There's those big V8's that are loud but are not considered loud. My car is loud and I don't think it sounds like rice.

I wonder if greddy will finally release its spectrum elite exhaust by then. knowing them, probably not lol

The Greddy

really?? is the difference explainable?
I am sure that the Greddy is louder, and along with its appearance, and from my own personal experience of hearing the Greddy on an Altima coupe, it is slightly ricey. And it drones terribly.

GReddy is louder without the silencer no doubt. With the GReddy silencer, it is almost comparable to FI, but the FI is just a tad quieter. The sound has a similar note, but the GReddy is deeper. I have had Tanabe, GReddy, and Fast Intentions exhaust and I would say they all drone in the low RPM's. Tanabe being the least and GReddy being the most. I believe the cause of this droning is the stock y-pipe.

Since we're all talkin about GREDDY.

lots of peps are getting the new y-pipe, so we'll know for sure in a few. if thats the cause of droning then that would be a simple fix

yeah the droning is rediculous. on the free way i sometimes downshift to 5th just to get rid of it. low rpms are the worst

Remember Loop has a resonator, which makes a big difference in the sound of an exhaust.

Loop - I was just wondering, is there any particular reason that you think the droning might be caused by the factory Y-pipe?

Did we ever get any more information about the payment plan? How much horsepower can we expect to gain from this? Same as other exhausts? I'm still very interested just need more info... I'd love to hear a sound clip of it on an altima to make sure it's not too ricey for me... Loop is the one that has it on his car right? Are there any sound clips?

HP/TQ numbers are not available. Correct, that is my car. No sound clips at the moment.

Is this a 2.5" pipe? Did ya'll have any clearance issues with the area near the heatshield below the gas tank? My stock 3.5 exhaust is crimped down a bit-- I'm guessing due to heat near the gas tanks...

What's up bro. As Loop stated, Fast Intentions want 1/4 up front, and then the rest is at your leisure. If you are serious, I'm sure that you and the owner of Fast Intentions could work something out. There are no actual dyno numbers, because Loop has the CVT. Although this is not factual, I am almost positive that this exhaust puts down the best power gains out of all the exhaust available now. The precision craftmanship and design that Fast Intentions is known for leads me to believe that. If you read my first post, you can listen to the different exhaust clips that I have for their application on other cars. Although they are not an Altima, Tony has informed me that the exhaust sounds just like their exhaust for the 350z. In my original post, I have a link to those sound clips.

What's up bro, yes the exhaust is 2.5 inch piping. Absolutely no problems at all, the exhaust system is perfect. Let me know if you want to get on the list, we are almost there. Believe me this is the best exhaust on the market.
