you might as well keep the stock exhaust if you're thinking of going with Fujitsubo. $1000 for 1 more decibel of sound throughout the rev band is a waste of money IMO.

i really need to here one of these in person in socal to get me sold, anyone?
Should have come out to our meet last night. I have one and two other people that were there had the duals and then I believe there were also two other people with the single version of this exhaust. I agree with a lot of people, just a polished tip would be a nice option, but the burnt tip has definitely grown on me and is definitely the nicest looking coloration of any of the burnt tips that I've seen, imo.
I thought s2kologist was the only one that had the Greddy tip, I was jealous but now that I see other people have it as well I'm not. That and I'm pretty sure they Greddy one doesn't have the fancy design on it like the GoTuning tip. Only noticed it when we took a picture of it with a polarized lens.

UPDATE (2/13/2010):
If you have aftermarket Engine and/or Transmission mounts, you will not hear this exhaust at all in the cabin. I've had Innovative Engine Mounts (75A Durameter) installed PRIOR the GReddy SE install and the car sounded the same as before after some heavy driving today.
Just shows you how quiet this exhaust this, but sounds great when you're outside the car.

I like the sound of that, there is a bit of drone around the 3k rpm range that I'd like to be gone.

So to clarify, this exhaust is quieter than the T1R EM Sparrow?
I know most people consider the T1R to have "almost no drone" but I found that it droned quite loudly on deceleration from higher rpms, which bugs me. Does the Greddy SE do that at all or does it drone at all? How much quieter is it than the T1R??

Wanted that clean and classy look and the SE accomplishes that with ease. Looks like the exhaust was made for the ap2 rear bumper.
