Sorry everyone. Will not be keeping these. Was going to go with Tanabe or Megan's. I'll let someone else be the guinea pig.

Betty - why does your link say Tanabe?

There's no way I'm installing knock off parts on my G. The reason they're half the price is because they're half the quality and don't sound like real Tanabe's. You get what you pay for when it comes to aftermarket parts.

My bad. Very sorry about that. I was sent this link a while back by someone asking me about my Tanabe's and if I thought it was a good price. I didn't look closely at the ad; I guess I should have before posting it up. Now I know the reason that's such a good price! Sorry about that.

Hey Tim
I know you posted up vids
I forgot if the vids you posted up had the Injen SRI and Tanabe exhaust together
as I am thinking of this combination too
I think I might go Tanabe exhaust, Berks HFC first
and then add the Injen SRI

Yeah his vids (located here: https://www.myg37.com/forums/intake-...ake-video.html) were the combo of Injen SRI and Tanabe....sounds good IMO. That's why I'm about to run the exact same combo.

Honestly, I think you should go with Megan axleback.
1. It sounds great, at least in the Youtube vids it does.
1. Its $400, if you install in and realize later you want the stock exhaust, you wont lose as much when you sell it back.

All worked out in the end. Seller was a gentleman. Cancelled the transaction and refunded the money.

Real Tanabe's ordered!

Betty - I think you owe me a discount on a set of your infamous grounding kit.
