Ractive catback

Well I got my ractive short ram intake installed last week and i love it. It sounds great and can feel better performance. So now im getting a catback system, but dont know what to really get. I'm thinking of getting the ractive for $450 but dont know if its that good or not. I want something with nice sound but some performance gains too. I thought you guys could help because, you know way more then i do. So any ideas please let me know.

budget - $450
*good sound and performance

Here I am coming to the rescue!!!

Tanabe exhaust from the side

Tanabe exhaust from the center

Tanabe exhaust Flyby


Don't even think about getting riceactive......oooops......i mean ractive. Tanabe is the all-time best top of the line exhaust system to get.

I dunno i just got my ractive cat and i love IT!!!! its a hella lot cheaper then Greddy and DC but then again you pay for what you get so i dunno if you want to save a couple bucks then go with the ractive like i did and have money for a short shifter and CAI but if you want a expensive sound and a bit of gain then go with the other guys!
thats my BLINg bling or 2 cents
haha

You could also think about getting an AROSPEED CAT BACK EXHAUST SYSTEM @ www.speedandstyle.com. I got one and its a nice set up. They are doing a review if super street pretty soon on the arospeed cat. It ranges from $350-400.

The tanabe sounds really good and so does the greddy evo. So now which is better of the two. By price, sound and the performance. Also i heard the clips on both and was wondering if the noise is very loud. Like if i roll in on saturday night will i wake up the whole street because I dont want it that loud.

I'm suprised he even got a Ractive product to fit. I have heard nothing but horror stories about the cheap brand intakes not fitting at all. For that much money go for a quality system. I would recoemnd the Apexi World Sport Exhaust system.

They only make the Super Racing Medalion for our cars. It might only say Racing, but its still the Super Racing. Welcome to the Tanabe family.


http://www.first-1.com is probably the cheapest site I have seen. Less than $500 shipped.
