They list it at 60mm, which means it is 2-3/8" piping, which coincidentally enough is exactly the same as my Berk HFC's. Hmmm... Seems like fate to me.

A,
Lou said non-Ti tips are not available. I asked him the same thing.

S

I already started looking for replacement tips LOL

[2GoRNot2G]

Eek!!! That sucks.

Oh well, guess I'll just stick with what I've got... not worth changing the entire exhaust if I'm still gonna have to replace the tips anyway (and probably add resonators). I'm really happy with mine and it sounds SO nice, so I guess I'll have to find something else to spend my $$ on. LOL

[E-Ticket Ride]

I wonder if that Ti coating can be buffed off? I assume it could.

Wonder why the tips aren't resonanted too?

I should try and make it to one of the OCG meets when I come home this summer.

Dude, your smoking crack lol
I've herd over 6 FI exhausts, 3 with hfc. The ones without hfc dont have drone but rasp like a mother fvcker. The ones with hfc, drone and rasp even worse.
We know a member on here, not going to say any names, his FI was so rasp we would try to either pass him or stay far behind him so it wont make us def lol

looks great by the way

I told Lou i wouldnt disclose the price to anyone, but you guys will not find a better deal that he will be giving you.

Also, do you think there is enough clearance between the pipe and the factory heat shields on the lower chassis to add resonators to the straight section of the midpipe right after the x-pipe? If it sounds as good as it looks and there really is't any rasp, then I may just have to sell my Tanabe and get one of these.

It is not available AT THIS MOMENT.
I will talk to Lou about it and tell him that there are requests for (regular polished tips).

And i dont think it needs a resonator at all. I talked to Lou 2 weeks before i wanted the exhaust about rasp and such. I asked him about resonators and what to do to make it deeper than raspier.
I out the exhaust one bro, and just after 1 hour of driving, it sounded beautiful. I drive with my windows down cuz it sounds so sexy lol

Next meet you come to bro, i'll take you for a drive.

Im sure it can but the way these are burt, you can change the pattern of the color. Its hard to explain, i would have to show you. But im sure you can get these polished off.

I ask about buffing off the finish because I personally don't like the look. If it can be polished off with aluminum polish or something similar, it would be a bonus as people who want a regular tipped exhaust wouldn't have to wait for Lou to bring them in.

Ya bro, i know exactly what you mean.
I do think it can be poloshed off though. My friend has HKS exhaust on his coupe and put some sort of acid on the tips it started to wipe it off lol
So its possible to take it off.

Sounds good, man... Lets make it soon, because I'm holding off on getting my custom mid-pipe done until I make this decision. No need to spend $600 on a custom mid-pipe if I'm gonna replace the entire exhaust. LOL

Yeah... I'm thinking that Easy-Off oven cleaner would probably do the trick... That sh!t can take almost anything off. LOL

Where the hell is Lou's vid?

BTW, I was pleasantly surprised by the price he quoted me, even with the shipping to get it over here to me. If it sounds halfway as decent as you're making it out to be, it's a done deal. Well, after I convince the wife, that is

Haha... Yeah, convincing the wife's th tough part! My wife hates most aftermarket exhausts... that's why I love my Tanabe... even with the Berk HFC's, it still sounds close enough to stock that she still doesn't even know that I changed anything. LOL

The last scenario of my "Suspension box being delivered by the USPS guy to the house while I wasn't home to receive it" and the subsequent call to me by the wife saying "What's this suspension box thing that was just delievered?" is still fresh in her mind lol.
