Well, I couldn't get a hold of him and with the voicemails and emails I left him, I didn't hear from Paul, so I filed a dispute. Anyway, Paul did refund the amount back and I am currently waiting for PayPal to clear it.
I took the advice and placed the order with Kyle from Import Parts Pro and had an order confirmation emailed to me and my part shipped out (with tracking number) within the hour. Great communication skills and prompt service. I should be getting the part within a couple of days. Awesome! Thanks Kyle!

Take some before and after clips. I just installed my Fujitsubo this weekend and I love it...but you know how it goes. Modding is a problem If these sounds good enough I may have to shoot Kyle another order.

It's difficult to record and provide a decent comparison with my cheap-*** digital cam lol.
All I can say is that I love it now. It was quiet - just like my stock exhausts - but deeper.
Now, with the HFCs installed, the deep growl is magnified and sounds perfect. Not too loud that it is obnoxious, but loud enough to make people look.
At idle, it is quiet like stock, but if you punch the gas pedal, it is music to your ears!
Definitely the setup for sleepers. If I wanted to go louder but still have that nice deep tone, I would probably switch to Motordyne or Bassani.
I'm planning to swap my stock Y-pipe out for the Fujitsubo Y-pipe, but since their '07-08 (HR) Y-Pipe hasn't been proven, I will just wait it out for now.
Here is my before clip posted on youtube.

I'll try to post an 'after' one when I get a chance.
Cheers!

Yeah, I've been getting some rasp in the low rpms.
I've also gotten two Check Engine lights so far.
Ed and Pete at Precision Z are telling me that my car might be running too rich and suggests that I add spacers to the oxygen sensors to correct the problem.
Any recommendations Berk?
