Like imbuggin, I felt the Blitz exhaust was a bit on the quieter side. Having owned a GS400 with a JIC Bullet exhaust, I had been accustomed to quite a bit of rumble at all RPMs. Though I have to admit that the Bullet exhaust's sound note would have been a bit too extreme for the SC430, I did want the car to sound more sporty.
Finally, with the addition of the LMS supercharger, the exhaust 's sound potential has been reached. The supercharger when called upon really makes the car roar.

How much HP does it gain?
Thanks

Ive just found a UK site that can sell me a Tom's exhaust cheaper then I can buy a Blitz one over here...
Anyone got one of these or knows how it compares to the Blitz.
Edit..
Found some specs...
Specification/full stainless steel make, SUS304 material, pipe diameter 60 Ö, tail diameter oval 120 Ö,
exhaust volume 82 dB (as for genuine muffler 81 dB)
Guess that means its about the same sound

yeah pretty much the same sound then
but are you sure you can get it for cheaper? the blitz is cat back, but for the toms, i believe it's muffler back, and if you want the cat back you have to pay another extra for that pipe, which makes the exhaust exceptionally expensive.
if you can get the full catback toms for about the same price, that's hella nice

Yep ypur right, the site did'nt have it listed very well.. just looked at l-tunedparts and can see what you mean as they stock the other pipes..
and yes when you add it all up that is exceptionally expensive.

check i-m-racing.com like dprsupra said. If they don't have it then i'm sure l-tunedparts.com could get it for you. Or tmengineering.com.
Not many have had experiences with the exhaust so don't expect an immediate answer about where they have gotten it.

When I first started looking last year nobody had one in stock either so it's probably going to be a special order item. I lucked out and got a used one from a fellow board member.
