Okay, I couldn't find no info on this, all I've seen are prices, which are all extremely high. Can you justify getting this exhaust over say the 5zigen fireball for n/a applications, I know it's dual and the fireball is single, but it's like twice the price basically.

http://www.carparts.com/parts/newsearch2.asp?reflink=0-0-0-0-0&sourceid=2&parttypeid=3042&itemid=13 53&autoidsearch=YES

edit: just fixed the link. it's 'bout $800 installed for the exhaust though.

Actually, the picture they have in carparts.com is wrong. That's the Tanabe DTM exhaust which has only Honda applications. The one for the S14 is the Tanabe G-Power Medallion exhaust, which is one huge oval tip which looks really mean IMO. I love that exhaust, it looked pretty cool when I saw it on an S14. Here's a picture of it. *hopes it works*

that's why i couldn't find nething on that exhaust then cuz i saw the g-power medallion exhaust, but carparts didn't specify what type it was so i was lost. thanks for the pic though, it clears some stuff up. i kinda like the look of the dtm one they have pictured on carparts better though.

the DTM and G power models are both discontinued from tanabe.  all you have now are racing medallion and hyper, plus the super series.  at one point they were selling these exhaust "REALLY" cheap (dtm, g power), just to get rid of them.  

wezz
p.s have you checked out the BLITZ NURSPEC R? &nbsp;i would look into it <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'>

it's just a pipe to let exhaust out, not worth $800 for that to me. i was just seeing if there's something special behind that one. must all be in the name.

The exhaust could be called &quot;Blitz Ass-Can&quot; for all I care, just as long as it looks nice, doesn't sound like a CRX with a hole poked in it's exhaust buzzing my ears with an obnoxious wet-fart sound, I'll buy. it.
