What are our chances of some sound clips? Waiting anxiously for the pics. Thanks!

sounds good to me

Are you all having the issue with the left hanging slightly lower? And is it easy to fix?

Also I'd like to hear some sound clips, inside and outside of the car.

mine sits maybe a half inch lower on the left side...its a subtle difference but you can tell its there. heard about some guys using heavy-duty wire ties but i dont think they held up? maybe someone else can chime in on that...

Yea, i tried the wire ties and the right side fell down from the take offs. I'm gonna see about drilling a hole inside of the current rubber hangers as someone else stated, that seems like it would work.

Well if a shorter hanger is what is needed, then maybe someone could make one. Or xcelerate could have his shop fashion one up?

There is adjustment in the system. You have to have someone push up on the muffler before tightening the clamps on the axleback section. I installed one of these in person and we got the tips to sit evenly and flush without changing anything on the hangers.

Just click on the system you want for pricing. There is non-resonated and resonated.

This is a bolt on system that we can ship out to you. It's not something that needs to be installed by us.

Check out this thread:

https://acurazine.com/forums/3g-tl-performance-parts-modifications-112/excelerate-non-res-exhaust-687885/

It has sound clips of the non-res system.

They'll work for the forward hangers, but not the rear most. The rears are cocked at a 90 degree angle. Please keep us updated.

Which would you guys recommend, resonated or non, I have an 06 tl 6spd, and it's not a daily driver but I do take it on some trips so I wouldn't want a lot of drone, but I do want something aggressive as I do like to open it up once and a while. I'm also thinking of adding the A-spec kit. I have no exhaust mods currently but have an AEM CAI. Is the concensus that this exhaust is better than the Comptech and Greddy? Thanks

You should probably go resonated. Quality is outstanding.

Actually, they are slightly larger from top to bottom than side to side, so they are technically oval, but at quick glance they look round.
