Exclamation alphawerks catback

Has anybody purchased a alphawerks catback system. Its stainless, Mandrel bent, and about 400$. Also Im currently molding a huge bumper to my 01 CL and I was wondering if someone could tell me which bolt up exhaust(neuspeed,ct,greedy,HKS) sticks out the most? Oh yeah whats the difference between the type S and non type S aftermarket systems?

I believe the AW exhaust will come up short on the CL/TL because it is made for the Accord V6 98-02.

How short? Could we put some kind of extender on the pipe to make it longer?

Angry

i have the greddy evo II's and they would look sick with the settup that you are putting together, they hang a bit lower than the stock exhaust and the tips are longer than ct and about the same legnth as hks, it will be hard to find a neuspeed for your car as they discontinued that model (bastards!!!!!!!)

I would imagine that it would take a bit of custom fabbing by a muffler shop. They would probably charge an extra $50-100 for extending the pipe and getting the mufflers to line up perfectly.

Can anyone who has heard both dragger and EVO II PLEASE. PLEASE tell me which sounds more like a V-8 and less like a 4 cylinder? I'm about 2 days from ordering the greddy and I don't want to get it and Be 2nd guessing myself.

The HKS without resonator indeed is very deep, and pretty loud. I don't think it's possible to get a V8 sound though, (if you're referring to the guttural V8 sound of a mustang GT)
