Every flex piece on every aftermarket exhaust I've ever used has crapped out and leaked badly within a few years. No point in using T304 SS if you have a flex section that is going to leak in no time flat.

I'm in ....order placed
sounds good to me too.

I just got an email from Tony, he said my exhaust should be here by the 10th at the most can't wait!

Good to see you're joining the FI family Ian

Life's too short, not to have some fun along the way.
I ended up ordering the standard system/tips.
Tony is a great guy to talk to.... he sure knows his stuff.

....can't wait

Yeah I went for the smaller round mufflers for a slightly deeper and louder tone and I got different style tips since I'm not a big fan of the original ones.

Congrats on your order, I'm sure you'll love the standard system too.

He's definitely a great guy, he told me in the beginning that my tips may delay the exhaust being shipped out and I told him to take his time. Even though my choice in tips delayed the exhaust, he has apologized for the delay numerous times which I really don't think he was obligated to do in this situation.

It's nice to see good customer service nowadays.

Thanks for your help Scott
Now there's going to be someone older than you with an FI exhaust.

.... now I just have to wait until the end of the month.

All smiles for the FI exhaust and HFCs. Holy $hit does it sound amazing! The drone is not as bad as I thought. Down shifting from 4th to 3rd sounds awesome!!!!

I've heard of being late for your own funeral, but not early!

Lol those are the same tips I got...good choice.
Guess my persistence gave Tony the chance to offer new tips for the exhaust
God I remember how long it took till he found them and finally got them to the shop to weld them up. Went through so many different tips before he found these and sent pics. I think he hated me by the time he shipped out the exhaust.

Congrats Ian, looks great and I'm sure it sounds even better

Here's a pic of my exhaust. Haven't gotten any installed pics yet. Car's too dirty and I'm too lazy lol.
