I have a real apexi N1 and dont really want to put it on my car after i went turbo but i might have too since i dont have the stock turbo exhaust. 88mkiiisupra wants to buy my exhaust and headers????

Touring Medallion replaced the Hyper so far as I can remember, and I think they look about the same but the new one is even quieter...

Both of the Tanabe look very similar. I am running the new version on my car and it is QUIET! When I am at idle you cannot hear it run, It has been selling really well in Virginia especially. The only problem is they are on backorder right now but should be available mid December

It's Not Important Bro
X2 - what Jack said

touring Medallion is extremely nice. High Quality and purs like a kitten. At WOT, it growls a little, otherwise, it is hardly louder than stock.

If you decide to get the Tanabe, Jack is a straight-up good vendor to do business with. I vouch from personal experience.

if it is tucked up under the car properly and not hanging like a saggy testicle, it isn't that noticeable.

yeah, thats close to mine...I picked up some smaller exhaust donuts so mine sits a tad higher. I've seen a few cars with a pretty large gap between the muffler and bumper and it looks terrible.
