Tanabe Medalion Concept G Exhaust! - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

kkkirbyyy · 06-06-2013, 07:30 PM

What's up guys. I got my car back today from Tanabe USA with their prototype Medalion Concept G Exhaust. It is a single exit exhaust. I personally love the sound, as it gives off a deep tone without rasp, and the noise level is perfect (for me at least). I know it has only been a few hours but I love it and if you guys are looking for an exhaust in the future, consider this one! After the dyno, they told me it was about a 5.5 HP gain on the wheels. Anyways, here is a video of the exhaust on the dyno.

I am telling you now, this video does not do it justice! You must hear it in person. I rep the SoCal Valley 86 group, so I am there every Wednesday at the meet. Just incase you want to hear the exhaust :]

As far as availability, they said production should be within 3-4 months. But if you cannot wait, check out their Medalion Touring Exhaust.

Big shout out to Tanabe USA for giving me this opportunity, and to those who helped me get there (you know who you are lol)

Can you get some rear pictures? I've seen single exits but they either dont fill the gap enough or are way too angled.

Sweet! Hope it isn't too expensive

Any specs on weight?

timerbob · 06-28-2013, 01:20 PM

I saw somewhere that they've released it.

They mentioned it, but I failed to pay attention when I picked up the car lol. I will ask once I give them a call this week or next. Definitely over 10lbs less, I suppose.

It is true, I haven't spoke to them, but they have it listed on their website. Its honestly, one of the best sounding exhaust if you are looking for deep tone at mid rpms without excessive noise and drone.

Tansey86 · 07-16-2013, 06:45 PM

Anyone know if 3" will be available?

kkkirbyyy · 07-16-2013, 06:56 PM

Not sure, but this exhaust is definitely one of the underrated ones in the market for the price tag
