Any comments on the ft-86 SpeedFactory V1 catback?
Hey guys! I'm almost 100% on getting the V1 sometime soonish, but haven't seen or read many user reviews. If there happens to be anyone that owns one, please comment on: sound/pitch, db lvl, weight, gains, any drone even slightly? Been thinking about invidia's q300 too.
Anything to make me certain I'll be happy or any advice against the V1?

I was also interested in the V1 system but it wasn't on the FT86 speed factory site anymore. It looks like they only have the V2 now.

From the clips I've seen, it sounds beastly. Especially with the Invidia Catless. If shipping holds up to predictions (when does it ever?), I should be getting this installed next weekend...

I've had it for about a month now, non-resonated with stock headers. I love the sound, it's a nice deep rumble (the youtube videos don't do it justice) without being obnoxious, piss-off-the-neighbors loud. At highway speeds I can only just hear it over the road noise. I'm not entirely sure what people mean by "drone" (this is my first aftermarket exhaust) but I've been a couple multi-hour drives and it hasn't bothered me at all.
Also, FT86SpeedFactory's service is great. I was a total noob and had to ask several questions about the installation and the replies were quick and helpful. I do wish some simple instructions were included with the exhaust since I didn't realize I needed to use the stock springs for the midpipe bolts but that's a *very* minor issue. |
