FedEx has it for sure. Injen was backordered, so I have no complaints about Intense for the long wait. My reason for saying it wasn't such a good experience is because if it wasn't for me calling once a week, I would have been completely left in the dark. No tracking number, and no email notification of when it was shipped or even to tell me it was backordered at Injen in the first place. Luckily, I knew Intense was reputable, so I wasn't worried. What I can say though is I will definitely still order from Intense in the future.

Got it this morning, here's the pics







Also, just a quick question. What would be the best way to bring it to the shop to have it installed? I'm going to go to Vinny Ten Racing and I was just wondering what would be the most convenient way for them to get the exhaust? I was thinking have all the separate pieces in their own wrapping (plastic bags/bubble wrap for the mufflers) and bringing them without the box. Any suggestions?

I fitted a Nismo cat-back and Berk HFC in my car.

Take the parts out of the box. Keep the plastic/bubble wrap on them. The shop that installed my exhaust was nice enought to wrap up my OEM cats and OEM exhaust and put them in my car.

I thought VTR was closing up shop?

Throw away the box, and just put the pieces in your car.

It's my first breathing mod. I have Hotchkis sways though too. Berk HFCs are next. I'm keeping the stock intake and going with K&N drop ins unless the Injen CAI returns some impressive independant dynos (I'm not getting my hopes up).

It will be pretty hard to make a lot of gains n/a(though the HR does better than DE) but regardless you would be pretty happy with the sound of yoru engine after the injen cai forthe 07...and looks nice on engine bay too



the jwt one is pretty nice too

I can understand that. There are a few shops that don't really communicate back orders or delayed orders to their customers... so you just wait and hope it will arrive some day. While I've always received my product in the end, I, like you, enjoy knowing whats going on and appreciate honesty over optimism. (Just tell me it's going to be late instead of: "its going to ship out tonight!" when they don't actually have it and get my hopes up)

Glad you got your exhaust though. It looks sick man!
