Sweeeeet, another orlando fitfreaker!

I've heard the tanabes are very quiet. Although I'm waiting for T1R to come out with their exhaust in May. I've heard great things about it from the GD owners. Although this exhaust will be a close second.

my friend has a concept g for his 2000 Civic si and it doesn't sound like a fart cannon, pretty quiet until you hit vtec then it's loud, pretty deep and throaty otherwise

lolz, dat fit looks familiar!!!

wow, dat pix was like when my car was literally a couple months old from the factory!

i picked up the car in late aug (25th to be exact) and then broke in the motor in 2 days (2000k miles) and then dropped off the car @ tanabe on the 3rd day!

i have the touring medallion and concept g rite now and all i can say is that they are both very distinctive of each other. Would y'all like some vidz?
