Revel

Japanese Performance Heritage Since 1982

Revel represents the evolution of Tanabe USA, a legendary Japanese manufacturer with over 30 years of expertise in developing precision-engineered performance parts. Established by Tanabe Racing Development in their ISO9001 and JISQ9001-certified facility in Shiga-city, Osaka-prefecture, Japan, Revel continues the tradition of producing exhaust systems that perfectly balance performance, quality, and refined sound characteristics. Known throughout Japan as the number one choice for enthusiasts, Revel has earned the nickname "The Gentleman's Exhaust" for its ability to deliver measurable power gains without excessive noise.

The Medallion Touring-S Series

At the heart of Revel's lineup sits the acclaimed Medallion Touring-S exhaust system, engineered for daily drivers who demand both performance and civility. These systems are constructed from full SUS304 stainless steel with 1.5mm wall thickness piping—thicker than many competitors for increased strength and reduced unwanted resonation. Every system features mandrel-bent piping to maintain consistent diameter throughout all bends, optimizing exhaust flow characteristics and preventing restriction.

The Touring-S systems are rigorously tested to remain under 93dB sound levels under load, delivering that signature clean, deep, low tone that remains pleasant and aggressive across all RPM ranges. This makes them ideal for enthusiasts who use their vehicles daily and want a sporty sound without drowning out conversations or attracting unwanted attention.

Honda & Acura Applications

Revel offers extensive coverage for Honda enthusiasts. The legendary Honda S2000 (2000-2009) benefits from precisely engineered cat-back systems that complement the F20C and F22C engines' high-revving nature. Honda Civic owners across multiple generations have options, including 1988-1991 CRX, 1992-1995 Civic Coupe/Sedan, 1996-2000 Civic Hatchback, and modern FK8 Civic Type R applications with valvetronic control.

Integra owners can select from systems designed for 1994-1999 GSR Coupes and 2000-2001 GSR models. The 2011-2015 Honda CR-Z hybrid also has dedicated axle-back options. Each system is designed as a direct factory replacement requiring no modifications.

Subaru Performance Systems

Revel provides comprehensive exhaust solutions for the Subaru performance community. The 2015-2021 WRX and STI VA chassis have multiple configurations available, including the Medallion Touring-S cat-back and various axle-back setups. For the 2022+ WRX VB platform, Revel offers newly developed systems engineered specifically for the FA24 turbocharged engine.

Subaru BRZ and Toyota GR86 owners (both 2013-2021 ZN6/ZC6 and 2022+ ZN8/ZD8 generations) can choose from single-exit and dual-exit configurations. The flagship Medallion Ultra Ti full titanium cat-back system weighs just 17.9 pounds for the WRX/STI sedan—an incredible weight savings over the factory system while maintaining structural integrity through fully TIG-welded construction with high-quality pie-cut bends.

Toyota & Lexus Coverage

Beyond traditional sport compact applications, Revel has expanded into Toyota's truck and SUV lineup with the innovative Medallion Trail Hart series. This specialized line adapts the proven Touring-S engineering for off-road and street truck applications, including 2016-2024 Toyota Tacoma, 2003-2025 Toyota 4Runner, 2022+ Toyota Tundra, and 2024+ Toyota Sequoia.

For performance enthusiasts, Revel offers systems for the 1987-1992 Toyota Supra Turbo and modern A90 GR Supra. The Lexus RC350 F-Sport, IS500, and RC-F (2015-2023) also have dedicated axle-back options available.

Medallion Trail Hart: Purpose-Built for Adventure

The Trail Hart series represents Revel's commitment to serving the overlanding and off-road community. These systems utilize the same premium SUS304 stainless steel construction and mandrel-bent piping as the Touring-S, but with truck-specific design considerations. The optional Turn Down Pipe (sold separately) provides a shorter exhaust exit for maximum departure angle clearance when tackling technical terrain—a critical feature that elevates ground clearance by tucking the exhaust termination point higher into the vehicle's underbody.

Trail Hart systems maintain the refined deep growl that Revel is known for, perfect for long highway drives to remote destinations without creating fatiguing cabin drone. The systems are direct bolt-on replacements using original hanger positions, with all necessary mounting hardware included.

Advanced Materials & Construction

Every Revel exhaust system features fully hand TIG-welded construction using laser-cut flanges that provide stronger, more durable connections than stamped alternatives. The dual-wall angle-cut tips incorporate a large inner diameter for modern aesthetics and increased exit flow, while the dual-wall construction helps reduce exhaust resonation.

Inside the mufflers, Revel employs Advantex packing material—a highly advanced solution that significantly outperforms loosely-packed fiberglass and composite cube-type materials. Advantex offers superior flow characteristics while providing excellent sound suppression, with heat resistance up to 1,200°F to extend the functional life of the exhaust system.

Lightweight Performance Engineering

Revel's straight-through muffler design provides better flow for increased power while allowing for lighter-weight construction compared to chambered designs. Compact muffler canisters offer optimal ground clearance for lowered vehicles—a crucial consideration for the stance and performance community. The slim-line oval canister design is both aesthetically pleasing and functional, eliminating the need for bulky multi-chamber mufflers.

The Medallion Ultra Ti titanium systems take weight reduction to the extreme, using aerospace-grade titanium throughout the entire exhaust path. These full-titanium systems feature a clean matte finish with burnt tips and represent the pinnacle of Revel's lightweight performance philosophy—perfect for track-focused builds where every pound matters.

Medallion Street Plus Value Series

For budget-conscious enthusiasts, Revel offers the Medallion Street Plus line—high-quality exhaust systems at competitive price points. While featuring slightly simplified construction compared to the Touring-S, Street Plus systems still utilize stainless steel materials and provide noticeable performance gains with an enhanced exhaust note. These systems deliver excellent value for daily drivers and first-time upgraders.

Direct Factory Fitment

All Revel exhaust systems are engineered as direct bolt-on replacements requiring no cutting, welding, or modifications. Systems include all necessary gaskets, hardware, and detailed installation instructions. The precise engineering and quality control from Tanabe's Japanese manufacturing facility ensures perfect fitment using original mounting locations, eliminating the frustration of universal-fit systems that require custom fabrication.

The Revel Difference

What sets Revel apart is the meticulous attention to detail inherited from decades of Tanabe Racing Development experience. Every exhaust system undergoes extensive research and development, with prototypes track-tested to validate performance claims. Only products that meet Tanabe's stringent quality standards earn the Revel nameplate. This commitment to excellence has made Revel a trusted choice for enthusiasts who refuse to compromise on quality, performance potential, or long-lasting durability.
