I just got off the phone w/Tony at FI (hell of a nice guy) to order my new exhaust. While I was talking to him I figured I'd ask about the CF catback I saw on g37driver, so I asked him if it was possible to do it on my X.He checked right away, and said it was possible so i decided to go ahead w/it. Tony said I'll be the first G sedan w/the CF catback and hopefully it will be shipped out in apprx. 3 weeks(gna be a long 3 weeks), so when it's installed, i'll update you guys. Thx again Tony!!

 

awesome man, thing's going to look cool, i love CF on black

 

Congrats on the new toy for your car. That must have been a pretty penny..
I'm looking at cat backs now but want something quiet as my neighborhood ahs zero noise and I don't want the noise to be me.. LOL

 

what's CF??

 

^^, carbon fiber

 

what part of the exhaust would be CF?? just the tips? :S

 

thx alot man...it's my first performance mod so i took my time in deciding.i've heard nothing but good things about FI. Did you check out the sound clips on their website? I didn't think they were too loud.

 

the mufflers are CF, tips are polished

 

Do the CF mufflers make the system any lighter?

 

I always thought the exhaust pipe should be made of metal so that it would be able to reach a certain running temperature for proper efficiency. I'm not sure about CF having the ability to heat up to that level. but that's probably only true for two stroke engines. I dont know hehe.

 

Yes. The CF mufflers will save a little more weight. When i was on the phone w/Tony this morning he did tell me exactly how much each muffler weighs but i honestly forgot

 

how is it goin to be lighter when the muffler is goin to be wrapped in CF lol
i think its for keeping heat away from the gas tank and for looks lol
unless tony is doin something different with these mufflers
how much more are they?

 

wtf, he's suppose to be doing the coupe one, Ugghhhh

 

I just talked to tony about the exhaust for mine and I asked him about the CF too. He said the CF one is for the coupe, but he can also make one for the sedan if anyone wants one.

 

^^ yep..when i asked him on the phone he wasn't sure at first so he put me on hold to check his exhaust jig and whatnot, and within 5 mins he told me it was doable
