Tanabe racing medallion on 4g
I got my tanabe racing medallion in today and couldn't wait to get put on. When down to the first shop and they wouldn't even help. So we went to another outside of town and they were quick to help me with smiles. Great customer service. Anyway, got it up on the rack and everything from the cat back was rusted to hell. No wonder my car was sounding like s*it. We BSed for a few and then agreed on 2 1/2 inch pipe from the cat back. It was nice to see the 1 1/2 inch fall to the ground and the 2 1/2 go up.
After paying $150 bucks for the labor and pipe. We went on our way. I couldn't wait to floor it. You can't even tell I have a CAI any more. The exhaust is so loud under load that you can't even hold a conversation inside the car. I think I'm going to go back and have a resonator put on. Its loud, but sounds clean and good. My wife hates the sound. You can't even tell I got exhaust from looking at the car.
Pics will be up soon. Gotta go over to the mother-in-laws to use the digital. And I will try to get a sound file up.
If your wondering why I didn't go farther with the exhaust. We are planning on a built up h22 for high boost and high flow cat and headers.
