Default Tanabe Concept G good Superchargerd Scion TC?????

I was wondering if that exhaust would work with a Supercharger or Turbo without any problems. I read on the official site that it's for a N/A Scion TC but I was wondering if anyone has it on a Supercharged TC and if it is compatible?

I have been looking at this exhaust as well and would like to know. I dont see why you wouldnt be able to use it. I just dont know the gains it would net. I wish there was more testing on this exhaust, i see tons of soundclips and videos but no dyno.

It'll work fine. If you have a stock or mild supercharger or mild turbo setup, you really won't need an exhaust larger than 2.5" in diameter. I believe Dezod is the only company that has an exhaust designed for the turbo. A couple items that would help all tC's (NA, s/c, or turbo) are an upgraded s-pipe and hi-flow cat.

Ya I wouldnt go bigger than 2.5". There is no point unless your going for insane horsepower.

The Tanabe exhaust is only an axleback, and will work in ALL applications, NA or FI

You can go with ANY exhaust as long as it's 2.5. Exhaust piping Size has a lot to do with it. There is no such thing as Designed for a Turbo or Designed for N/A. Make sure it's Stainless Steal, and minimum of 2.5 and be sure it's not just an axle back. Get a full exhaust to benefit the most. We run the ZPI exhaust before and After our turbo.

do we have any sound clips or dyno tests with the tanabe exhaust. Obviously with other parts such as header, mid pipe etc. or even a turbo?
