Who says you cant have TL-s tips on a base 04 TL. Was at the muffler shop again and had them make me a custom set.....oooohhh me likey. Throw me sum opinions... good or bad. I still luv em! Check my pics

 

pshh making us work for the pics lol



here it is for all the lazy people lol.

 

sorry still new at postin pics...lol thanks

 

can we got more pics? looks pretty good

 

 

 

those tips look tiny

 

I think they were 2.25 or 2.50 . not as big as factory tl-s. but was tryin to work with the space i had.

 

are they stainless?

 

Nah they r just the chrome plated, wish they were stainless. Just a mod for now till i figure out wat i wanna do next.

 

meh

 

I think it looks good, with one exception....is it optical illusion, or are the exhaust tips slightly crooked ( pointing up and towards each other.)?

 

I agree but if you like it, that's all that counts.

When I did my exhaust, I debated on going quads but doing a mockup showed that the openings were just too small and going to a type-s bumper just wasn't worth the effort.

 

I still am usin the stock bumper and the tips r pointing sideways, they just roll smooth with the contour of the bumper. gotta b diffrent...lol

 

Nice job.. But not a viable substitution for real quads.. (ATLP)

 

Looks better than the other times I've seen quads on the base bumper

 

I will use them for now, wanna do the atlp or sumthin like that. this was just the cheap effective way for now..lol try to keep them as clean as possible, didnt wanna go too white trsh with em.

 

How much did it end costing you, got a pictures of the car on the lift ( IE to see how it was done)?

 

sorry didnt have my camera at the time, but he just made two custom y pipes and fit them till it was right then put the chrome tips over and welded it all up. cost over 100$ for the fab work. it wouldnt have cost so much if i had done it when i got the custom catback, but wasnt thinkin bout quads at the time. so he had little room to work with.

 

Good for you for being original. Its doesn't look bad. I mean the shop had alot less time to do the tips then the people had for the current exhausts for sale for our cars. So I would say its not bad at all. Did you get a full straight pipe or did they just do the mufflers for you??

 

its runs from the j pipe back, no third cat. really does make a difference in the power. i am lucky that my muffler guy does his own cirlcle track race car so he has good knowledge of wat can be done

 

what brand are the mufflers? Got any part numbers? By the way it looks very nice.

 

They r just a universal flowmaster, then he made a y pipe right off the back for the bumper cutout

 

Another quick note if u want a deeper tone i would go with a magnaflow, wish i would have but these r welded up now....lol

 

wow it looks good, something original. Nice work!

 

thanks Skaii.

 

ur doing it all wrong! lol jk

 

What magnaflow muffler are you speaking of?? part number? name/series?

 

You guys all talk about magnaflow, comptech, HKS, and ATLP there are so many other mufflers out there you can custom make for your car. I have sebring tuning mufflers and soon to get quad tips and these are some crazy ass mufflers i gotta tell you.

 

hey cbvette, not sure of the exact # on them just checkin on them for now. actually i went back and had the shop take out the resonator and got exactly the tone i wanted . so done with this mod on too the next....lol
