Hello all,
I am new to the forum so forgive me if I ask the same question that has been ask a hundred times. I have read the post concerning the different stages of exhaust. I'm looking to do the stage 2 at this time. Does anyone have any regrets and did it cause any issues (c.e.l.) ex. Thanks for your help!

 

Welcome to the forums. I moved this to the Performance Parts & Modifications subforum for you.

 

No CEL.

I think some certainly had "regrets" (at least 2nd thoughts), because many soon went to "Stage 3". Most of those, iirc, thought it wasn't loud enough.

 

I agree with Bearcat. Stage 2 is barely noticeable. Do stage 3 it gives it a nice tone and is still not too loud or raspy...

 

By going with a Magnaflow res. and a mid-delete, your saying it is not very noticeable outside.. hopefully some ). How about the interior noise between 2K-3K rpms. I have another car with Flomasters and the drone is terrible, but is to be expected with the type of car that it is on. I would like the keep the TLS at a decent decible while crusin. I'll put up with the noise on the other one.

 

I'm thinking about going with the magnaflow and mid-delete. I'm somewhat concerned about the drone myself. From what I have read, it doesn't seem to be a issue with this combination.

 

DON'T BOTHER WITH STAGE 3.... just make a modified stage... and put in an aero 2.5" resonator you wont regret it, better sound quality than the dynomax... the dynomax yields a fake ass g35 tone

 

Hi all-
i'm also new the the thread. i'v read lots of threads about this and i'v decided a would like to try out stage 3 but, every muffler shop i go to tells me they dont weld stainless steel. Dose any one know ware in a shop is in MN that will.

 

to the OP these stages dont really exist in terms of better to worse its all about preference....

 

I did stage 2 and thought it wasnt loud enough. I changed it to stage 3 like a week after.

 

BAM, i cant message you cause of the post count. but check out the acurazine meets and you'll find a twin cities thread. there's a local shop here in MN and one of the guys own a TL so i think they'd be happy to work something out

 

cool thanks for the info razzi

 

Stillhere,
Any sound bytes with that Aero, I noticed that the dynomax, from the vids, doesn't give the sound quality I was looking for. It does sound cheezy.
