Comptech I beleive is the quitest exhaust for the TL. I don't think they make a silencer for them (someone correct me if I'm wrong).

What? Comptechs are actually really quiet for an exhaust setup on our cars.

What kind of sound are you hearing? Resonance? Droning?

probably droning... what I would do is just add another resonator if you got some space. But yes, comtech's are known to be very quiet.

With the silencer inserts the exhaust is very quiet. When I want to make a little more noise I take them out. It makes a big difference.
