me i don't care really. hence my FI straight pipe. but i did have it made to swap in and out the carbon fiber mufflers whenever i want.
The AAM axle back that I'm going for is the mufflered s-line version, NOT the short tails (link below of what Im referring to). The short tails are way too loud, believe me I ran a pair for about a month.

im weird i guess i just wouldn't want a pieced together 3 brand exhaust.

also i'm a big fan of true dual exhaust set up for better flow and power.

That does sound awesome, just too loud unfortunately. I also see your concern, but it's kinda the only route I can go without selling off my XYZ pipe and going with a full AAM midpipe + s-line axle back set up or my original plan of the Tanabe exhaust.

I really like the ability to switch between straight pipe, resonator, and HFC with the XYZ pipe as well and the Tanabe exhaust fits my volume requirements quite well. But IMO it is overpriced being that it's only a y-pipe back exhaust, so that was the reasoning to start this thread. Just seeing if anybody else had any ideas or opinions on stuff before I sink ~$1,200 into the Tanabe.

so are you planning to use your XYZ with AAM stuff? doesn't that XYZ run dual into a single 3"? how do you figure to hook up any AAM products when they are duals and 2.5"?

maybe i miss read and you want to drop the XYZ.

Yeah, the XYZ won't work with the AAM midpipe. So ill have to decide on which one I go with, not both. For the hassle of selling the XYZ and more than likely taking a hit on it I'll probably just hold out for the Tanabe. I just wanted to see if anybody had ventured into the territory I was contemplating.

technically..............i know a way you can go with AAM and keep your XYZ

i don't think it's offered yet but it does exist. AAM has a in development single exit exhaust. would probably work with your XYZ single point connection but i didn't actually all the way under a friends car to see how that part joined up. mostly checked out the rear section and the back of the mid pipe.

That would be amazing! Do you have any contacts at AAM or maybe your friend does? I would definitely be interested in getting more info on that.
