Wow with the hate...
I said FI makes a good quality product. (i never seen the FI in person before so this is from what i hear)
And i also said that stillen makes a good quality product, this is from what i can tell when i got mine, it seemed decent to me.
Therefore, i said FI makes a good quality product just like stillen.
At no point in time was i saying they are equal, and since i never had the two side by side, i don't have the right to judge that.
But what i did say is that both Stillen and FI makes decent quality products.
In your opinion you think FI is better made, and i can c why, but I'm sure you can't say that stillen is a POS.

To the original topic, I'm fine with a bit of drone and yes it's louder at the beginning, but it gets better after a while, or maybe you will just end up getting use to it.
Personally I'm happy with mine right now, the thing that i don't like is the way they use 3 clamps to secure sections of the exhaust, i much prefer connections that uses nuts and bolts.
Anyways when i get tired of this stillen, i will get the ARK Grip

 

yeah i got a while to buy mine anyways! just starting my research now so i know exactly what i want! i think i'll take ur advise and try to meet with someone that has it! who knows maybe a new exhaust will come out and i wont want neither! thanks for all the help and quick responses!

 

not sure what's the exact price, but i think these are worth a look

gotcha, i looooove exhaust sounds, when im in my brothers tacoma with intake headers exhaust and no cats i shut off the music and just drive, theres drone but i dont mind it at all! i like it loud! just dont want it to the point where i cant talk to the person sitting 2 feet from my mouth!

 

the stillen is no where near that level, as i c it, if you have the Bose sound system, 1/5 sound level is about the same volume as the drone from the exhaust. i constantly talk to people sitting beside me and the exhaust is no issue at all.

 

great then its not so bad at all....what u think about that ark u showed me? better worse? why? why not?

 

i think ARK is better than any other out there. mainly because of the design of the pipes the Y and X all in one piece. also the twin canister at the back is a good design.
Secondly it's ARK's customer services, check out this thread on myg37, i was so impressed after seeing this. http://myg37.com/forums/intake-and-e...t-updated.html
here is a few videos

 

Im looking at the stillen as well. Im looking to just turn up the volume on my exhaust just a little but but dont want to lose the sound when at WOT, and after hearing the FI i'll have another one to look at. I was also thinking about dynamat in the truck to eliminate some drone that might occur. Do you think this would help sound proof the car?

 

I have FI on my car and love the sound and they way it looks. It's not too loud, not too soft. I also have the injen CAI that add a little bit on top of that. It sounds really nice.

would this be california legal? i see it replaces the oem cats

 

^ No it doesn't replace the cat, it's still a catback exhaust

 

thats a great question, i will find out eventually cause im going to have my trunk dynomatted for my subs, and eventually i will get my exhaust!

 

oh ok, i thought i was looking at the cats in one of the pics

 

Search kulg35 in YouTube, I have drive bys (I have a 6MT with HFC) with FI system... EXTREMELY HAPPY... Tony and the guys are great and very good customer service after install!!!

 

Why so much smoke coming out, or just cold weather?
