Thumbs up Just had installed: Tanabe DP, Perrin Cat, Espelir Catback... Impressions

First Impressions:

Tanabe Downpipe: Perfect fitment. Really good quality. Clears tranny and doesnt contact anything. No complaints.

Perrin Cat: Nice fitment, really good quality, no regrets.

Espelir SS Exhaust: Very nice fitment, clean, angled N1 look. Nice quality full SS. Sound is deep and aggressive. A little on the louder side. Will need a little getting used to. Just wished the muffler could have sat a little lower. I might need to modify/change the hangers to do this? Overall great exhaust which looks/sounds sweet.

Video clip should be up soon...

Video clip...

Here is a video clip after some exhaust mods...

I've had the car for less than 2 months now, but not wasting any time modding up... Here's a little clip with Tanabe DP, Perrin Cat, and Espelir Catback installed just 2 days ago by Harman Motive.. really nice shop by the way with great service, and fair prices, I recommend them if you are in So Cal...

Here it is:

How does it sound?

Sounds great, How does it sound on the road? Can we possibly get a drive by?

Thank you.

I originally wanted the Espelir DP to match the Espelir catback but couldnt find one anywhere. The whole system came to about $1k. I made my own package, just thought those were the best parts.. If you go to lancershop.com you can find everything there too. I have purchased other parts from them before and they are good. If it is not available there, you can also use hopupracing.com.

No CEL issues at all with Perrin cat.

Yes this does sound like your Tanabe setup. I am VERY happy with the sound, not too loud, but loud enough for you to notice it. Probably one of the deepest exhaust for the EVO IMO.
