Default who has tanabe MT exhaust in CLH?

So after talking with people in the 2IS forum I think we have concluded the tanabe is the most quiet exhaust. So I am wondering who has that on a 250/350 (preferably on a 250) here. Im hoping to make it out to a meet in the next few weeks, but if not ill go with your suggestions haha.

Is there a droning while cruising around on the freeway at 60-70 mph?

Thanks

I was the R/D for Tanabe on the ISF. I really like the low end torque...sound is slightly more noticable than stock but you do not hear any hummmmm during crusing speed.

hmmm thats good to hear. Im not sure if you having a giant V8 vs my mini V6 would affect the tone of the pitch.

But the way it looks, I think ill be getting this once I get my tax refund.

I've got them on my GS. Very Quiet. But you know its there its got a nice gurgle with the SRT intake under normal load...
As far as IS's George's car sounds nice. Nice low pitch.
