Mugen coilovers and mufflers

Does anyone have the Mugen coilovers or mufflers on their CL? The coilovers cost $1450 and lower about 3/4" but are not adjustable. The mufflers are silent and cost $1300. There are some pics here:

1300 for two mufflers!?!?!? youch that is kinda high don't you think?If you want fully adjustable coilovers try TEIN HKS OR Apex'i or APEX from Europe.I have APEX in my Civic and had good results they are height adjustable and compression/rebound damping adjustable.They cost thirteen hundred.As far as the mufflers go do the Comptech and save the balance of the cash for some headers which really make a difference.Jens

I wasn't really thinking about buying the Mugen coilovers or mufflers. I was just wondering if anyone had them. They are way too expensive for my taste. I'm thinking about getting the Comptech springs, sways, and headers installed at your dealership, Jens.

Oh ok sorry about that I thought you were considering these items.So far everyone who has the Comptech equipment seems to be very happy with the upgrades.We are planning a meet here at our dealership possibly in April so if you would like to see some of the Comptech equipment installed before you decide this might be a good time for you to take a look.I am not quite sure exactly what the Boss has in mind or the exact date but it is a meet for all of performance oriented customers.Meantime if you should have any questions or concerns feel free to ask or give us a call at (201)587-0029.Jens

I think the exhaust and suspension components on the CL and TL are interchangeable for the most part.
