cat Back vs the Motordyne Shockwave, the armytrix looks crazy as well.

I put a straight midpipe, no res, but i have my muffler and cats... You should ask instead of assume. i didnt say im driving around without an exhaust. One of the most popular mods used to be the AAM straight pipe, no res muffler. And the forum was loving it. My set up is less aggressive than the AAM mod

I didnt say a straight exhaust. I said, straight pipe, which people usually understand as a straight pipe that replaces the res. Hence straight-pipe, no res. I never said muffler delete. If you read the following sentence after your highlight i did say straight mid.
