Tsudo Axle-back Mufflers:

Mid-Muffler Delete "bye bye"

DC Sport Headers:

BTW does anybody have any info on these headers?

I'm lookin for that nice low v6 growl and some performance enhancement but nothing too drastic...the TL has enough power. especially since there is a large amount of undercover police and state troopers thanks to the uprising in ricers and idiots

Go CAI. Why would you go axle-back, and not cat-back?

IMO, DC's headers are the biggest bang for the buck. They're well-made and durable. I've had mine for 3 1/2 years with no problems once I got the leaky gasket issue fixed.

BTW, the headers in that link are the old two-bolt style, which I had problems with leaking. DC's latest design should have 3-bolt flanges. I'd give the merchant a call to make sure you get the 3-bolt design to avoid any headaches.

Yeah, definitely CAI. I went with Comptech's Icebox.

keep in mind, if you do the 6speed swap, your dc headers will NOT fit

rear motor mount bracket is different, and the dc headers do not have the kink for it.
