Look What I Just Installed...

I just got my cat-back Greddy Evo exhaust yesterday & did the install today. IMO, this exhaust sounds the better than any other exhaust made for the CL-S. Greddy's sound quality is much better than Comptech or HKS (I know because I've had both).

I took it out for a ride after the install & it is almost as quiet as stock at cruising speeds (no droning at all on the highway). However, when you punch it the car sounds very deep & aggressive. I would recommend the Greddy Evo exhaust to anyone considering a cat-back.

It appears that the Greddy cat-back system incorporates two resonators??

Yes it does & I think that's the reason there is no droning.

mattg: I knew I would like them too, but I did not want to spend the money. Now I'm glad that I did.

mantis23: Thanks for the compliment.

liquid_x: I don't have any vids or sound clips yet, but I plan on posting a vid soon so everyone can hear how good they sound.

I'm sure someone here can host them for you. Post a thread and ask...that will save me the trouble of making a video.

Looks great! I like the way the Greddy tips fill the exhaust cutouts. It should come like that from the factory.

Thanks, retail is about $800-$850...I paid $670 shipped. The install was very easy & took about 1 hour from start to finish. Greddy did a great job on their R&D, everything bolted up like the stock exhaust.

I appreciate your honesty. I just think the Comptech tips are too small. Also I prefer a single wall tip as opposed to the rolled tip of Comptech. The rolled tip is a bitch to keep clean.

Lookin good.

They may be a bit to large for my tastes but they still manage to fit and look sweet. Best of luck with them.

$670 for the whole cat-back? that's a hellava deal compared to just comptech mufflers for $600. Though i also like the rolled lip on the comptech tips.

It's not easy to find it for that price...I got lucky. Most people would expect to pay about ~$800. Even at $800 it is still much less than the Comptech B-Pipe & Exhaust combo. I feel it is worth every penny.
