Tanabe vs FI CBE

Just got fi cbe installed, nothing much to say about it. i think id take tanabe + y-pipe + midpie combo. i also know that tanabe full catback combo will sound louder than the F.I. because muffler it self was louder. F.I exhaust is really really quiet.


here is the video, first one is tanabe only.
<object width="480" height="385"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/H12Z0cRIWYM?fs=1&amp;hl=ko_KR"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/H12Z0cRIWYM?fs=1&amp;hl=ko_KR" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="480" height="385"></embed></object>



Video 2, F.I Exhaust.
<object width="640" height="385"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/nZiL3qFv2Rk?fs=1&amp;hl=ko_KR"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/nZiL3qFv2Rk?fs=1&amp;hl=ko_KR" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="640" height="385"></embed></object>

MAKE SURE TO WATCH IT IN HQ.

Its the magnaflow xpipe ot hpipe? Version. Yeah tanabe does sounds good for only a muffler. And no, in that video it was only muffler.

Too bad you gotta get rid of your tanabes once you're new FI is ready.

OP: really you think FI is quiet. Maybe with the magnflow hpipe. I think you're the first person to say that.

No I did not, my installer just toyed with it for a few minutes and got it to fit.
