I have the Comptech Cat back setup, they are expensive but the quality is great. They are not loud at all and sound great. I was actually surprised at how they sound, was not expecting them to sound the way they did.

I thought you were selling the Comptech because your father and girl said they didn't like the sound.......................

What about those muffler inserts from comptech that silences the sound? you could add those to the comptech mufflers and should get you a quiet sound right?

I've heard of those but I dont know if they sell them for our setup. But then again in my opion I dont think you need silencers for the comptech setup. It would be completely quiet.

The CT exhaust for the TL are 4" tips. I believe the CT inserts are for 3" or 3.5" tips. Personally, the CT exhaust is pretty quiet.

Well if you want a catback Comptech is the only company out there with one. If you just want mufflers get some Magnaflows and have someone weld them on. Most guys use part #14832. PM me if you need them.

If you're just looking for a deeper but not over the top difference in sound, go with the magnaflows.
