Has anyone ever did a exhaust cutout on there Acura tl and was the sound really nice?

 

If you PM me with your email I have a sound clip I just made, I can send you.

 

NA? If a screaming loud car moving slowly is your idea of nice...............i mean rice

 

They all leak when closed so think of too ill gladly sell you mines

 

Does it leak alot? And how much will you sell yours for?

 

Lets just say I'm a perfectionist I notice everything.lol it's noticeable to the untrained ear ($190+ shipping)

 

Lol at 190$ its 139$ on eBay new plus shipping its like 150$

 

It's made by qtp no eBay brand & 2-1/2"

 

Oops checked my recite & I paid 2something in dec 2011. So I'll let it go for 140 shipped it will come with BRAND NEW(Y pipe & gasket). I'll add pics shortly if your still interested ?

 

I've heard one TL with the qtp & it sounded really mean, almost formula 1 car sound. I wouldn't mind doing it myself.

 

just PM'ed you. can you send me the clip as well? is this qtp brand or ebay aftermarket?

 

after hearing the sound clip from hi speed I knew I had to get a cutout. Especially since the the turbo quiets down the exhaust note so much that i cant hear the rumble from my hks cans.

went with the 3" qtp setup after reading plenty of reviews online.

 

Does it really matter what brand you get?

 

Is it going to sound weird because my tl automatic

 

Rush, still selling your qtps? PM me

 

I just finished my setup i only have one sound clip and it was hard to hold the camera at the same time! Mine is a 2.5 pipe with a 3in pipe coming off from summit racing, i am running the qtp 3in cutout and have no leaks.




pics are before i installed the cutout and removed the heatshield(there's plenty of room)

 

i went qtp based on reviews were people said they had it running for a few years. havent read any reviews of the cheaper ebay brands.

i mean, as long as the piping is stainless steel then thats fine no matter where you get it from. but the internal motor for the cutout may be of cheap china quality if you buy from ebay

also, it seems that if you use the qtp cutout, you need to use thier piping as well b/c the gasket and bolt hole are made specific for that brand

 

no

this thing is loud. gives a nice throaty rumble at idle. kinda raspy under decel and partial throttle. at wot it screams.

turbo whistle ftw

 

this thread is not condusive to me saving money. i want some throaty idle

 

Any videos from outside?

 

^waiting for the rtv gasket maker to dry first. i drove with it open from the welder without the motor attached

 

easy access to the switch. works great

 

sicck

 

Is it hard to wire it

 

thanks for the audio attachement. sounded much better than any V6 i've heard

 

My secret racing switch. Only one large resonator before cutout, no cats.

 

 

b18 driver is really trigger happy on the 3rd honk

 

The only way this should be done is if you are turbo or at least s/c. If you stock and dont even have PCD or a J-Pipe its just rice. All you have now is a loud slow ass car.

 

I really only open mine for an all out run or just for noise in traffic. The extra noise makes me think something is wrong since the car is pretty quiet with it closed. Wot sounds crappy in my opinion, but does add to full boost runs. It's most fun next to a loud V8 or to ensure someone that that you are worth the run. Almost any car that is a good run for a turbo TL wouldn't look twice at it, without some confirmation.
