I have had the cat back on my Z for a little over a year and I have been happy with it. There are a lot better systems out there but I chose it for the sound and price. I hated the tin can sound of the Z.

Tanabe is definitely louder. It has decent amount of drone in cabin.

My cat back is definately louder, in start up and on the street and I have the baffles in compared to stock. You take those out and I am sure it will be plenty loud.


My car draws enough attention with the baffles in.

I agree with the Last Quote he got on it in the parking lot and by second gear you finally heard a low growl ...The Tanabe geeze for the price I love my set up...now I'm saving up for Coilovers and a Set of Vossens!

But go with what you can afford...till later...theres a guy in CA selling a Axel back for 250... looks like my Stock Sport I have in the Garage... but even my stock was louder than the Megan...go figure?

I agree Boom... the Megan is a Single with dual outlet like our Factory...well the one I seen... I love the Dual Canister look yet its way Way lighter too!
For me being dropped I needed to be lighter in the rear... but that was due to my current Springs which are Tein...but half way there to get my Coil set up... then Vossens here I come... maybe Concept One when their new line up comes out?
