Check out the site, its rated for under 93db.
If its anything like the tanabe on my supra it will be quiet.
Plus if you watch the video in the OP and compare it to other exhaust clips on youtube you can tell the sound is being muffled a lot more.

I think this exhaust sounds AMAZING but i really want to keep the dual exit.
Ditto.. if it's anything like my G Medallion on my old lawnmower EG, it'll be quiet. I went through maybe half a dozen different exhausts on my EG in the 90s, before settling on the Tanabe.. never changed exh again on that car and I was content.. it was high quality build and materials, a nice double walled tip, very quiet, a nice mild sound.

I'm the same way. I have gone through a few exhausts and have yet to find the perfect one. I hate loud.

Keep in mind that car has a tanabe 60mm front pipe installed.

The concept G video in the OP is just the catback.

I want a single, I have always liked Tanabe stuff, hopefully we will get some more video/audio. I kind of want this.

I've been running the Concept G for a few months now and love it. As stated above it is rated under 93db so it's a suitable DD setup (perfect for the street). I like how it has a deep note to it and is not annoying on my freeway commutes. I also like how it's lightweight at 22lbs. Quality is on point as expected from Tanabe products. I was thinking of picking up the matching front pipe but will be passing on it.

Also, don't forget to pick up an exhaust hole cover. The one I bought from @FT-86 SpeedFactory fits perfectly!

Im interested in this exhaust, but worried that once it's paired with an UEL and over pipe it'll be too loud. Really hoping someone will post some sound clips.

If you get a catted header it will be fine I'm sure.
