cool let us know.. for 350 shipped, its not a bad deal at all... very affordable and the quality from the pics look decent at least.. i saw this a couple months back and was surprised at how cheap they were.. give us a review.. i look forward to reading it..

and chance, i thought you liked the tanabes? but yea, if its too quiet, i wonder why they discontinued the super hyper medallion line that i loved so much on the gs300...

Well a long story short,
It did not fit correctly and I sent it back and they refunded my money.
The quality of work and finish were good. It just did not fit well enough to work.
Sory for the long delay.

The sound was just like the Tanabe I had on the IS nice and mellow.
Fitment was the problem.

Since catback exhuast systems don't contribute to hp gain I was considering this system over tenabe because its much less. I just want something that has a sporty sound, not ricey, and looks good. Did you ever post the pics of the Top Speed Pro1 on your ride? How did it sound? You like it?

Way to revive a dead thread. Me and LKApimp have this topspeed exhaust, it's slightly louder than tanabe medallion once it breaks in (i think). For me it gives the car a purrr (like a cat) like a g35/37 but alittle quieter. The sound is only at low rpms, once u pass 3000 rpms, u only hear the engine.

What i am looking for is a Growl! (like a lion) That's why i am extending the Invidia midpipe and will be the first AWD 3GS 300 owner with this set up.
