Tanabe concept G blue TBE ?

Ok i am interested in that set up, i just want to know if anyone here has it on his/her car.....my main concern is how loud is it? If i get this system i am probably going to swap the tanabe test pipe with a resonated test pipe to keep the sound to a reasonable level. http://www.tanabe-usa.com/exhausts/conceptgblue.asp

So any feedback are welcome

thanks

This is their new exhaust they are coming out with this year (if already not out). Supposedly they have some sort of new packing material to keep the noise down. I am looking for feedback as well to any new owners out there.

ok here are the scans. the images are 1280x1750 ish so that the numbers are legible. even at this size they're still a little blurry. they're basically listed lowest to highest HP

so $1K for a cat back, test pipe, and down pipe? all 80mm (3in)? seems pretty reasonable... think I might just scoop this too. Any vendors on here have any additional info?
