CT( Comptech) Exp Installed Pictures
Finally after 6 week I received my exhaust yesterday.Installed Today..Exhaust is a piece of art.Every weld correctly done. Installation took 2 hours $100( daam Bolts were rusted ).
Box weight 60 pound ( packed carefully)
After the exhaust was installed car was running like crap.( Battery Disconnected). don't know how long the computer will take to re learn itself.
Will be posting a video soon..

Make a hole, coming thru!
You might update the thread description with "NSFW" ... on account of at least one of your garage beauties.
No I didn't get in trouble. But I just smiled and someone wondered why....

Is your car a 5AT of 6MT? How does it sound compared to stock? Do you have an intake, hondata, and/or headers also?
I want to do the I/hondata/H/E this spring. I'm going to stick with Comptech for the Intake/exhaust. Just wasn't sure about what type of headers. I keep hearing about Comptech 5AT header rattle at idle (or maybe it was the exhaust that was rattling or both together).

So car sound like a beast bit loud .... wifey absolutely hates it hopefully Ct quite inserts will do the trick.
My friend had Dc headers in his car.all i know is from the initial install it had a leak..

You could almost hang the pieces on the wall like modern art. It is almost a shame to put it under your car out of sight.

I personally think that the CT exhaust sounds wayyy too ricey. I'm sure it'll sound ALOT different if you put a supercharger on there lol
Also, how old is the car? Your stock exhaust is rusted to hell!

Late to the party, but congrats on the mod. CT-E make fantastic parts. I got my CT-E header from Lynwood Acura back in June, they have great service out there.
I was a bit surprised when you said that the car was "running like crap" when you started it back up; just disconnecting the battery shouldn't really cause that.
I assume it's all good now, though? How do you like it after a week?

I had a buddy MIG it back on for me, but it was pretty rough since there was plenty of surface rust. DEFINITELY not an ideal connection given its placement along the pipe. I would've preferred a 2 bolt flange.

I put a 2 bolt flange on mine, but the welder i went to got the angle wrong so I have a b-pipe that's 5 degrees too far to the right. I'm lucky the car is in storage with no tags and registration, otherwise i'd have to put the stock system back on.
Are your flanges stainless? When comptech made the systems, they weren't, because mine are mild steel.
