Default GS460 Tanabe exhaust install

Tanabe makes a first class product. Fit and finish are impeccable.
The sound quality is exactly what I wanted. Not harsh or raspy at all. At startup it has a deeper tone. Taken right up to 6500 it sounds very clean. Not objectionable at all.
I’ve installed Corsa, Miltek Magnaflow and TRD. None had the quality,fit and sound the Tanabe produced.
The 460 did have a lot to do with it though also.

Thanks,
I spend majority of my time on other sites. I prefer to remain at large and not support any particular forum
Maybe sometime your at PGP or an D1 event in Monroe we can share background

Good Luck

For those who want a cat back exhaust
that compliments the Lexus GS platform the Tanabe is very well in rhythm with the feel.
