Post Those of you who dont have an intake, heres sound clip

I bet most of you already have intakes but in case you dont, here are some sound clips....its actually a video clip but vid quality is crappy :o First one is from a 60mph+ roll so you can hear the VTEC change over at 5k, notice how the sound changes....second one is from 50mph+ roll. Stock Exhaust.

Get the headers and the exhaust (even though it only add a couple of HP), it does make the TL sound good though. You can tell alot with the headers, especially at freeway speed.

You have convinced me to get the intake. I was afraid it was going to sound like a civic with an intake, but it sounds ALOT BETTER.

hey freakyshiat, i noticed that when your engine reached around 4000 rpm that there was an considerable increase in the loudness of the intake. it seemed to happen instantaneously. Does it always sound like that? hope u know what im talking about

What if the mystery mod requires you to remove the intake? This is another reason why I am waiting.

No, in fact I think the CAI is supposed to complement it. I remember the dynos posted here awhile back, and they charted a stock TLS, one with the mystery mod, and one with the mystery mod plus the CAI.

The only thing that comes to mind would be if you decide to go for the Comptech's super charger/icebox combo. Also if you decide to go HID on the fogs since there is not enough clearance behind the left fog light assembly if you have the filter head in the way.

Nice clips!

Now we need someone to do the same thing with the Comptech axle back exhaust, take a couple of clips from the interior (one at 55-60 and hold if for a few seconds, the other from about 3000 and into the vtec zone).

Any takers?

wav files of the Comptech exhaust installed on the TL are already on the site. Click on exhaust on top, then click on the Comptech exhaust, you will see links to 2 wav files....

Hay fazel, thanks

Yep, I have listened to those, I was guessing they were taken outside the vehicle, I thought it would be nice to have some just like freaky did from the inside of the vehicle.

Tim do you know if those are inside our outside the vehicle for sure?
