tanabe exhaust

yes i know theres a parts review section but i didnt see much there so im just wondering if anyone has this exhaust or what you guys think. i was thinking about ordering magnaflow off the internet but im not sure if its really going to be what i think it is, a performance shop near me gave me a price for the tanabe which they think is the best and its alot more than off the net. so let me know what u think.

I have the Tanabe Super Racing Medallion. I've had it about 6 months now. N/A it sounds very good. Not at all ricey. It sounds a lil' ricey from a cold start, but that's pretty much how most exhausts are. Its pretty deep, and screams up top. It does quiet down a bit when u add a turbo. I have 3 clips of the exhaust in the "Exhaust clips" thread at the top of this sub-forum

Here's a few pics:

The hyper sounds more like a muffled SRM. Not as straight sounding from the header as the SRM is.

the canister design is different. The SRM is a cylinder type striaght through design and the hyper is more of a muffler design and tip.

The hyper is an excellent exhaust

Just another bit of info----> each exhaust passed the 95db street exhaust law (*not sure though if that was with or w/o the silencer*)
