The Fast Intentions is a quality exhaust and no knock-off could match that unless its similarly priced.
+1 I agree with his comment!

I am not sure if it will or not because it clears the stock rear bumper sitting flush..I would think you would need some extendors.

to the OP, dont even bother trying to get a knock off. You will end up wasting your money and buying a new exhaust anyway.

dont waste your money and get the good stuff, you wont regret it in the end.


and if you dont want to spend so much on an exhaust get a custom one, it will run you about 800-900.

There is always something that I say if someone does it cheap or wrong the first time and then ends up in my shop...

"You didn't have the money to do it right the first time, but you sure had the money to do it twice!"

There is no knock off of our exhaust. And if there was, they would never strive to have customer service like us. This business is our lives and we take it very seriously. Maybe even a little to seriously sometimes. However, you all as our customers make it all worth it. That may sound Corney, but it is the truth!

99% of the shops in this world do not have a Mandrel Bender on site. We do. At the drop of a hat I can walk over to it and bend up something new and re design products as well.

Any of you that have been in our shop know how tedious and meticulous we are. Also commonly known as being ****!

So to answer your question again, there are no knock off to us. If there were, that is exactly what they would be...

a knock off= a joke and someone who steals others ideas because they do not have the skill or imagination to create it themselves. Welcome to the world. Everywhere you look something is knocked off. Unfortunately it has happened to way too may over the years.

It is our responsibility as consumers to steer ourselves away from the garbage products. Because if you don't, in the long run you will be doing it twice.

Just my 2 cents please take it lightly and as you will...

Thank you, Tony

+1 to that^

Trust me when I say I would not run another exhaust on my G but FI. If you don't have the money right now please wait till you do. You will honestly not be happy with a knock off!

You can't get a more quality product than a Fast Intention's exhaust. Buy the real thing or don't buy it at all!!

I agree with tony.. Don't buy knock offs it only promotes trash to be brought into the car scene.. And it is a waste of time and money.. Like I posted earlier I have the XO2 but had it not been for me getting played I would have waited and gotten a genuine high quality exhaust..

^well if you sell your x02 let me know i might be interested if the price is right

i understand the what you pay is what you get argument but some of us are in college or at other points in our lives where there is no way we could take on another 1k for an exhaust right now. all i want is to get an exhaust that is a bit louder and for paying like 200-300 for an x02 vs 1k++ for a fi i would have enough money to do it again later on down the road the correct way.

well if you cant afford to mod the car, dont do it. 200 bucks here, 100 bucks here, 300 bucks here for crap parts adds up. Then once they all break/cause problems, thats more money down the drain and you end up spending the same amount of money you would have spent in the first place if you just went with the quality trusted parts. lol

i totally understand if you are referring to very essential parts that can cause tons of problems. ie. not putting a pos turbocharger or spacer or rods, etc. but for something like an exhaust where i have heard very few problems with x02 specifically i honestly dont see how like 400 bucks can add on another 1k in fixes down the line.
