fast intentions makes some very good quality items as well.

at first i was skeptical but when i discovered their history, i quickly found out it's nothing to take lightly.

crawfords work well too.
some people seem to have fitment issues.

I just recieved my Fast Intentions 300 Cell metallics and they are awesome. Fitment was perfect, top notch quality.

As I drove off with the new cats installed, I could tell a difference immediately. Hope this helps.

test pipes are just straight pipes...but it is highly recommended to get the resonated test pipes as they will severely reduce rasp. you will also likely smell unburnt gas outside of your car when it's on with test pipes. will thro a CEL on later years (03.5+ i think). test pipes are cheaper than high flow cats.

high flow cats are just that...high lowing catalytic converters. much less restrictive than your stock cats. no rasp. no unburnt gas smells.will not throw a CEL. more expensive, though.

Does the test pipes and HFC have a difference in in power wise and sound wise? Also the HFC from fast intentions is about $600 and TP are about $350 - $400. Can anyone confirm?


THANKS EVERYONE FOR ALL YOUR HELP!!
