Exhaust Installed VRRRRRROOOOM

Ofcourse, at Park Avenue Acura

Ofcourse, Jens installed it

Ofcourse, It sounds bad-ass

I recommend these babies to everyone. I purposefully took the back roads. Around 2000RPM they sound like a mustang, they quiet out at higher rpm's that's when my CAI takes over the noise factor. This is how a CLS should sound, and thank god no more Pontiac GTP-ish Exhaust. The chrome tips stick out and look MEAN.

What did they charge you to install them? Why not do it yourself, it's only 4 bolts.

Cost of Comptech Mufflers : $632.00
Cost of Jens putting them on: $50.00
Knowing your car is being worked on by Acura Fanatics...... PRICELESS

West Coast be very envious we have Park Ave!

I prefer they do it, honestly, 4 bolts or not, I am not big into part swapping, I like having the pro's do it.

Sounds like a good enough reason for me, not that it's any of my business... Love the sound.

Maybe we'll have to test out TL vs CL some day. Just for fun. Meet you on the Turnpike at 6:00pm, exit 11. Better pack a lunch

Hey NSXNext- haven't you heard about Jens' top secret Muffler hanger tuning that adds all that extra power to the mufflers?

We don't have AIM anymore SaabMan but now we have a way to talk during the day! Saabman wants to boost up his Saab but he can't read the sweedish instructions. Jeesh, you call Saab vehicle assistance and you swear the Swedish Chef from the Muppets in on the other side CINNA MUN A MUN A MUN!

Actually, I tried reading the manual on the different mod options, but it seemed to keep referencing Ikea. I don't think a futon with matching night stand would add to the value of the car. Might be comfortable though.

Eclipse,

Does it sound as good as the TL-S w/headers we heard the other week or is there a difference?

Basically, I’m asking if the headers add to the sound or not.
