Axelbacks available

I Vtec, do you? · 01-29-2008, 02:45 AM

Other than the Tanabe axelback for sale, what else is available and where can it be purchased at? I saw a vid on youtube of a guy running the skunk2 muffler w/ stock piping so I was wondering where these and other axelbacks can be had.

hi, what is the big difference in power gain between axel-back and catback ? if I go with a turbo or a supercharger does I need a catback ?

Injen makes an axleback too but the Tanabe Concept G is far better looking and sounding. I have installed some Injen exhausts on other cars and I wasn't impressed with the quality or fitment.

I have a number of these axlebacks in stock for $300 shipped to the lower continental US. Gains should be about 4-5 HP.

Damn only the tanabe? No one has any vids of how it sounds except for one on youtube, but it's just a 20 second clip of a few revs and a drive around the cul-de-sac.

If you want a good sounding budget minded exhaust:

Robear Racing. MEGAN RACING AXLE-BACK EXHAUST: CIVIC SI 06-UP (2/4DR)

Great sound, and cost is cheaper than anything out there. I installed one about a week ago, looks sweet, and sound is subtle.

Thanks, I don't want anything too subtle though or else I'd just get the HFP axel-back. I want something deep/somewhat loud, but I'd like to get an axel back before buying an entire exhaust. Wish I could just hear what the tanabe sounds like

I wonder if you could make the tanabe concept G a full cat-back.

beauhance · 01-29-2008, 03:37 PM

there is also the 2 new spoon axlebacks, aj-racing has them

Sure you could. I wouldn't be surprised if you could just use the mid-pipes of another cat back and then just use the axel back portion of the tanabe. And you could always have a custom made one.

^^ I love this guy. Thanks man

As for the Mugen/Spoon, I'm only getting the axelback because I wanna save money while I decide if I get a full catback or not. $800 on an axelback isn't doing it for me :P

hondaspeed · 01-29-2008, 07:21 PM

Does anyone know the power gain with Megan Racing axle-back ?

I Vtec, do you? · 01-29-2008, 07:25 PM

Negligible. 2 whp at best I'm assuming since a full cat back makes 5 at best.

^^ Thanks a lot man, I really appreciate it. Definitely gonna go out and buy that. Hopefully I'm not disappointed!

ive got the tanabe axleback on mine as well, sounds much deeper in life than the vid
volume wise i say it compliments my intake perfectly. most of the time the intake is louder than the exhaust imo which i really like
