I'm looking at getting the Tanabe Hyper Medalion Exhaust but I was wondering if anyone had a pic of one actually installed on a 4th gen because I've seen the pictures of what the kit looks like but I want to know what it's going to look like on the car before I spend the money.

I actually got the tanabe racing medallion on mah lude..... its really loud, to tell you the truth, but not apexi n1 loud nor ricey loud....its like a deep, low tone.... piping wise, it hangs pretty low, so i mite have to adjust the hangers somehow so that i could drop mah car lower.....but besides that, its a pretty good exhaust besides the 650 i paid for it..=p honestly, i'd go with the greddy sp

I haven't really looked at the Greddy stuff much because from everything I can find they only make stuff for the 2.2 VTEC. I have a 2.3 Si I guess from the cat back its all the same though so it would work?

yeah, i had a problem when i took it to the shop to get installed....they said it wouldn't fit..i figured tanabe sent me the exhaust for a 2.3L si, but they ended up drilling holes, and everything fits fine now.=P

What I herd was the apeci N1 was a better exhaust and cheaper for the money. They said if you want to realy tune you car in, the N1 is it.

I've heard that in terms of power the N1, Tanabe, and Greddy SP are very close on cars not running forced induction. But that the Tanabe is quieter at idle and smoothly progresses in volume as the revs increase. I've seen an N1 on a 4th gen in person... It looks pretty nice but its loud as hell. I'm don't really care for GReddy exhaust systems. The only ones I've ever seen and liked have been on RX-7s. That's why I've been leaning toward the Tanabe, from everything I've read and heard they are going be the most subtle change both cosmeticly and in regards to sound, while still maintaining the performance gains.

thermal exhaust it kinda loud, piping not low at all, and it looks pretty good, not sure about the performance gains though, anyone know if they are good gains for a lude?
