Has anyone changed out there muffler?

Looking to make my MDX sound a tad sportier. Wondering if you have any suggestions or if you have changed out your stock mufflers for an aftermarket.

Please post...no haters.

nah, haven't ever recorded anything. maybe when i get my iphone 3gs, i can actually record video.. hahaha.

it sounds almost exactaly like the infinity fx45. if you're looking for a cheap, big sound change, consider putting in a short ram intake. i did that too... my mdx turns heads like you wouldnt believe.

IMHO sounds like a 4 cylinder honda civic. a little raspy. Nonetheless, thank you for finding and posting the clip.

I was thinking about doing this too. Issue is one of the mufflers is part of the bpipe on the MDX so they would have to be welded on for sure.

i was curious if the 06 base tl mufflers would fit on an 02 mdx? I have them from off my car since i put on atlp quads and got a set of 07 type s mufflers in case i ever get rid of the atlp which i doubt i would.. i dont see y they wouldnt fit, just have them welded in, but had anyone done b4? b real neat to stick some atlp mufflers on it!

if you want to put 2 exhausts on an MDX, you have to take out the spare tire... just something you want to keep in mind. i don't have the spare on my car right now.
