Tanabe exhaust/or Greddy TiC? ? ?

I'm not into loud loud exhaust, but definately want the car to sound more refined type. I dont want to drive by my house 20mph and have people think its a motorcyle or something. I listened to tons of greddy tic, it sounds deep, I like it, but I'm not sure, once i drive by house, or local streets/ its going to be to loud, or the inside cabin noise with it. Found good prices, to my best knowledge, it comes with the midpipe and mufflers for $700-900. On the other side Tanabe is good sound for me, but maybe after a while, ill probably regret not going an above step. However both makes on their website state that they are under 93/94 db, greddy i guess if you take out the silencer the number will change. Also tanabe is like $700 just the muffler. I'm sure there a louder better exhaust with HFC, so I guess these are baby type. You guys tell me. I also shopped around, and just for the time etc. I would probably just get the short fujita intake, or injen. Thanks for your suggestions? Anybody got this combo fujita/tanabe or greddy tic/fujita

Really liked the Tanabe when I had it. It's very mature sounding. Ti-C with silencer will be quieter than Tanabe. Ti-C without silencer will be loud, much louder than Tanabe.

I don't think you'd be getting that much gain from the Ti-C anyway, so I'd just go with whatever you think sounds better to you and not worry about mid-pipe back vs axle-pipe.

havent heard the TiC in person but I can vouch for the Tanabe. I had my brother drive it around and sounds really good. ucla bruin said it best the Tanabe's look and sound mature, compared to the Greddy's. Actually, imo, the TiC looks cheap from behind the car.

BUMP.

WOW thanks a LOT! ! I'm a 29 year old working professional. I had a 1999 honda civic si while going to high school/ college with the catback etc. I remember coming into my house, I use to wake up the people at night. I love cars, but just needed that re-fined sound. Looks like i'll be going for tanabe, last i'm opt for either fujita/injen/takeda short intake.

Your stock inakes will perform better than any SRI jut add drop in filters , I had injens and jwt and loss of TQ period !!! Besides intakes made the car sound like a Civic with that noise intakes make, you want refined I'd say just add tanabe mufflers and leave it alone, can't get better than that ... GL man

Unless you tune your car intakes are useless and only for sound ! Save your $$ dude !!! Nissan/Infiniti has to beutiful of an exhaust tone and intakes take away from hearing your exhaust tone. I love to hear more exhaust than intakes.

Tanabe sounds really good imo ... especially when they're going to release the ypipe and stuff. Make more power while you're at it.

I wonder when they are going to make the Y-Pipe available to the public, isnt that sheet dyno online with their Y pipe+ MiDpipe+ muffler. How much can you gain with just Tanabe y-pipe and tanabe muffler only. Takeda intakes= WIN? Do you have videos with you car with that intake on? I dont intend purchasing intakes, I just want to hear that nice mature exhaust and off course its look. K&N filter and HKS, what's the real big difference. BUMP BUMP!
