Underpaid

Will was that you last night on central going up Jackson Ave??? If that was you I notice does exhaust a mile away bling bling!!!

Nice deep tone at idle and across the RPM band...Like "typeR" said...actually a tad bit more quiet at idle. Mine are almost 2 years old as well...and still in great shape..still the same sound as when I put them on.

Hah yeah that was me! Had to go to petco and get some cat supplies.

Where were you?

Looks nice. How much was the intall? I'm looking to get some mufflers put on, and was curious what it would cost me.

racersky

hmmmm i wonder what those exhaust gingerbread has would look on a CL. Probably nice I would assume. I got a quick question which would you pick the 14832 or the 14829?

I think a 4" tip is just too big, makes it look too much like the typical fart cannon on most imports. I think the Comptech tips are perfect at 3.5" round.

i think the 14829's woudl look good on a TL, how much are they?

magnaflow needs a god damn oval tip...almost oblong like, similar to our style

Joe5.0

They kinda do, but they dont have them with a muffler.

yeah, but the rolled oblong is like TOO much of a oblong shape...plus, it's a fuckin long ass tip, which would most likely stick out from the bumper.

Nice, I think I've found a better and cheaper replacement than the HKS Super-Dragers.

Don't mind if I bite.

racersky

and what replacement is that?

how's the sound of these comparing with the comptechs???

i am looking for an exhaust that is not too loud

samkws

they are around 90 each

but it looks gd with TL, i like angle cut tips

kegger

look real nice man....sound clip would be great!!!

racersky

i mean killer between what he said with magnaflow mufflers and hks draggers I would go with hks draggers cause in my opinion they have a really nice tone. But some people might think otherwise.

1killercls

allrightythen.

mystikk

Ehh I'd get the Dragers if I had $600 to throw away for only a few hp, but $180 plus installation charges with a new and different tone sounds better.

Amoeba

i wanna hear the tone

joseph_99tl

my magnaflows....

PavDog

Anyone have sound clips?

joseph_99tl

Hey i just wanted to know if i need to cut offf my stock hangers to install these. I just ordered these and was wondering thanks

01CLKID

how much did you pay to install these?? anyone ever had meineke do it??

Stealth CL

i wouldnt ake it to meineke. from what ive heard the dont do that good of a job. Take it to a custom exsaust shop and get the piping Mandrel bent if possible.

01CLKID

well i went to a custom exhaust shop and was quoted 150 i laughed and left....is this reasonable....i was told like 50 dollars should cover it

Stealth CL

mine quoted me about 220 ish, and that seemed reasonable to me, considering the amount of welding involved. thats also with mandrel bent pipes

you going with just axleback?

Moodist

iTrader: (2)

$150 to make a custom axleback is about right. $150 to cut off the old mufflers and then weld the magnaflows is too much.

little brad

i'm considering doing magnaflow instead of comptech, even though i get a discount on comptech because i used to work for acura. hmm...

01CLKID

sound clips already posted

01CLKID

i found those before i bought mine ^^^ they convinced me

blueglows

that does not really sound like mine do... i guess the sound changes a lot once your put on headers.. i have a CAI too but i think the guy in the video has one too judging by the loudness in vtec...when my exhaust gets very hot from like extended driving, the tone gets A LOT deeper and louder... like you can almost feel the vibration and deepness inside the car especially from 2-3rpm
I love it though!

jproy

man your shit sounds sweet as hell. Mine would sound similar in an ideal world. i like it quiet though. however, that sounds awesome! thanks for the time with the videos and all. you da manh
