Hey fellas, i want to get a new exhaust catback system, but i dont want any of the noise of an aftermarket muffler. I had 1 on my last CL, and i like it better without the noise . I was wondering, maybe i could use a 2nd gen CL type S stock muffler on my 2.5in piping to get performance but without the loud sound . What do you guys think, can it be done and will it give me the desired effects?

 

Def could be done, I dunno about the inlet being 2.5" though.

BTW, you still buyin that bumper bra?

 

Heavens yes, especially after the fuckin rockchip i got on my hood this past sunday coming back to PSU from NY I think im gonna make it my christmas present to myself, hopefully soon. I'd buy it now but i gotta save up for some thanksgiving expenses.

And as for the muffler, i thought the Type S's came stock 2.5 or 2.25 piping? Eitehr way, i think id just get the shop to make it fit

 

I think it'll come out nice, and look nice. Otherwise, resonator and silencers will produce the same result on aftermarket muffs

 

i was thinking headers, highflow cat, resonator, 2.5 in piping, and type S muffler.

 

Thats what I was gonna say....

 

are the type S mufflers black with a chrome trim on the end or just plain black or just plain chrome? i never noticed. and whats the type S exhaust diameter?

 

 

Greddy SP2, not annoying and affordable. Greddy EVO2 is good too and just a little bit louder. honestly most of the cat-back systems out there sound the same, its just a matter of price.

 

put a old sock in the exhaust.

 

how about you just go custom.. duh.

Go with whatever size piping you want, 22'' resonator, the catco hi-flow cat, and a muffler of your choice.

bam.

make sure all important inlets / outlets match the size of the piping.

 

kumar you big joker you...no socks in my exhaust! But forreal..whats the diameter of the type S exhaust?

 

type S =2.5"

our car = 2.25"

 

i highly doubt stock piping for a TL or CL Type-S is 2.5". i doubt those guys are putting 3" exhausts on there cars when they upgrade.

and i think ours is like barely 2 inches??

 

2.x = 1.75"

3.0 = 2.25"

I think

 

but from the axleback the 3.0 is 1.75.

 

No wonder my car has no back pressure, I def need to get my piping run

 

so the type s 2.5 would be perfect! hmmm...now im plotting

 

yea but how you gonna manage the dual exhaust with the rear bumper. it would be cool if you could pull it off though.

 

sikemcl has dual cans on his car.

 

is his bumper stock??

 

i think infamous is just planning to use a cl-s muffler, not the whole catback or axleback. so hes not necessarily going to have dual exhaust. and sikemcl has a black widow kit IIRC.

good luck man
