APexi WS II cat back
Is it worth paying 550 for the apexi II ws cat back exhaust....It sounds great but for 550.....I've heard it doesn't give that much Hp.....I've been told that it gives 8 Hp to the wheel....and that's not worth it.....So does the apexi Ws II cat back gives the acura TL-S a good difference in performance......If not then....I wanna know is there another exhaust that give more Hp....but give a nice sound....thats not to loud...

No, Apexi WSII does not give 8whp...maybe about 3whp...and no other brand of exhaust gives more HP...they are all the same. Comptech is more quiet...but gains are the same and it costs twice as much. The TL-S has 2.25in catback piping, thus the Type S has that much less to gain from exhuast(the TL-P has 2in piping and would benefit more).
No matter what brand...exhuast for both TLs...especially the Type S...is for sound/aesthetics.

I have comptech catback and headers and i paid more than 1500 for them, but it worths it
i have a TL-P so the gain is significant, and with a Type-S cat too

the type-s has bigger piping because it puts out more exhaust. bigger valves, more air flow. .25" isnt alot. the tl-s would get alot more out of a 2.5" exhaust than a tlp..

Not bad at all...but the price for the headers is kinda pricy. The CAI, and Pulley is of course more affordable for lighter mods.

The ICe Box is designed to be a OEM replacement, Its practically as quiet as the stock AirBox.... Also make sure and get the Kand N filter, I want to say that makes more noise but i might be crazy or wrong
