Well i just installed the comptech exhaust all i have to say it's awesome it's not loud what so ever. i feel defference at 6k were the tl usally dies off it keeps pulling. Any one witha 6 speed it's must

 

Lets see your work my friend.

 

will put some up this week. Just letting everyone know its not loud at least on the 6 speed i can speak for

 

Well I am getting the same exhaust as you, but I just put on the rims, tires, and got my windows tinted, so I taking my time for a few weeks at least. Cant wait to see your pics.

 

Hey, itz nice to know that the exhaust helps out after 6k rpm. Thanx for sharing. I hate that dead part between 6200-7000 rpms!!!

 

before and after dyno???

 

Just saw where A of E is selling the CT Exhaust for $950...

 

i dont know if spending a grand on a exhaust that yeilds like 8 hp is really worth it...comptech should sell them for cheaper

 

I got mine for $700.00 it was well worth it gotta watch ebay!!! I was saying the same thing to myself about the $1000.00 bucks. But you get what you pay for. I will say the pictures don't do the exhaust justice when you see it in person how well done the exhaust is you would understand why. And the gain after 6k to redline is well worth it. Now that i have it i could never go back

 

Ran the car today at Englishtown the exhaust works great had the 19's on and still ran 14.20 and i trapped 98mph in 85 deg weather i will say at night this will click off 14.0 no problem and with 17's on a high 13's no problem COMPTECH EXHAUST ON 6 SPEED I will post a pic of the car in a little bit

you bought that slightly used one didnt you?

 

Yes i did it was on someones car for a photshoot they said who cares it was perfect when i got it

 

If the manual nets about 8hp, cut that in half for the auto, no?

 

loooks sexy!!! I want it! those tips on it are nice. I'll keep looking on ebay=)

 

He has the complete Comptech Exhaust, those arent tips. Looking good man !

 

Thanks i love it more and more each day

 

Yeah i know he has the complete catback system. I'm just saying the tips on the comptech exhaust look nice since its bigger than the ones on the TSX and others. Fills in the holes real nice.

 

I would say not! if a Supercharger gives a manual 80hp does it give an auto 40hp?? that would imply the loss in an auto is twice as much as the loss of a manual. I think most mods can be closely compared to work somewhat in percentages as far as gain is concerned, not straight numbers.

 

Nitrotiger-

Have you put a CAI on your car yet?? I noticed alot more power when adding my Injen CAI after having the exhaust on. From what I understand our cars can benefit 22-25hp additional with both mods on.

Not yet still thinking about it. GOing to wait for comptech iceman. Good results on the CL type s i used to have

 

NITRO !!!

Don't think about it too long.I got the Comptech year ago and went with

AEM intake.I tell you You need both to enjoy the car,it rocks!

So your telling me the AEM is better? The ice man was nice i think i am going to leave it alone stay with the drop in K+N. Maybe is i find one cheap i will put it in.

 

Does anyone know ( I would assume via dyno) what the total gain is between the exhaust and the CAI?

 

I have had the Comptech exhaust on my 2005 Automatic TL and it is a great system. Very happy with the sound and performance gains. Have heard of several people talking about welding the stock tips on the Comptech systems to retain the stock "slanted" exhaust (have to admit...that is a good look) - but think about it.....shit...you may as well stay with stock then as you would only be restricting your exhaust flow at the exit as these are 4.5" openings - much larger capacity than stock. It would tend to defeat the purpose.

 

Pics of Comptech Exhaust

 

How is the car with the injen cai. i want to put it on but i really dont want to lose any bottom end. how much did you lose

 

I would go with the AEM CAI. I havent ordered it yet for my TL, but the dyno numbers speak for themselves. I did have ths Injen CAI on my wife's 2000 Teg a few years back, and now have and AEM on my 2000 Teg and I noticed a huge difference. The AEM had better throttle response, and you can feel it pulling at a much higher rpm. I just wish Magnaflow would build a system for the TL.

 

All I noticed was gain. (Did CAI after Exhaust)

 

I hope so because i am about to take the plunge You alway's lose something to gain so i hope i dont lose to much low in grunt

 

What is the best place to order The comptech exshaust system and whats the lowest price you'll have gotten it for? Also - Have you'll been getting it installed from the dealership and how much for the installatioN?!

 

$950.00 is the cheapiest i found around. and i installed it myself so that was free

 

Anybody know where I can get a compteck exhaust in the Dallas / Ft. Worth area/ For my 05 TL
Thanks!!
