Default Tanabe Medalion Concept G Blue TBE

I think I found the exhaust I want finally. I was going to go with APS but wanted something a little louder and with a bigger tip. I saw the video clip on the web site and it is exactly the sound I want. The Tanabe TBE isn't out yet, but I plan on getting it next month when it is.

how did it sound weird? i'm thinking it was done on a catless wrx, hence all the turbo noise. it's a bit raspy, but nothing hugely out of the norm

i'm very interested in this exhaust, does anyone else have any experience with it? it seems like it would make a lot of power being that it is full 80mm and catless.

It sounds like it has a major exhaust leak to me. Either that, or it is pretty much a straight exhaust.
