It's not loud until you punch it full throttle! =D
Or when your stuck in snow with VSA off....

 

Would resonated tips help tone it down? I was hoping the tips were resonated at least. Was it even possible with the square tips?

 

you wanna weld some quad tips on this for me

 

God that looks so fucking nice...

It better fit... I've been waiting a very very very long time to see this.

Noooooooooooo! You can't do this to me

What clearance issues are you referring to? How do these tips compare (size wise) to OEM? Can you tell us what will need to be cut to get these to fit an RJ bumper?

 

If the dimesions Mike gave me a while back are still true, the sides of the exhaust cutouts would need to be trimmed. And until I see them next to the RJ rear, I think to limit the cutting, they would have to be down too far.

 

I must say this ehaust is sexy. I have another Q, why does the ATLP non res make more power then the XLR8 non res, tanabe non res, and comptech non res? And does the greddyII make the most power out off all the exhausts sorry for the hijack

 

Tanabe doens't have a non-res, neither does comptech. in fact, both have a res and a mid-muffler.

 

Okay then the res versions?

 

Because the ATLPs are made of pure awesomeness?

 

ATLP or XLR8 for me. I don't need the stinkin mid muff or res, YUK.

 

either one you cant go wrong

 

Well the ATLP, makes more power? So if u want taht go with it.

 

This totally sucks. I'd really like to see these tips next to stock tips so I can get a better visual of the difference. I wonder if Mike would just sell the ATLP without a tip... Then I'd just find one that fits the RJ rear and have it welded on.

 

Now there is an idea! I saw some tips I wanted, they are like $75 each. They kinda look like the tips on the M series Mercedes.

 

any fitment updates or possible install pics??

 

Here's some news. We got the prelim install done. Everything works so far, the only thing we will need to do from this point is make a working muffler, and check for sound.

Anther possibility for this batch is we may have a east/west-coast vendor stocking our products. This will help a lot with shipping times, costs, and could even help those who want to pick it up in person. That of course is TBA.

Anyway, on to the good stuff.

Tim pulls up, rear bumper comes off. The Quads look so naked. =)


We proceed to take off the mufflers to make room for the dummy fitment muffler.


Dummy muffler goes on, holes are punched and orientated to fit the quad pipes that go into the tips.


Tip is then fitted, made sure there aren't any clearance problems, and then welded.


Excuse the white foam covering the tip, we didn't want to damage the tip so we kept on the padding. Without the foam, you will be seeing the side of the tip and a glimpse of the quad pipes with it's TIG welding. Pipes will be polished as well.


Rear-end shot shows how it will look for other drivers staring at your back. =)


Top view shot shows how much will be showing.


And the money shot.


Hi-Res is available. Does it more justice.

Interest, e-mail me please. mike@acuratlparts.com.

Thanks! Feedback, comments welcome! We've got probably around 10 more spots for the first batch.

 

sex

 

omfg!!!!!!!!!!!

 

ew.. tim.. why tim... haha.. jk

dam.. so sexy... yummmmmmmmmmm...

 

Me likey

 

awesome
it looks like quads from behind

 

dope!

 

Looks badass. You base guys are lucky bastards.

 

wow! i can't help but wonder what it looks like without the white padding and also with the a-spec lip on

 

ballin!

 

Can't wait to see a real set-up installed with more side shots.
And some MORE sound clips. I am not sure if I like it as much as the quad exhaust.

 

OK I guess I will be the first. It looks just all right to me. Almost looks like it is just thrown together, with no symmetry as to the mufflers leaning one way then the tips off the other way. I think personally the muffler should have had 1 outlet. To me it looks like from the back (what the other drivers will see view), the tip is lost. But again this is my 2 cents.

 

looks good but i need to see more pics of it ...

 

I agree. I'm turned off right now. The angles don't look quite right, the tips are rounded on the sides more then they should be. I mean, they fit in that square cutout, yet they are roundish, I dunno.

The thing about the rear shots that you have to understand is, it's all clean. So "To me it looks like from the back (what the other drivers will see view), the tip is lost." will more then likely go away when everything gets black exhaust crap all over it lol...(on the inside of the tips/etc)

 

no guys I think its the white padding thats taking away what it looks like... any photoshop guru's wanna work some magic?

also photoshop guru's do a black inside like the stock tips....


ps. AM w/ NBP rear bumper PURE-SEX... NOT

 

not to mention with a-spec rear lip.

 

Holy shit that looks sick, hmmm makes me reconsider possibly getting this.

 

I see what you are talking about. If I'm seeing correctly you are referring to the fact that the "outline" of the tip is drowned out, and it's hard to make out the actual shape from the back. That is partially due to the picture, as the inside of the exhaust tip is way shiny. Everyone knows that after about a days of driving the inside darkens a good few shades, putting much less emphasize on the inside, and making the outline of the tip pop. It really doesn't look "drowned" out in person, but through the pictures I can see.

If enough people do NOT like the current design, I can have the manufacturer make the rolled edge width thicker, making the "outline" of the tip more distinct. Let me know if I'm totally talking about something else, or if that's what your seeing.

Also, the angles are what they are. Any more, you might just keep the stock, and it won't look right. you will see too much of the "inside" from the side.

 

I think its fine the way they are. We've been waiting long enough. Get the mufflers going so it can go into production. You can't satisfy everyone with the design. There was plenty of time to give feedback when it was discussed regarding the tip design.

Sorry to hear about your deal with the fraud on AZ. I hope you get your money or exhaust back. I hope this situation doesn't affect your work on current and future ATLP products.

 

I realize, that which is why I'm waiting to get a general opinion from everyone as a whole. As mentioned earlier, the inside of the tips will naturally darken, and it won't be drowning out the tip as a whole.

 

And no, the little scam issue won't be an interference. A speed bump maybe, but it will be taken care of on the side.

 

 

omg those tips are huge! I want to make my deposit next paycheck

 

OK- now here is the most important question for us RJ owners, what are the width and heighth dimensions of the tips. Is there no one near you with an RJ rear so we can test fit these? I will volunteer but alas I am in the great depression state of Michigan. These tips are growing on me, and I did forget about how they get darker. I have waited a long time, and I don't want to have to "adjust" the RJ rear to fit.

P.S.- It's only a short flight from Cali to the Motor City!

 

looks pretty good... +1 on more pics!! =]
