stillen or fast intentions exhaust?

brutusvk · 11-22-2014, 12:18 PM

I liked the stillen because it was a tad quieter and understated looking. If I were younger and this wasn't my DD I would have gone FI.

I have a Stillen cat back for my 09 Altima. I love how it sounds, and considered the Stillen cat back for the Z, but wasn't a huge fan of how they kept the stock style Y pipe instead of keeping it as two pipes (which I believe the NISMO Z's already have) and I personally don't care for the tips they put on it.. looks too 350Z-esque to me

. I have heard the Stillen cat back on a 370Z though and it does sound nice.

I've got a Fast Intentions exhaust on order

Go with 18" resonators and you won't have any issues. Especially on the stock cats

i have the stillen on my Z and i don't regret getting it, but i also wasn't looking for a loud exhaust.

We have installed a bunch of both and have never had a customer say a bad thing about either. Both bolt up with no problems with great fitment.

If you require a more mellow and lower volume overall the Stillen may fit the bill for you.
If you are OK with a higher volume and a little more raw sound than the FI will be perfect.

I have the FI w/ 18" resonators...LOVE it!

Get nothing but compliments on how it sounds, adds decent power.
Super high quality product.
