I didn't weigh it before installing. Mine listed a shipping weight of 77 lbs, box and packaging weigh about 20 lbs maybe (I don't own a scale). So my guess would be around 55 lbs or so, but don't quote me on that.

I can't wait until i recieve mine and hear it with the GTM RTPs.

11 days left and counting!

EDIT: now i get why you painted em black. SS looks much better IMO.

It was a tough decision to paint them. The polished finish looked so good, but I prefer the black on the car. To each his own though, if you prefer the polished stainless, let that nice finish show.

Here are mine, FWIW, more on Driver so as not to thread-jack.
Thanks mike. Your thread over there is what finally made up my mind on the invidia.

Looks great!

Funny, mine was also off on the left (even the OEM one was). I guess it's an Infiniti trait.

Ya, I noticed the OEM wasn't quite right either. Quick question, how many miles did it take before the smell from the production oils and stuff went away on yours?

Mike,

I actually stalked you last night on driver lol. painting the cans was an ingenious idea...your car looks PHENOMENAL. classy, with a hint of "bite your head off" aggressiveness. perfection

Most of the stuff burned out on the dyno, you can actually see the smoke screen in the vid i posted There was still a slight smell after a couple of days, but haven't noticed it recently. I'd say about 350 miles of highway driving. It has also mellowed out quite a bit since.

Shucks. Thanks, man. I appreciate the kind comments.

Nice pics of Invidia SS rolled tips for a sedan. I was looking for those for a while. Cars look awesome and Invidia tips are definitely sleeper. Keep the cops out

Nice Exhaust. A little too quiet for me but sounds awesome. I got the stillen exhaust and it basically wakes up the neighborhood lol. I am digging the roll tips compared to the stillen straight cut.

Really? I always thought the stillen was quiet... do you have any clips?

OP - Exhaust looks and sounds awesome! I can't wait to install mine..

I have HFCs along with the Stillen CB Exhaust, so it's definitely louder than the Stillen clips. Now the stillen exhaust is no where near as loud as the Fast Intentions I had.

I think I will put up a mod thread of my car this week with clips...

Thanks. It's not loud at all, which is perfectly fine by me. I figured this way I could add HFC later if I want and it still won't be overbearingly loud.

Have this on my coupe and I absolutely love it. If it's anything like the coupe, yours will quiet down a bit (not much) when it breaks in. However, it will get deeper. I heard it with HFC before, and I'm putting them on next Saturday. Good choice for exhaust!
