Tanabe or Greddy exhaust?
Which would you choose and why? I still need to listen to the videos again but on those that have listened to them in person, which one sounds better? In better I mean which one has a deep sound? Any other Axle backs you guys would recommend. I don't like raspy sound so if it is raspy I wouldn't like it.

I've pondered this very same dilemma long and hard. At the end of the day I'm choosing Tanabe. Deep and throaty without sounding ricey and obnoxiously loud. I want something that makes the car sound powerful and a little exotic and I think the Tanabe is the one to go with. I don't have it yet but should by the end of next week.

greddy FTW, tanabe doesnt deliver enuf BANG if u will, its a little more refined for the quiter and less ricey sound, i like greddy personally because its a bit more beefier, although the tanabe pipes i like better look more stock as Ti-C looks ricey but for me its the sounds if it was bout power id hit the borla up no questions asked but it is a lil raspy for me

I've had both, and I love the Greddy, especially without the silencers, but that might be too loud for your taste. The Greddy just gives the car a different presence when you accelerate. I get so many looks when I'm in the high rpm's. The Tanabe has a much more mature sound. The sound that the Tanabe has is what the exhaust should've sounded like from the factory, it also keeps that same tone under normal driving conditions, bust growls when you take off.
The Greddy is still the deepest though even with the silencers on.

Bartender is the neighbor... We drink in the cul-de-sac nearly every Friday and Saturday night. Since we drink so much, we're in the process of subscribing to a keg service to where a beer truck would pull up in front of the house every 2 weeks to replenish. Lol... We have a fun time in the neighborhood. No need for a bar.

What else are you considering to do with the exhaust system? If you get the Greddy, since it has a mid-pipe, you can just get a y-pipe to go full cat-back. If you're not planning to do anything else, than Tanabe's the way to go.

I really just need to get ride of this stupid stock mufflers right now. The dang things sound like crap and I have a buzzing sound coming from them when I step on the gas and I already got my mufflers changed out with the updated ones. The new muffler just doesn't play well with the HFCs or at least mine don't.
