EDIT: Finally pics-see post below
Been waiting for this for months, finally got it installed yesterday at TM Engineering (thanks Todd!). For anyone wanting a catback exhaust that sounds great but is not too loud at a decent price-look no further!
This thing is a work of art (pics coming soon) and is VERY well made. Talk to Gordon at Carson Toyota if interested-they got a shipment in but these are selling fast from what I've heard...

It starts at the center, single cat and goes back from there (including new resonators). VERY nice quality pipe, mufflers etc. even the hangers are very heavy duty all with beautiful welds. Perfect fit, nice tips-overall a perfect 10! I do have pics of the previous exhaust (RMM) which was just the rear section with the rest all stock (i.e. resonators etc.) I did not measure the size of pipe but can do so when I get a chance...
Thanks to Steve G. and Gordon at Carson for the good deal on this.

I paid for this a long time ago; seems like it was around $900 or so...

LOL!
I was about to post saying that someone had video clips-thanks beaterKU for posting that!
Yeah, it sounds real healthy especially with the intake roar at WOT.
SUPRAboy80- the Carson website shows this exhaust at $989 list, but talk to Steve G. (or email) and see what he can do. Ask for a CL discount...
Don't remember exactly what I paid, but it was closer to $900 or less. Not a GREAT deal, but a GOOD deal. Not that expensive really considering it is a catback system, not just rear section (i.e. mufflers and tips only). For example, compare to the prices of some of the other exhausts on the Carson site!

Guys keep in mind that the price is relative to the yen in Japan. Every month it could be less or more. When I got the Carson Tuned put on over a year ago the price was in the $800 range. Thank God it was sponsored..
I must say, it is one fo the nicest exhaust out for our cars and totally worth the price.
Enjoy it guys...

Yeah, I remember when you got yours and thinking how nice it looked! Sounds very similar to my rear section RMM which is good-not loud while cruising.
