Advantex is a highly advanced muffler packing material that greatly excels over other packing material types such as loose packed fiberglass mats and composite cube types. Advantex internal packing material allows the muffler to reduce sound more, with less material, while maintaining extremely high flow characteristics. Click here for a detailed overview of Advantex material for exhaust systems.

A special signature of the CONCEPT G BLUE is it's flame treated, full inconel tip. Inconel is a rare alloy that has excellent properties for anti-corrosiveness, and it's ability to withstand extreme temperatures (1600F). The tip is slash cut and also features the 'Medalion' logo in laser etched print.

While the catalytic converters are removed to maximize the flow, we retain all factory O2 sensors and placement.

Tanabe was one of the first Japanese aftermarket companies to create full SUS304 stainless steel exhaust systems many years ago. The highest grade SUS304 stainless is used on all systems for maximum durability, as well as lightweightedness. Our experience in developing SUS304 systems has allowed us to reach a high level of craftsmanship in this field.

Since CONCEPT G BLUE is a turbo-back exhaust system, we took special consideration during the construction of it's components. Since exhaust gasses from turbocharged vehicles are very hot, the downpipe and cat-delete portions of the system have rugged 1.5mm thick piping, whereas the cooler rear catback secion uses our specialized 1.2mm thick piping for weight reduction.

Because every bit of weight savings is beneficial, exhaust hangars have hollow construction to reduce weight.
|
|
Further weight reduction is acheived and utilizes through the use of pressed SUS304 exhaust flanges on portions of the exhaust system.

Minimizing bends is a goal of each custom built Tanabe exhaust system. The truest form is realized to minimize restrictions and maximize useable power gains. Where necessary, the piping is mandrel bent for improved exhaust flow characteristics.
|
|
The Concept G Blue is one of our most powerful exhaust system creations. Because it is a zero restriction model, the system is louder than our other under 95db and under 93db systems. For this reason, we include a removeable silencer which can reduce overall sound output and db levels.

Tanabe is the first and only Japanese exhaust manufacturer with a dedicated USA division to have the ISO9001 quality manufacturing certificate . Because of the extreme difficulty to obtain this certification, those who have the Tanabe exhaust system drive knowing they have one of the highest quality, most thoroughly developed systems in the world. Fitment and function are always flawless, and each exhaust is fully supported by the Tanabe USA staff for tech and warranty. Click here to read more about ISO9001.
