Innova with a free-flow exhaust!

Firstly I want to thank Keshav for his time and patience.

Now coming to the point, I was able to get FFE for my innova at last, wanted to do this for a long time..
Yes it sounds crazy but it is true.. installed it this week in the Psycho garage. Firstly even Keshav was really can’t digest that it was a Petrol Innova, when I was talking to him on phone he stressed upon why the hell did you buy Petrol one, I know for sure still he is not convinced that why did I buy a Petrol innova..

First day I left my vehicle in the garage and gave a call to Keshav as I was little worried about my ride, when I talked to Keshav I felt better and told me nothing to worry he will personally have a look at get it done.

Next day Keshav called me and told me that the headers have not to be done b’coz it is already done and nothing much have to be done to it and it will reduce the my cost also, remaining thing will go as per plan. So told him to go ahead , as he is a guru and he knows the best for the vehicle.

Third day evening I called him he was busy talking to somebody, tried 2 or 3 times with number coming busy, he called me around 9:30 in night, told me that the vehicle is ready. He also told that he had to fit additional one more pipe, i.e. now my innova has 3 pipes instead of 2 as it was sounding very loud with 2 pipes (that is understandable with 2liter engine) .
Took a test drive around the garage, the experience was awesome mind-blowing, everything seems to be right with the vehicle now.. initial and the humming sound was great. Then left the garage to my office, on the way I wondered it is really my vehicle, amazing performance. All credits goes to Psycho and Team-bhp for their advice and knowledge about the Automobiles.

Will update with the Top speed and FE in couple of days..
