Tanabe;s are not rice. They're actually a great brand. BUT, they ARE loud.

Get a turbo and the exhaust quiets down.

Any Tanabe sounds really good- my boyfriend has one on his Accord- I have the Thermal R & D. Neither sound ricey. But I agree it sounds the best with my turbo on my car now!

The tanabe RSpec is a great system, it is loud and sounds mean. But if your looking for a true sleeper exhaust system the RS*r has a almost stock looking system. NOt my style but from your choise i would go with the Rspec

If you dont have a turbo the SRM is pretty loud. ALso it has a 4 in canister so if u want your car to be a sleeper, it is gonna stick out like a sore thumb. But with all this said, it is still a really great exhaust. I love it!
