Sorry if you already mentioned it, but did you get your axle back through Ebay, and if you did, which seller?

topspeed has an account that sells them directly on ebay. It's called topspeed something, lol.

I bought it right off of topspeeds website. Not a big fan of ebay

[QUOTE=BluestickG;3419075]I have the straight tip version, so it has silencers. Sounds Identical to the tanabe system, well before i installed the test pipes haha


So on the product catalog which one is it?

TOP SPEED AUTO ACCESSORIES, INC.

Resonated or non-resonated? And I am assuming in your video that you removed the silencers?

Also bluestickG do you have any other sound clips? And any negatives about this exhaust system (Reason why its $600 less than tanabe for the same sound) ?

As I said, the non-resonated version is pretty loud and drones, but the beveled tips look nicer. I haven't heard the one with straight tips and silencers, but after hearing the non-resonated/beveled one, I think it's too loud and would try the other ones.

It's always wet here in oregon and my dad might spend a minute polishing up those cans once in a while. No rust issues so far.

this is the one i bought. Its the resonated one. The only reason why it is so loud is because i have berk test pipes.

No unfortunatly I dont. No negatives that ive seen so far. Ive only had it for 5 months but then again if rusts or whatever after a year it was only 200 bucks. Buy another one hahah

Sython

I think I'm definitely jumping on this axle back in a couple months. You guys have me convinced. I start my new job tomorrow so I want to get settled first so no big purchases until then

Thanks everyone.

Just to be clear, this is the one without removable silencers... it'll be louder.

Wow I don't like the sound of that exhaust at all. Maybe it's the test pipes.

FYI, the replica Tanabe is louder than the actual Tanabe. The replica is under 97db, the actual Tanabe is under 93db. There IS a difference. Not to mention the fit & finish of the genuine product, which is A+

At the end, you always get what you paid for

Installed! I think they are a great buy so far (for the money)....
Love the sound. Reminds me somewhat of the deep rumble in a 4.6 mustang with Flowmasters.
Its actually not to loud when cruising, but under acceleration. well.... lets just say you will be noticed. Still though, its not obnoxiously loud.

At first the driver side tip was a bit high and the the passenger side a bit lower. I finagled with the bolting flanges for a bit but it didnt help much so I bent the passenger side hanger on the muffler down a bit to get the tip to sit higher and they look pervert now.

here's a couple vids of the OEM Vs. Top speed... there is a bit of rasp-gurgle that Im pretty sure is from the massive amounts of water still in the exhaust from the cold start up as it is prevalent in the OEM sound as well...

Sounds really good, but it does seem like some of that VQ purr is lost. I am still on the fence between this and the Megan racing.

Sython

Thanks for the video onehighfocus. I don't think the VQ purr is lost, it is just has a lot more bass in it. I'd love to get some more videos (in car, drive by, etc.) if possible...

Again, thanks
