want my tanabe exhaust louder, x-pipe or h-pipe?
hoping someone can help me out here before i throw anymore money into my car. i just got this exhaust put on and got a few hundred miles on it. it did get noticeably louder than when i put it on but its still not good enough for me.
im not looking for something really loud so hfc is not an option for me, plus i dont feel like spending 500 bucks on top of the 600 for the exhaust. i would have just went with the FI exhaust instead but even that i think its still a little too loud for my taste lol.
i want something a tad louder than the tanabe itself right now and im hoping a x-pipe or h-pipe would do the trick, what u guys think?
ive been searching through this forum and found a few that might work.
magnaflow 11385
magnaflow 10790
or should i just call up some local muffer shop and have them make an h-pipe like a member here did. thanx in advance!

how much louder are we talking about? is it as loud as an hfc? some people got the x/h-pipe done and it didnt seem too much louder.
when my had my coupe i love the sound, i wish our sedan came stock like that.
if the FI exhaust was cheaper i would have purchase it but i cant justify myself spend over 1g for an exhaust that i only want to a little bit more sound to it. i did alot of searching on this forum and quite a few people purchase the tanabe and they love it cause its not too loud so i went with that instead.
right now i have 200 to spend so either x or h-pipe would be good, any suggestion?

the amount u guys spent why not go with the F1 catback exhaust? this setup provide more gain? just wondering lol
update on the exhaust, i have roughly about 500 miles on it now and its getting a little louder which is good. i think im going to wait for another 500 miles before i make my decision. most likely though i would go with the magnaflow 11385 if it doesnt get any louder.

Pic of tanabe? I assume it's a dual. If you want it louder, the resonated X probably don't do it unless you are willing to cut out the resonators (if they have any).
I'd do the H, as it would be the cheapest to try. But it does have some noise cancellation properties so who knows?
Not sure why you think the resonated X will net you more sound. It's design is for noise reduction. The Z guys use it to reduce rasp on their non-cross piped dual systems.

Well my total cost for my exhaust was around 1200 and that is including the HFCs. I did it this way because it was cheaper, plus it was kinad fun designing the exhaust lol. I cut out my resonators and got a resonated X so my exhaust got louder. I love the noise it makes now, sometimes i wish it was louder, I hardly drive with the radio on! Oh and i hate rasp which the HFCs added so i wanted to resonate my X.

the reason why i chose the magnaflow x-pipe cause some on here are using it and its yield some audible gain for them. isnt the resonated x-pipe replacing the stock resonators?
heres some pics of the tanabe, also posted a clip of the exhaust in action.
but for some reason the clip sounds pretty loud but in person its not really that loud. i even confirm it with 2 of my buddies tonight, 1 drove my car and the other 1 stood next to me listen to it while he cruise by. we both agree it didnt sound much louder than stock.
dont get wrong, u can def tell theres an exhaust there but its just not as loud as we expect it to be.
