Hey guys
I just got my Tanabe exhaust installed today and been driving around for a little bit today and I absolutely love it I encourage anyone out there want to do some work on your GS go get it. Now I am just have to look for an intake for it. Anyway, I thought I would shard a little bit of what I think of the Tanabe exhaust......

 

kindly post pics..

 

what do you think as far as droning. Do you hear it most of the trime or just when you are pushing the car. I am going to pick mine up tommorrow

 

Personally, I think it is a great sound it is not too overly loud but at around 3000rpm I think it sounds the best, but since I still working on getting a intake so when I push it right now the sound mostly come from the motor, but overall I would rate this exhaust as an A.

 

I am going to pick mine up from a local dealership that carries them. I got a smoking deal, but I have to drive about 100 miles round trip. Do what you have to do

 

I am curious if the owners who have added the Tanabe exhaust have noticed a marginal performance boost? When I was tuning my G35 a few years ago, an Invidia exhaust offered an immediate HP improvement (the G35 VQ engine is known to have airflow restrictions). A new Crawford Plenum and then High-Flow Cats each banged the performance/acceleration/boost upward remarkably. What have you all noticed so far?

I'm not sure about the loudness issue either- one of the reasons I made such a drastic vehicle change (the G35 would ROAR during full open throttle) was to get to a super quiet, relaxing ride like the Lexus G.

 

any clips on the noise? i remember when my mom had a 2005 gs300 with the Greddy exhaust (yes guys my mom! hard to believe but she was pimpin lol.) and it sounded awesome. does this one sound better?

 

Look up the vids for the Tanabe on the IS350. The sound is the exact same for the GS350.
