If your employer subjected you to that much noise you'd be wearing double hearing protection and required to take an annual hearing test. This much noise is not legal in many jurisdictions. Don't be That Guy.

This is not just my experience. My buddy installed his a week after I did and it came off in less than a month too. We are both running Tanabe Medalion Touring dual exhausts. 94dBA.

Hear this exhaust on a car identical to yours. Not just a trip around block. The drone between 3000 and 4000 will make your ears bleed. (Exaggeration but not much.)

I knew you would chime in. When I was shopping for exhausts, your post showed up everywhere. I ended up with the Tanabe with no regrets (also considered the Fujitsubo and HKS).

To just answer the OP, you can either shop the user marketplace here or the sponsor suspension deals section. I got mine from Moddiction since they had the best price at the time.

The Q300 has to be the most loved/hated s2000 exhaust available!

I did my exhaust shopping when working the track at a couple of Autox's. I personally think the Q300 sounds great, but it's 100% subjective.

Another thing to consider is there are differing versions of it (slight changes over the years), so maybe that has something to do with the various opinions.

Weren't there several versions of the Q300? I was under the impression that there were, correct me if I am wrong.

I had the Q300 V4 for a while, didn't think it was loud at all. Just don't pair a test pipe with it...!

I've seen references to different versions of the Q300. The box mine came in had nothing on it to show it was V4 or anything else so I don't know how we'd tell. There are different exhaust tips. Rolled and straight tubing. Some are straight tubes are tinted blue for some reason I don't understand.

The Q300 remains very popular. New and used.
