Street IMAGE INSTALLS FUJI/Tanabe Y pipe and MORE.

Hey guys.....

I went down to Street IMage again!!!! I got more stuff done to my car..........Guess what i did????? Suspense killing you yet?? I got my BORLA exhaust taken out. (gasp) I put in the FUJI exhaust with a Tanabe Y pipe, Samco Hoses installed, and my 45 K maintenance service done. SI has a maintenance guy now so we can all go there and get our service done for cheaper and have a better service. I am not afraid of the shop scraping my wheels anymore cause i know SI will take good care of my car. So go to SI for ur maintenance or oil change. They did mine!!!!

FUJI exhaust plus Y pipe sounds awesome. Its quieter than my borla thank goodness. no more droning....phew........i have some clips on imagestation also.

Click here for more images and 2 small mpegs...

Awesome sound. The drive by's sound nice.
I'm in the market for exhaust, and sound is 50% the deciding factor.
Did that sound come from the y-pipe and exhaust, or just the exhaust? Also, what was the cost of the exhaust, plus and minus the y-pipe.

thanks

Re: Street IMAGE INSTALLS FUJI/Tanabe Y pipe and M

well according to Clint, who is a very knowlegeable person, the drive by sound was basically all my pop charger so i think you have to hear it in person to differentiate the two.

Come on by....

THe tanabe Y pipe is That would be $519.75 plus tax/shipping where applicable. I got it from Speedalliance down in SD. PM me for a number if you need one.

I got the Fuji exhaust from Street IMage. I'll double check from SI. I didn't keep my receipt.... I'll get SI to print me another one!!

Re: Street IMAGE INSTALLS FUJI/Tanabe Y pipe and M

Yup, most of what you hear in the video was the JWT Pop-charger intake + Z-tube combination barking at you. The exhaust is not quite as intrusive (relatively speaking). It's very smooth and sporty ... unfortunately, the frequency it seats at is typically hard for a digital camera to pickup properly.

Here's a clip that better represents the exhaust tone quality.

From within the cabin, the exhaust is extremely non-intrusive (especially when cold). Just enough to let you know what the engine is doing. From the rear of the car, the impression is that of no mistake the car means business.

Re: Street IMAGE INSTALLS FUJI/Tanabe Y pipe and M

From the clip you just posted, i guess it's the movie, but it sounds kind of raspy as the rpms' go up..
Is that just the camera? Or does it just sound that way.
Also, any droning?

Re: Street IMAGE INSTALLS FUJI/Tanabe Y pipe and M

Thought so...makes sense after reading a lot more.
I was initially looking at Stillen, but if this exhaust sounds that good and doesn't drone, then I might have a new choice.
The only problem is that I might not be able to afford the ypipe and exhaust at once.
Guess I could do the exhaust then y-pipe later.

Thanks for all the help.

Re: Street IMAGE INSTALLS FUJI/Tanabe Y pipe and M

I love my borla/XERD test pipe combo, very deep but the drone does get to me when i have to go slow LOL, then it gets very annoying! I never drive my car in D so most of the time i dont notice it if im above 2k rpms or even 3, but when i have a girl in my car or parents i cant be driving like that, too loud haha!! Sounds good and looks good 2, i just dont love the single exhaust tip look, great exhaust anyway. Martin
