Tanabe exhausts are good. I like them and how they sound.

Watch that. Tell me if you think that's a nice sound.

Where in America are you travelling to? That might be an assistance in determining where to recommend you to shop. Someone might know of a local reputable shop if you're coming to their area.

With exhaust (like anything) you'll get mixed reviews and a TON of opinions.

Greddy SP2
Apexi WS2
Tanabe Hyper Medallion
Apexi Noir
Spoon N1
Apexi N1
RS*R Ex-Mag


Those are just a few that will be mentioned. Good luck with your search.

It's one of the most popular, best looking, quietest exhausts out there. I say go for it. I know a few will chime in to agree. South Carolina? There's several on here from that area.

One of the best exhausts out there IMO. A very quiet, yet deep, throaty sound.

However, you're going to spend ~$500 on the WS2, and even more on some of those other catbacks...I would recommend picking up a nice axleback or even just a muffler, then take that back home and have an exhaust shop fab up the rest of the piping for you. I just took my EG to a local muffler shop just the other day, and a complete custom catback exhaust with 2.5" piping, a resonator, and a Magnaflow muffler costs about $300. That's way cheaper than many catbacks and the sound, not to mention the hp/torque gains, are awesome

Wow, you are going to put an exhaust system into suitcases??
I guess you are going to cut up the exhaust and weld it back together, or do you have a super long suitcase?

Not all exhausts come in three sections....but have fun!

I shipped a 3" exhaust system, it was only in 2 sections and needed a box that was 60" long.
