Default Tanabe exhaust systems

What are the differences between a Tanabe Super Medallion Hyper Exhaust system and the Tanabe Medallion Touring Exhaust system?

tips and sound
SMH tips are thinner and sounds has a higher pitch than the MT

when it comes down to it, just depends on personal taste, imho.

Tanabe's MT is one of the sexiest exhaust on the market for the GS. The resonators on the y-pipe are removed, the set-up sits flush and secure with no sag, and the sound WOT, well, is just amazing.

Be prepared to loose some low end torque with either.
