Just picked up a 2007 TL Type S for my wife. It's her DD. Might do something to the exhaust. Not sure what though.

^^ I know what you mean! Once you get in her car to drive it, you'll feel like you're 16 years old again...you'll be looking for any excuse to get in and drive it!

^^Wow-I think that trumps the Type S. Well, get your wife to join Acurazine too. Hopefully, she will be into the car as much as you are!

Yeah I've had her on some forums. I'm a big forum nerd. Some I mod on too. She never really got into it. But like said the TL is hers. She loves it. She deserves a nice car. Good wife and mommy.

If you want to slightly modify the exhaust, but not make it obnoxious, I would highly recommend removing the mid-muffler and putting a straight pipe in instead. I hate making this comparison, but it gives it a bit of a G35 sound, but deeper.

Here is a clip I made after removing it:

It sounds great when you drive it, and if you don't dig into the gas pedal very hard, it still sounds pretty much stock.

Let me know what you think.
