I agree you should check it out. I got the Tanabe cause of this It's such a great deep sound that I felt I could use even in a really conservative area and it does not sound at all like the rest I have heard (rice).

I got the Invidia axle back. Super quiet. Nice little hum when the motor is warm. The canister is huge though.

yeah dude I do have a manual, and i want to be the first to admit it, manual cars are so much more better than automatics. I would never want to own an automatic. All my cars are sticks.

It sounds great but it's not loud. It's a really deep sound that you will not really notice while driving around if you already have a CAI.

I notice a small HP gain also, but it's small.

I got it from this place and the shipping was very quick.

I have the Strup exhaust..axle backsetup. I love the sound at idle and thats about it. Drone w/o silencer at speed is very noticable. I must say that the optional silencer really helps reduce the sound in the interior. I just don't like the way it looks with the silencer in place.
