2015 acura mdx exhaust system?
hello everyone just wondering if anyone has put an aftermarket exhaust system on the 3G mdx and if so which one is good also i am looking for something with a deep sound but less aggressive something like the infinite FX 45 sounds like

But if the exhaust system is the same as the 2G rdx, there is actually quite a few parts for that generation.

Closest thing there is would be a High Flow Cat or PCD:

The RV6 is the only bolt on. I'm considering the same 'variable' sound like you mentioned with the FX45.
There's a muffler brand: DynoMax VT (Variable Tune) DynoMax® VT® Mufflers - DynoMax® Performance Exhaust
Which has the spring loaded flap (works on CFM output, similar to BMW/Infiniti) however I haven't had the time to research which model would be best appropriate for the MDX.
I think that'll be the best bet though, if you go for it, please post up!

you will never get an Acura to sound like an Infiniti.
there are just things out of your control.
like cylinder firing order and the particular engine characteristics......
Honda's, especially the J-series LOVES TO REV!
this translates to ugly sounding exhaust note.
the rasp is real, fellas!

I am just trying to figure it out how it would look for a 2014 - 2016 MDX as there is no exhaust outlet, unlike the new 2017.
Unless you take out the reflectors. I thought about the idea before but did not executed as there is too much work. I was going to get an Universal Remus exhaust.
2014 - 2016 single side and the 2017 are dual exhaust.

not exactly sure what the muffler/exhaust setup is like on the mdx but i ended up modding the exhaust on my 2016 rdx. i wanted a deeper, throatier sound like an infiniti and i knew i wasn't going to get exactly that but i could at least try to get something close to it.
i started with deleting the res since it seemed like the way to go. it made it throatier but not much louder. the biggest difference was the drone inside the cabin though. it was more noticeable than anything happening with the exhaust outside the car.
i started dabbling with possibly throwing the res back on and then removing the muffler to run straight pipes from the axel back but i quickly shot that idea down after i heard an sq5 do exactly that. no resemblance to our car at all but it let me know that it would be WAY too loud if i did that so instead, i got the magna flow 12265 (single in, dual out, transverse style) and i couldn't be more happier. it gave me that deeper sound i wanted without too much drone inside but its loud enough for me to hear it when i step on it from inside the cabin. if i get the chance to, ill post a video of how it sounds.
hope this helps!

ill snap a few pics and a video later today for you. while i was at the shop, we played around with some tips and how it would look but in the end, we decided it wouldn't look great unless we started cutting the bumper and fitting it in that way but i wanted to keep things as oem as possible so i passed on the tips. the pipes are pointed downwards , exactly how the stock setup is, only difference is that since my muffler is smaller now, the 2 out pipes are longer. to the average eye, everything seems ordinary and non-modified but to all acura owners, you'll probably notice immediately lol

Nice set up on what you did on the RDX. There has been some complaint in regards to the exhaust outlets on all the Acura vehicles. ILX, MDX, TLX, RDX and RLX where there is a lack of visibility on exhaust outlets.
I guess the new 2017 and up Acura line up have redesign the bumper to show more aggressive looks with exhaust outlets.

Yea ive heard a ton of complaints about the lack of visible exhaust tips but I don't mind it on the rdx or mdx. I can see why the ilx and tlx owners might complain but I'm a fan of how they styled the current gen rdx and mdx. The a-spec tlx has massive tips now and I'm not digging those
