Hi all. It's been a while since I installed my comptech cat-back system!
So I would like to post an update.

So here it goes..


First of all, The system is great, and it sounds awsome. However, when the exhaust gets warmed up, it gets really loud in 1000 to 2500 RPM range..

Also, I would like to share some video clips that I took for those who are wondering how comptech sounds.
(As far as I know, there hasn't been any sound or video clips for Comptech Cat-Back system).

Starting up (inside)

Moving slowly (inside)

Ideling (outside when the car's AC compressor is working)

I recommend to watch these clips with Sub woofers because some speakers are incapable of emitting low-frequency sounds.

 

dude, I agree. If the sound of the exhaust stayed how it does when you first start it and 5 minutes after it would be awesome. It does get pretty loud after that 5 minutes.

 

Damn man, my whole table was shaking. I know after my car warms up with my magnaflow catback I can't really hear it idling. Make some drive by clips.

 

Quiet tip inserts!

 

hmmm, the sound on startup is not that bad. Idk, i dont plan on doing my exhaust anyways, waste of money. Doesnt do that crazy much on our TLs and its too much money for me.

 

I remember someone saying something about him having some kind of new style comptech mufflers, so the tips dont fit. It was in his pic thread. Just curious whats that about

 

lol! Yeah I've been thinking of quite tip inserts.. I hope they fit?

 

Yeah. I was planning on doing that when I have time. I think the car would sound much quiter outside than in the cabin

 

i didn't post it here doesn't mean i dun have my own clip :p

btw...nice ones

 

i drove to buffalo with 4 passengers today in my TL

and after the whole trip their ears were buzzing...esp the ones at the rear...coz i drove at 70-90mph all the way and it's about 2000rpm to 2500rpm...

they found it's kinda annoying for a 2 hr drive

 

LOL SAM

so what is your next car?

did u get my msn?

 

the mufflers are different and wont allow the making of (what i made and call Loud tip inserts, basically straight pipe inserts to bypass the baffles in the muffler) The tips are the same and should allow the use if the quiet tip inserts

 

used M3 perhaps???

300hp or no new car

 

well sam, when and if u decide to sell ur tl, plz give us a warning be4 u part it out!! im interested in some parts..

and if i had the money, id buy ur car fo sho.

 

only some of the parts?
i thought u will take them all LOL

 

well if i get a good settlement for pain n suffering within the year yea...majority ill buy lol.

r u serious bout the m3? a friend of mine had a silver convert m3...duno what year but i believe its salvaged...u would want a clean title eh.
sry for thread jackin.. nice a spec tho. cant wait this week.!

 

very good upgrade...

what year M3 are planning to purchase?

anything from 2000 and up is good since i really like that styling.

 

Lets keep on track. ask these coments in PM

 

Very nice sounding. I prefer what I bought, but it doesn't sound bad at all.
