issey.miyake gained 15 hp peak power over stock with Motordyne.

As for sound, E370 with ART pipes is semi quiet at low RPMs, and simply roars after 4K RPM. Sounds really aggressive.

I wouldn't look at the gains when the differences are negligable. Look at what sound your looking for. I gained 30hp, but I had LTH's as well. The Motordyne exhaust sounds amazing, but may sound different with any other exhaust mods. I have Tanabe and love it.

i got tanabe. i love the thing! its not exactly "loud" i dont think,compared to alot of cat-backs. however i get random compliments from strangers when i start it up,or go flying by ppl give a thumbs up etc.

i do believe that the motordyne is louder for sure (i havent heard in person) however the motordyne is in my opinion the best looking exhaust right now.

also you could get tanabe,and then always upgrade from there to achieve the desired sound. y-pipe,cats,etc

as for gains,i dunno what i gained,i got it for the sound
