Thread: Fast Intentions TDX Catback Exhaust Install Review with PICS!!
Started 1 month, 2 weeks ago by G35guy84
Without further hesitation, here is my review of the infamous F.I. TDX catback exhaust system:
So, I have been wanting to change out the stock exhaust since I bought the car back in June. I finally got around to doing so during the late summer, but I didn't know what options to choose (i.e., 12" resonators / 18" resonators / no resonators, HFC?, CF option), so I emailed Tony and ...
50 hp...holy sh*t! wtf?!
i think i need to get mine out to the dyno again...intakes + hfcs + exhaust = 50 hp???
my god, my brain is failing to comprehend this....
The only thing holding me back right now is the clearance. My front spoiler drags pretty good comin up the driveway. Anybody have a clue of the max angle of entry before contact.
O.K. here is my thoughts. Now, this specific car has:
Stillen Gen III intakes
Fast Intentions High Flow Cats

Now, I am the manufacture of the exhaust and I can tell you there is no way this car picked up 50 RWH (Rear Wheel ...
ah, that makes sense about the gear ratio. I knew something seemed a little out of place. Can't wait to hear this exhaust in person! Once I do I know I'll HAVE to buy it
I think 50 is on the high side too but I wouldn't doubt the true number is closer to that than 28. I think there's alot of variables with this car on the dyno. The oil temp. issue makes it hard to get repeatable numbers, some people's cars seem to take longer to learn the mods than others (ecu reset vs. learn), and the intakes are problematic to measure results since dynos won't be ...

The clearance shouldn't be an issue. I haven't had a single problem with it.
