Fast Intentions for X COUPE HELP!!!!
So i started the install a little while ago,
taking the OEM exhaust off was easy, since my car is new, nothing has rusted, so the nuts came off fairly easy..
here is the issue...
I can't get my passenger side exhaust tip to fit... there is this black box in the way and there is no way around it unless maybe removing the whole box,
which i was not aware of doing...
I have the 2011 X Coupe, with the sport package (not that this matters)
I'm attaching the picture of the whole system before I started installing,

Just called Fast Intentions and spoke with someone since Tony was on the other line with a customer.
I can't recall the name of the guy i spoke with, but he was VERY VERY helpful and kind.
The "black box" near the passenger side exhaust tip area does need to be removed.
It's just a cover, and it needs to be removed to fit the exhaust.
They provide a heat shield that goes in place of that.
As of now I cannot confirm any of this because I'm at work.
So I will go home and try the install once again and give you guys an update.

I'm finally done with the install!
it was a piece of cake, and mistake on my part.
All I have to say is... before you do anything, read the instructions that is provided in the box, it is wrapped with all the hardware hahaha
The "black box" is actually a cover for the fuel lines, that needs to be removed from the car.
Also, there is another heat shield that needs to be removed.
After that, the install was a breeze!

I did record a sound clip of my stock exhaust, and I will soon record the FI exhaust.
Dont expect anything great, it was done on my iphone, which in my opinion isnt bad at all at recording the stock sound
