Exhaust question. Need help

Ok I know there is 1.5 million threads about exhaust already thats the problem. So I will get to the root of the issue.

On July 24th I ordered a Tanabe Concept g blue turbo back for my IX 2006 from a vendor off this site. The day I ordered they claimed they had it. 2 days later I notice my order is still pending so I call them and ask whats the deal and they tell me that they though they were going to have the item to ship and they don't. No big deal really happens all the time. However they claim they are going to have the system Aug 2nd ready to ship. I wanted to confirm this so I call Tanabe to see if they can confirm this or if they could give me a vendor that has them in stock. No one that they knew had any. Tanabe wouldn't get into the details about the first company's account but he did tell me strait up NO ONE would be getting any systems for like 2 weeks.

I found another company that does have the pipe I wanted but cost 300 more than what I would be paying for the system though the first. Does anyone know of a solution to my problem? My goal is to buy and have a pipe shipped Full Turbo Back to Alaska for 900 dollars and be of quality equal to and above the Tanabe?

300 dollars more for that exhaust is not worth it

my solution: cancel order, get ur money back, contact Zeus on EvoM and get the Megan TBE system. Its under $600 shipped to your door, then u got over $300 left to spend on more mods!

Zeus has a really good rep here, and he won't promise something that he can't deliver. Def. worth contacting him.

ok now I am getting annoyed (not with Zeus)

The first place told me its going to be longer than they though with the Tanabe. I said can you come up with something better or equal to that give or take a few hundred... sure ill call you back....
Called another guy.... willing to spend up to 1000 please help me out.... I got what you need.... BACK ORDER

Is there someone out there that can get me a turbo back system of quality equal or greater than the Tanabe concept G blue for under 1000 shipped to 99703.

I dont want a loud *** pipe I like the quiet or deep sounds. I am willing to go catback system with a down pipe. unless someone has a better set up let me know. Megan sounds like a good deal but 2 people so far are out and the third wants alot more than Zeus so Fthat
