Question Full exhaust?

Okay, I hear ever one talking about cat backs but what about a full exhaust. Header back. No one out there makes one? I would think that Acura would at least have something for the TL? I'm not looking for sound my self I'm looking for performance and the sound is secondary.

We have the ATLP cat-back and the greddy cat-back. I believe excelerate is also developing a cat-back system.

The TL doesn't have headers, but you can consider the primary cats and the J-pipe as the "headers" that you are able to modify. There are cats out by e-shift and we are developing a j-pipe. Dyno testing will be done on Tuesday and we are accepting deposits here.

Can't say for certain, but gains should be just as good as it will allow the engine to breather better not only by having a bigger diameter, but a smoother pulse flow. Couple that with a smooth flowing cat-back exhaust and you will have one heck of a system.

As Mike mentioned it isn't possible to do headers per se on the TL. The TL has the exhaust manifolds built into the head. Acura put two cats right off the cylinder heads and then another one further downstream. E-Shift developed some high flow cats but they are checking on the design of the system. Mike (aznbo) is developing a J-Pipe, which goes after the 2 cats off the head and before the third cat. We should also have a j-pipe out shortly too. And then there is the catback exhaust too, which there are a number of. I should have some video clips, pictures, and dyno info tomorrow on this.
