Wouldn't Tanabe just overpower the sound of intake? That's why I'm afraid to get any exhaust with F-sport intake. Kind of waste of money to have both. I know intake kicks in at 3500 to 4000 rpm but Tanabe has this droning sound at around the same rpm. I had Tanabe and never going back.

I think the IS is way too quiet when stock.. and the Fsport intake was not enough for me

the difference is not huge. but there is a difference. its hard to tell on video. but the car sounds a little bit more agressive.
a guy who owns an M5 sat in my car the other day and said the car sounds like his friends G35 with aftermarket exhaust, specially on load.
Performance, nothing huge as far as peak gains, but id say the low RPM power has gone up and when engine braking the car sounds better. it makes me wanna down shift all the time. lol
Ive only had the midpipe for like 1000 miles, Ive heard that it gets meaner and louder as time goes on. I think that will be just perfect.
