We don't have numbers for you guys yet, we're waiting on a local install for a chance to get them on the dyno!
The v2 Jpipe made gains up to 25hp/29tq on a 2007 TL Type-S, so we expect the numbers to be fairly consistent with that; around 20hp/25tq.
We'll share numbers when we know!

Nice. 
I'm eager to see dyno numbers for this application in the future.
Too bad it's not $100-200 cheaper or else I'd buy it right now.

Sorry guys, still no dyno numbers yet! We don't have a dyno in house, so it's hard to coordinate times for that along with an install.
If you have purchased an XLR8 Jpipe, and can get us dyno numbers (before and after Jpipe install) we'll hook you up with a $75 store credit!
PM me for more details if you're interested!

Be careful buying from these guys. Make sure you really want the product. I got slapped with a 25% restocking fee and had to pay for return shipping on an unopened box of lowering springs. Lost about $100. Nice people but charge excessive fees. Industry standard on restocking fees is 10%. Very risky to buy here. Will be taking my business elsewhere in the future. Just my 2 cents.

However, return shipping is always at the buyers expense unless stated otherwise, and the return policy is posted on the site here: https://store.excelerateperformance.com/return-policy so everyone, and anyone, can read it before making a purchase.
If there is anything you decide we can do for you feel free to reach out to me, and I'd be happy to see what we can do to help you out!
Sorry again!

This can be a difficult question to answer since we're not the ones supplying the warranty. You will lose the warranty on the j-pipe, however, we cannot state for sure what the dealer would do if an issue arose. It's up to them to prove the part you installed caused the problem. For example, if a suspension component were to break then Acura would have to prove the Jpipe was directly related to the issue before not carrying out the warranty.
The Magnusson-Moss Act is designed to make sure you get the most of your warranties in an event like this. It deals with the sellers commitment to correct problems when your product fails.
Hope that helps you a bit!

Have you guys [XLR8] considered sending a Jpipe to a forum member in exchange for doing a review with dynos? That seems like the normal way to drum up business these days, accross quite a few different industries. I don't know anybody with a dyno, so I'm not proposing to do it myself, but maybe somebody would - I would really like to see the results, tested by a third party.

Has anyone ever done an emission test with a HFPC/Jpipe installed where the emissions tech even noticed that the third cat was deleted? You would think that as long as the car hasn’t thrown any codes and the plug in OBD2 port doesn’t see any engine codes then it would pass with flying colors right?

The Jpipe replaces one unmonitored section of pipe with another, so it won't require any tuning to run. This makes the install process easily reversible!

2018 TLX Aspec
Has anyone got this covered yet? Looking to add the JPIPE & probably the high flow pre cats. Haven’t pulled the trigger due to not much feedback. I wouldn’t mind being a guinea pig haha but nothing has been released showing these fit the 2018 models. I’m sure nothing has changed but not worth the risk of finding out while under the car already lol.

I had the HFPC and JPipe swapped onto a 18 Aspec AWD and it was exactly the same as my old 15 AWD so I can probably assume the front wheel dive version would be the same too.

The FWD Jpipe will not work with the AWD cars. If you have an AWD car you will need the AWD Jpipe,
You can find them on our website here: https://xlr8performance.com/i-37313-...earch%3DSearch
Feel free to send me a PM if you have any questions!

I have an AEM cold air intake on my 2016 TLX v6 and had a connecting rod bearing let go. They initially blamed it on the intake and said the filter was wet. They had to fully investigate the problem and was a huge pain in the ass. The mechanics at the dealers aren't trained in doing these investigations so they rely on Honda's technical advisers. Normally the service adviser at the dealership would approve the warranty repair. The dealership would send pictures, oil change receipts, and any service records as well as follow the directions of the technical adviser. This added to the length of the process because it sometimes took a day for them to respond then get my car back into the shop to do the next step in their investigation. As long as you have all your maintenance up to date for the warranty and are prepared to wait to let them do their investigation go for it. I'd say with exhaust parts there is probably little to worry about in my opinion other then the fact that you loose the warranty on the part you tamper with. After the repair I did decide to take the risk of putting the intake back on and has been fine ever since.

i did not buy their jpipe because of the hassle of looming inspections and constant threat of stick gases. I just went with their HFPCS and bought a jpipe from ATLP
