Tanabe exhaust options for sedan
So I went for the Tanabe axle-back exhaust and so far I like it. Stress the word "like." I can hear it, and I like the sound, but it's very mellow and quiet. I know it will take time to break in, and I will wait for that. But I was curious if anyone with the sedan has installed either the Tanabe mid-pipe and/or the Tanabe y-pipe to make it a full cat-back exhaust?
If anyone has videos or pictures, that would be great! I've searched this forum and youtube extensively and I can't find anything...

I have the Tanable axle back exhaust as well and felt like I was in the same boat as you but then I got installed a Megan Racing Y Pipe and Fast Intentions Resonated High Flow Cats and it gives me the perfect sound that I was after. I can hear it perfectly during normal acceleration and it is amazing at WOT.

the Y pipe doesn't change the sound at all with the tanabe axle back. you need to swap out the resonators with some smaller high flow ones. i used vibrant 12" #1790 on mine.

So the resonators are in the mid-pipe, right? If I get the Tanabe mid-pipe, that would have better sounding resonators? Or are you saying that you can (and did) replace ONLY the resonators?
Edit: I saw your cost, that's not bad at all. How does it sound inside the cabin with the windows rolled up? I'd like to be able to hear/feel the exhaust a little more.

as far as with the windows rolled up, it's still very noticable even with the radio on. and no rasp or drone noise.
the difference the vibrant resonators made is HUGE about 80% louder then just the tanabes, and in a good way not ricey at all.
