Question

Been searching around for a while and was wondering if anyone could tell me what exhaust system will be the quietest and deepest sound for my GS? Need all the help I can get.

Default i was thinking

T,

the quality of TANABE hyper med woud be the one for the gs. for ~$590, it is very reasonable, consider it is the entire thing, not just the end section.

but, according to rodney of mas wheel in SF, tanabe is pretty loud, under full WOT. if quiteness is what you like, better go for the l-tune/ borla.

Default L-Sportline exhaust

I swear this should be my last question on this subject. Does anyone know anything about the L-sportline exhaust for the GS. If someone could tell me what it sounds like, I would appreciate it.

Thumbs up Exaust guestion

I have had the Tanabe on two other vehicles. On was the G medallion. It was great sounding exhaust and was not very loud. Then again it was a built Integra Type R.

The other Tanabe i have is the Racing medallion, it is very loud, However this is two on a built car (98 turbo supra).

I can tell you that the quality of Tanabe is great and I would think you would be happy with it. However I have no idea on the exhaust sound.

i think not very many members have the l-sportline exhaust because of the cost factor.

the same goes for its suspension stes. its costs ~$1000, for the money, you can get the coilovers.

You should Check out the GReddy system. it's a cat-back system. Looks great and adds about 11hp over all. Also, the system that GReddy makes is made for a U.S. Spec. GS. The Tanabe is not. As far as Borla, they should stick to the domestic. I has aborla and i hated it. Wait until you have a warranty issue. I have waited almost a year, and still have not received my mony back. That exhaust system is a joke. I would go for anything other then borla. good luck on your venture.
