I like the rims and the drop. Sound clip of the exhaust? Feel any gains? WS2 mufflers have a nice tone from what I remember on my 2g TLS. You need the kit! Nice car

Aren't you missing a component on this list, like a clean sweep, if you upgraded the door speakers?

Also, and earthquake amp??

Did it look like this.

The only thing I would change is the caliper paint. Otherwise, looks good!

MR! please do shed some more light on the exhaust! where you got them are they the universal ones? I bought those universal ones at 300 a pop just to find out they were too big and needed the inlet to be offset! very very interested sir!

L's TL,

Thanks. I'll try to post up a video of the exhaust this weekend. I had this exhaust on my Integra also and loved it. As for a kit, the A-spec is in the near future.

Heavy, I went with 3 LOC instead of clean sweep. 2 for the doors and 1 for the sub. I just tapped the lines right by the amp. And no, it doesn't look like that pic. My amps aren't that old. lol

Thanks oo7spy. The caliper paint was just a tester for now. It seems that everyone is painting their calipers either red or black. My gut feeling told me to go light blue.

Yep, my 12's are pretty heavy.

I actually picked these off of Craigslist. The seller sold me the whole exhaust for cheap, it was for a TSX though. I only used the mufflers. The exhaust's offset was off for me too. I just had them swap the left to right and right to left. They also had to weld on new hangers. As for piping, I went 2.5" from the first resonator all the way to the mufflers.


Don't mind the tag. I transferred it from my old A-Spec TL.
