I got g37x and I want to spice it up abit with a little added roar, so I bought tanabe medallions axlebacks and berk resonated test pipes. I tried installing them and faced a problem of rusted bolts, gave up and decided I might as well do full exhaust swap to make sure that the exhaust sounds as good as it possibly can without any bottlenecks from restrictive stock.
So im looking into used market found couple options
1) arc grip for 600 but hearing that it sits very low and scrapes alot made me decide against it.
2) TANABE T50132 for around $250 which I like the idea of because I already got tanabe axleback but Im not completely sure what else ill need to get to finish my exhaust
3)This guy on FB said its stillen Exhaust selling it for $500 (pic below)
Also I might just get something new if its cheap enough so yeah im open to suggestions :P

If it were me, and I already had the Tanabe axle back, I'd install the axle back, remove the stock resonators and install the Vibrant resonators guys have recommended in other builds and install the Berks you already have. That alone, is going to dramatically change the tone. From there, if more is wanted, I'd talk to a shop about replacing the Y pipe to 2.5 and mate that to the existing mid pipe back to the mufflers. Shouldn't be more that $200 give or take. That's going to basically give you an entirely new exhaust without 'burning' the cash you already spent.

yeah I really like that idea, could you clarify which resonators are u talking about? Also which y pipe would you recomend?
I can't recall off the top of my head but they're mentioned in the exhaust section. Vibrant 12'' resonators - hopefully someone can chime in w/ thepart #.
As for the Y-Pipe, just get any exhaust shop to cut one for you. No sense in spending the cash on a name brand y-pipe IMO.
If the ARk Grip is in good condition, I would grab that. It's a $1300-1700$ exhaust brand new so for 600$, you can easily use it and sell it again for ~$500-600 and make your money back. But if its pretty beat up, then I would go with the Tanabe
