Official "get the US spec fujitsubo exhaust into production" Thread

ok i really want an exhaust for my car, but they're all too loud for me, and i hear the fujitsubo exhaust doesn't increase the sound too much. i'm convinced this is the perfect exhaust for me.

anyway, i think if we can gather up enough interest in this thread, then maybe someone will find a way to bring it stateside for us at a reasonable price, whether it be to import the japanese spec one or to make a US spec one. lets make a list of people that would be willing to get this exhaust. its worth a shot folks! i'd be more than willing to give my car up to be an R&D car for this exhaust..

If you want an exhaust that isn't that loud and sounds good, go with the FI exhaust. It's awesome!

i'd rather go fujitsubo, actually. nothing against FI, but i've had several fuji exhausts and they were all exactly what i wanted--big bore and quiet.

that said, not in.

I have the FI on the MT with HFC and I don't think it's too loud. With no HFC it's not loud at all.

As for the exhaust you want, I was going to be the test car for it but they don't feel there is enough interest anymore to further research for US until they feel there is a high enough demand. If you can get a list of 15 people VERY interested, I'm sure I can present to my contact and have R&D started withing 60 days. PM if that ever happens.

sounds like a deal. ok people, i've read other threads on this forum where people have said they would love the fuji exhaust, so now its up to us. we need 15 guys and then we have a real chance of getting this exhaust. i'm 1 obviously, once a few more guys post in this thread and want the exhaust, i'll start a list. lets make it happen!

Definitely in. To me, the FI is a bit too loud and the Fuji is perfect. =)

i agree 100%, especially because i have HFC so the FI is definitely too loud. also, KulG35, do you know how much this fuji full exhaust might cost if we do get it into production?

not sure the cost, I do know they currently have the Y-pipe available for US on special order... just no US spec fuji exhaust.
