Thanks everyone!!! It is a 5AT and yes a little drone but its Beautiful
Compared to Fast Intentions Sam i gotta be Honest i Love FI but for my personal taste Tanabe owns .
3 Set-ups with Fast Intentions
CF Catback W/out X pipe
CF W X-Pipe/18' Resonators
SS Catback W X-Pipe/18' Resonators.
.
To me Tanabe is more exotic/deeper and even Throatier then the FI . Don't get me wrong that system offering a TD Catback for the $$$ is Fantastic but i also wanted something not many people had and im extremely happy with my choice. If only FI did not have such low hanging mufflers and better tips i would probably be all over it. Tanabe is by far the BEST looking exhaust but that's just my opinion. Gorgeous Tips, and Perfect Angled/flush mufflers , outstanding design frome the Y-Pipe to Mid-pipe wich looks SICK from rear with that Crossbar sitting low by my rear sway bar
.
I sold my R2C intakes only because i'm replacing with Stillen Gen 3 so for now im completely stock other then Tanabe Catback. I will be ordering RHFC to get more sound out this system.

WOW!!!!!.....i'm honestly in shock. I can't believe the difference the Y and Mid pipe made. hmmmm....I have a feeling we're going to have quite a few comparison vids next spring 
I love it man, seriously, It sounds great! I'd actually like to hear this on a 6MT too...

I hope I can get better videos this week! Needs to break in but will use a higher quality Camera rather then I PHONE lol . I had just installed and since nobody really has a Full exhaust from Tanabe I had to post something.
Boosah also will be posting videos but his will include R2C intakes !
Thanks Lance it truly is amazing in person , Mark will be adding his FI exhaust I bet that would sound sick w No resonators lol.

You don't know Diego at all yet do you?
You'll come to find out that he likes to try....prrrrrretty much every setup you can possibly have......twice...LOL!
Got my Y pipe installed. What a difference, sounds more aggressive but not just sounds I feel the car pulling a bit harder. Love Tanabe! Now I can say I have a full Tanabe Catback, anyone on the fence for this set up should jump on it, IMO is worth every penny.
And thanks again for the info Diego. You da' man!

Nice^^^ man can't believe no Mid pipe for sedans that was the biggest diff I noticed when adding each piece. Our stock mid pipes suck at least for the coupe.
