these mufflers are ____ty and they dont flow so well. i know cuz i worked at midas and it's midas's performance muffler choice. i hope it's cheap. it wont be crap but it's not the best is all. just dont get a "z" wave .

well i saw it on tv while ago when it was still SPEED VISION or TNN

and yes it was on one of those car shows too

i'm just looking for some thing different really

yes i'm only doing just to be different like to stand out in a small crowd

lol , um if u take it to a shop and have em weld a universal muffler it'll only cost like 40 bucks and u choose any muffler anywhere and it'll take less time 4 them to weld a muff in than for most peeps to bolt a direct fit in.

it has a tag that says tanabe. do you think it is a copy or something fake???

ok i retract my previous statement it looks to be authentic tanabe , but all universals are the same , that and if u look at that outer wrap of metal that is riveted into place , that is an annoying rattle just waiting to happen , i've seen it happen two or three times , oh and 80mm is 3 inch so that is a turbo car muffler , too much for our lil non turboed 1.5's that and a pain to bump up almost an inch. stick with a 2.25 or 2.5 inlet diameter. and the "hot' tanabe look is the "racing medallion" style versus the tuner medallion.
