I think it's been out for awhile already.....

 

i think this one is different .. the so called .. "touring catback" .

 

interesting.

 

my bad about the post earlier haha. but makes me wonder why?

 

the video sounds like shite

 

The link to that picture take you to the exhaust I have, which is the Tanabe Hyper Medallion.

 

^ lol wth at your sig. lol

 

not HYPER medallion. MEDALLION TOURING. totally different

 

why don't you email them....

its probably a redesign of the SMH since the SMH are discontinued...

 

no i have the same version on my IS350. totally different exhaust, quiet at idle. but mean when u stomp on it.

 

I spoke to a Tanabe rep a while ago while asking about the Hyper and he mentioned this new one. Said is very similar to the Hyper.. I like the tone / sound.. just not much of a fan of the tips tho..

 

the medallion tips look good i think, anyone have them yet?

 

I never update that thing man...

 

i wonder if they are out yet? EXCELERATE AND HEELTOE do u guys have them? lol

 

Just Noticed that the Part Numbers for the CL and TL are different: http://www.tanabe-usa.com/touringmedalion.asp?id=7

In the TL Type-S say "Coming Soon" and States part number "T70078" when the CL Type-S is perhaps available Now but the part Number is "T70074"? I wonder if it would bolt-on easily in the TL-S since I wanted to buy a Cat-back since stone age lol...

 

Terrible choice of video i should say... the whole time he was floorin it, and his cai and vtech was makin all the noise... but it was ok when he was in the garage.

 

i have the hyper medallion exhaust for a cl-s on my tl-s. (got the whole thing for $200 brand new) bolted right up but the tips are about 1 inch in from being flush with the rear bumper. and i have not melted the rear bumper in almost 2 years.

that honestly doesent sound much different than my hyper setup.

 

We will post up a Groupbuy as we closer to the time when these exhaust will arrive in the US.

 

rather spend money on the atlp catback.. my tsudo axleback with midmuffler delete sounds nicer than the tanabe catback, no offense to you tanabe owners.

 

none taken.. my isht was cheap thats the only reason i have it. lol

 

^mind I ask how you got it so keep?

is it just new tips? or is there an actual muffler that goes with this?

and I assume you all have the Intake Res removed right?

 

no it was a full cat back setup. i bought it from a fellow soldier who was moving back to the states, and he sold the car on the uk economy, so he had this brand new exhaust in a shed in his yard. he posted it up for sale and i called. i had no idea that it would fit, but i tried it and it did. the only difference is theres longer tips on the tl's.
