I don't believe it has been released yet. I believe it should be out next month. However, when it does come out, it should be a bolt on kit.

I got told from hopupracing.com that it will be out end of may. Its going to be 575 bucks. and even if it is bolt on, you should still have it welded on also. Just my suggestion

There is no real good reason to have that exhaust welded in. Don't waste your $.

I read on the Tanabe site that the Touring is VERY close to stock sound.
I am still looking for HKS mufflers to have welded on.

Why would what a weld on, should the bolt on work alittle better....no sawing off the pipes?

Since our cat is welded on our stock exhaust, wonder if the Tanabe comes with its own cat w/ its bolt on exhaust system. BTW, isn' t the exhaust on a 350 and 250 the same?
