Thats why I was suggesting the comptech unit. Its perfect in just the regard you are seeking.

When I retired the car from daily driving to racing mainly...I switched over to the other system then.

I think the Tanabe system will be similar in sound to the comptechs too.
how are the power gains of the comptech compared to your greddy evi system??

im sure the comptech or tanabe if for me

Comptech was around 7whp gained (i would imagine tanabe is the same).... Other brands like XLR8/Greddy/ATLP will gain around 10-11whp

the big difference is the mid muffler.... all system offer resonated or non, but only comptech/tanabe or offering a mid muffler

ive owned the comptech & the ATLP... the comptech has a zippy.. almost VQ35 sound (G35/350z)... ATLP has ALOT more balls though

I wish I would have just went with comptech in the first place. It look much sleeker and better on the car. greddy is nice, but not to my taste any longer.

it is about 3-4 hp diff, not a big deal. Since I am boosted and catless, not a big deal!

Hmm, good deal on that XLR8 in the BM. I might just pic that up. Worst case scenario, I can always sell it if I'm not a fan, but I won't find one at that price for a while.

Lol, didn't get to install it yet. My friends shop is packed because of a stupid tank(H1). A car is HOPEFULLY leaving by saturday, and I hope to install it saturday aswell. I cant wait lol. I left it at his shop because if I had it I would be starring at it and thinking about it more and more and more and more lol.
