tanabe exhaust again..;;

yeah. i think i'll get "tanabe hyper exhaust" from ebay soon..
and get the custom piping..
i went to shop and he said that just for the custom piping would be $65, but if i get cat-back piping, that would be $165... do you guys think it's worth? and..good price??

(btw, i decided to go with just one exhaust...)

i would say 100 at the most depending on how well you can talk him down..and how many bends are in the piping....the pipe alone should only be like 15-20 bucks...you can buy them at home depot...the labor is what gets you....how many bends in the pipe will determine labor

i have a tanabe hyper medallion and love it, you will too. When i got mine everyone on this board hated on it, "oh that exhaust has the worst drone i have ever heard on a car". It is one of the best exhausts i have heard on a car, and stays quiet. I bought a catback for a 94-97 accord and had it modded to fit, cost me 140, but its all stainless.
