Arospeed muffler?

What do you guys think of this muffler on a 2.2cl? I think that it might look pretty good, oh and it will probably sound nice also. Does anyone have this ont heir cl? Let me know what your oppinions are, good or bad. Thanks in advance.

I have Arospeed's DTM-style muffler on my 2.3 and it sounds and looks great. I say go for it.

I know this may be a stupid question, b8t do you have a sound or video clip? How about some pictures, well thanks for the input, and ideas on how much this will cost me, with custom piping?

i've heard they are kinda loud... but most universal mufflers are. Hey, I kinda wish I got the Apexi dunk instead of the WS, its almost too quiet... most people dont know I have an exhaust untill I tell them... so maybe loud is good in your eyes (or ears).

I do like the style, a tad large... but people will definatly see that you have a muffler!!

Are you planning on full cat-back custom pipe, or just axle back?? Axle back would probably be like $50 for the bent pipe and mounting... maybe an extra $75 or so for the rest of the pipe... as long as you go to a "local" guy and not midas or something... they (midas, etc.) usually wont even use "customer parts" and if they do they charge mucho dinero for it.

I have something similar to what you're looking at (dual canister). The resonance is pretty loud, but it looks great!

BTW: I got it for approx $200 (including new axle-back piping).

Oh yeah... I have an old Bosal muffler laying around... I had it on my CL for a while, but it was a little loud for me inside the car. If anyone wants it just pass me a few bucks for the shipping. the tips are in good shape, and round (no dents from curbs or anything) it could just use a little cleaning. Its a single chamber muffler... a rather small one... probably better suited for a 4 cyl.

dustbuster, what kind of muffler is that? Oh and did you feel any gain out of the setup? Is it axle bak or cat-back, last question, how much gain do you think? Thanks in advance

i think it would look great. if you are interested in that muffler, we carry arospeed and can beat that price. $130 for the muffler and $15 shipping. total to the door is $145. thanks!

rmstocio, I will definitely buy from you for that price, but at the moment I am still trying to decide. I have been told that this muffler doesn't sound nice and that it won't be able to be seen on my cl unless I cut a piece of the bumper out. Right now the poll is pretty even, more input would be great. Thanks in advance for the help.
