    Good choice on the exhaust. I was looking at them for my H22 hybrid.

    Quick question.......why go with the B16 and not the B18 w/ blower? Just curious wink

    The reason for the B16 instead of B18 is price smile

    Well, after having my Tanabe Racing Medallion full cat-back exhaust sitting in my room collecting dust for the past month and a half, I finally found some time to have it put on! Last night I took the exhaust to a local mechanic to cut off the bolts on the stock cat, which I thought were welded, (long story) and also help me put the exhaust on. Well, come to find out the bolts were not welded, but rusted REALLY bad. We get the nuts off the stock cat and he asks me if I want to go ahead and gut the stock cat, so of coarse I say YES! So, after we gut the stock cat and reinstall it we start putting the exhaust on. Install of the exhaust went perfect. The fitment of the Tanabe is amazing and the craftmanship is beautiful. We get all the pieces on and I fire it up, WOW! The exhaust sound is amazing with a nice deep tone. I love it biggrin AND get this: After I pull the car out of the shop I go to him and ask him how much I owe and he says: IT'S FREE!!! HOLY $HIT! My butt dyno says the car pulls a little stronger now with the new exhaust and the gutted stock cat. I give this exhaust two thumbs up. Now I can't wait to get the B16 in my car with a blower on it biggrin

    B16A1 or A2/A3? I found some of the A2/A3's more expensive than B18C1s...
