Thumbs up Official FAST INTENTIONS Thread - Post Up Your Photos, Videos & Reviews!!

This thread was designed to assist all Fast Intentions enthusiasts
to help provide better information on which set-up suits them best!
Everyone has different opinions/requests for their exhaust, which we provide many different options
resulting in different tones, sounds, HP & TQ to meet any/all of those needs.

I try my best to give my insight based off my actual experience on the best exhaust setups for customers
according to what they tell me they want, but I'd love to have posts and reviews by other owners
of different setups to truly get a well rounded review/opinion on different setups.

Please post photos of your Fast Intentions setups including the following info:
*specific year/make of your G
*Full Exhaust Specs
-Canister Type (SS or CF)
-Resonator size (none, 12" or 18")
-Xpipe type (Upgraded or regular)
-Cats Modded? (LTH's, HFCs, RHFCs, TP's, RTP's, or if you're running OEM cats.)


Below I have 7 individual reviews that have been previously posted by members.

I'm still curious if anyone has test fitted the F.I. long tubes on the sedan. Considering them. Also looking to get the F.I. CBE for my sedan.

I believe the TT kit would be the best setup for my G37X.








seriously.

That's a nice collection of reviews. I'm sure they'll be very helpful to anyone considering an F.I. exhaust. I think I read through most (if not all) of them before placing my order.

I recently installed FI RHFC and the traditional CBE. I wasn't going for looks but wanted performance. After talking with Tony, I chose the above system and I definitely am not disappointed. The workmanship was top notch and the sound is awesome. The system was packaged as if it was fragile. FI was taking no chance of having the system damaged in shipping. I didn't care about having a loud system but wanted the performance. From 30 feet away you can just hear it. Up close you hear the deep tone. When cruising you hear the nonstock exhaust, a nice throaty sound but not loud. But when you put your foot into it the sound comes alive. Others that have heard it definitely like the it. There is no drone or rasp. I highly recommend the FI exhaust.

I went with the 18". As I stated, I and others are very pleased with the sound. My 39 year old son says it sounds great.

I also went with 18" resonators. You're right, that deep bass tone is simply amazing. Puts a huge smile on my face every time I start the car.

Wow very nice job, Lance!
I wish there was something this in-depth for the Tanabe exhaust setups... Sure would love to check out an axleback/catback direct comparison for them

To bad is to late or else I would be driving the the road to really open her up... Can't wait till tomorrow after work... Thanks Lance

Just a quick vid I made to show Fast Intentions Rhfc's with Oem catback (and Stillen gen3 intake). Just a quick take-off and slow driveby. Sounds awesome, especially in person. Definitely can feel it throughout the power band as well. Thought I would immediately need a cbe but this is a great improvement by itself for sure! Thanks Lance and everyone at FI as well.
