axle backs dont do anything but look nice, not that you would gain a lot from a catback but might as well get a catback if its HKS or Tanabe

You know Fly i get tired of typing the same damn thing everytime a post comes up about Tanabe so oh well here it goes. The tanabe is the best exhaust dyno proven to give the car the best gain in Hp and torque. ITs a deep throaty tone, it has the most straight through design and the system is FULL stainless steel whihc means it will outlast the other systems out there. And if you want a pick of it installed i have one in my members rides

I finally heard the Tanabe and that thing sounds sweet. I was going to get the Greddy Evo but after hearing the Tanabe there's no way I'm getting the Greddy. Anyone know a good place to get the Tanabe?

it will fit the four door with a small modification in the piping. As far as the price i have seen it under 500.00 plus shipping. Its about the same price a little more but its the best out there if you want the best you expect to pay a little more.

R U serious? both exhaust wont give you much gain unless u have turbo or something... it really doesnt matter what exhaust u get.. they're just for noise n looks... HKS is much quieter and Tanabe is realll deeeppp..

I love the tanabe.. my friends has it for the 2k civic.. too bad it doesnt fit the LX coupe.. DOES IT!!?

They make tanabe for both LX and EX.

Many places run out of tanabe exhaust, you should try to give Rob a call to see if he has it in stock. Tell him you are 2k1civic member and recieve 5% off.

big deal you wont even get that much power anyways... im just guessin but youll probably get like an extra HP big deal. HKS decided to go with an axle back because they didnt see much of a difference with a cat back..
