I've had mine on my 250 for over a month now and I still get pumped everytime I hear the note. Its a mother to keep clean though so if anyone finds a way to keep the tips looking like new let me know. On the hp part I couldnt notice a difference at all, I mean it is only an axle back so there isnt much to play with.

haha jk... i know what you mean... i just use my detailer spray, and wipe as much of the carbon? off the tip as i can. usually i can get it pretty clean, not perfect, but unless you look at it really closely, it looks good.

I do the same but I use 20/20 Glass cleaner and it works alittle. If it rains for a few days and it builds up a **** load of carbon thats when I have a problem because some of the carbon just stains and the Tanabe exhaust has slightly over 3 inch tip so being a perfectionist and having the stains just stresses me out when I detail her (Alexus) everyday.

Hey guys, I noticed this thread on the exhaust. We have this exhaust on group buy right now. It is 559.00 shipped and can be found here https://www.clublexus.com/forums/sho...d.php?t=259848
Also as a note, Tanabe is currently out of stock, but will be sending me more in about two weeks. So we will be keeping our GB going for as long as you guys want it.

naww but i know what you guys mean.. my prelude had an exhaust and it was clean for awhile then i got really lazy and my exhaust turned black and basically looked stock haha i guess the key is to wash your car every weekend which i do rain or shine at my local hand wash place... and maybe now ill request that they wipe the exhaust down too
