Fast Intentions CBE 2.5" piping w/18" resonator for AWD

Finally a long waited (3 months!) FI CBE came and i installed it past weekend.
Dealing with Tony@FI was a great experience. ordering process to receiving, there is nothing i can complain about except 3 months wait.
These are made to order cat back system & also available for AWD guys.

Enjoy the photos & vid clip.

any reason for going with the 2.5 over the standard 2.25? sounds good, a little raspy, but i would assume that was a cold start up you did.

i wanted 2.5" like the coupe guys
that was a first start up and first drive by. I put about 150 miles now and there is zero rasp other than hissing from Berk HFC.

Great setup, congrats! I would actually suggest ditching the BERK HFCs though. They're very well known for their rasp.

The catback itself though, you'll only love it more and more as it breaks in....

3 months has been cut in half with us representing FI. Any orders for catbacks has been estimated at 5-7 weeks rather then the 14-17 weeks.

Berk HFC's rasp tremendously reduced with FI CBE compared to stock exhaust. I'm sure resonated FI HFC or TP will be much better than Berk set up for me now.

I am loving the exhaust!!
