is any other exhaust coming out for the TL because i want a more beefy and manly sound than the comptech exhaust.....

 

you are either going to have to hack up a system for an accord or 2nd gen TL or just get some mufflers and have a shop put one together for you

 

Non type specific probably. Get it custom if you want to make it louder.......or just get straight pipes

 

more manly and beefy? get a mustang

 

A customized Borla exhaust system should do the trick. Don't they advertise about getting erections from their exhausts? Now that's manly.

 

It's a 6-cylinder engine. Don't expect it to sound like a "real" engine. Borla and Magnaflow make som excellent systems, but let's face it. You just ain't gonna get serious sound out of a 6-banger.

 

I'd PM tmntmn about his system. I heard it at the last bay area meet, sounded pretty good. louder than i would want but thats not being negative...just different goals with the car.

 

I don't think any companies will produce any aftermarket exhaust systems until the second and third generation owners are driving the TL.

Until then...just get creative and customize.

 

i dont mean like a mustang i just want to be heard like some sort of hks or Greedy exhaust......something along those lines i just dont thing paying 1g for a comptech exhaust that people say doesnt sound that much different or louder is worth it...... i plan ofd gettin headers too....does any one have headers with the comptech exhaust and if soo how does it sound.....sound clips would b amazingg

 

I agree and Greddy is a bunch of pussies that won't produce an exhaust. It's sad that people don't want to make more money. A Greddy exhaust would fly off the shelves.

 

I'd buy it yesterday........

 

Ditto

 

you think their is a way to peice together an exhaust from the 2g TL.....i just love the sound of the Greedy exhaust on v6

 

I agree with building your own exhaust. You get to choose the tone and amplitude based on the parts you buy without paying the mark up of a "pre-built" exhaust. I'm having mine done this weekend for a total of $320 for parts and installation. This includes all new SS pipe from the resonator back. Its a no-brainer.

 

yup. buy it, and take it to a shop and say "make it fit"

 

can u get a custom exhaust while havinh the e-shift procats on ur vehicle?? and what kind of shop do i take my car 2 for me 2 get a good sounding exhaust??

 

The E-Shift Pro cats just replace your stock cats. There is no modification required so if you need someone to fabricate an exhaust it will be the same as if you had the stock cats.


The only thing about going to a muffler shop is many of them don't do mandrel bends. They do crush bent bends so although you may start out with a 2.5" pipe, at the bend it reduces to maybe 2.3" pipe or something like that. Mandrel bends, which is how aftermarket exhausts like Comptech's, are 2.5" all the way throughout. So you will lose some flow with crush bent piping which is what most of those mufflers shops will use. They also will not likely use stainless steel since it requires a different welder and different material. And then you still have to consider the cost of mufflers.

 

Ditto, I'd be all over it. It's sad how they produced an exhaust for the Subaru Gt's, yet they couldn't find a market for it with our TL

 

You can use a mig welder on SS pipe, it just will be more prone to rust in the areas where you welded. Good shops will have both a mig and a tig welder to deal with those types of issues.

Also, I really doubt you will lose much if you use regular bends on a built system. Unless you are doing a bunch of "u" bends the difference is minimal.
