Got a chance to meet Eddie today he came and got some parts today great guy ... I have to say I'm jealous car looks awesome love the wheels , light mods,lipkit but what really top it off is that custom exhaust have to hear it in person to believe for your self not just a hype this is by far best mod for price and not loud at all which I thought was awsome especially for an auto , nice welds, true y bend and last but not least fitment is perfect ..........nice nice nice .......

 

excelent

 

Very nice! PM'ed u for the info.

 

This sounds great. i'm thinking about doing this too. Can we get a confirmed part # for those mufflers? You should also ask the shop what kind of tips those are, I love them.

 

The tips look like they are the Magnaflow #35175 tips

 

Mine aren't magnaflow but those look pretty damn close.

 

Could you do me a huge favor.. Could you get the measurements of that tip. The Magnaflow tip is 5.25" wide and 2.75 inches high. Just want to see how close those measurements are to the tip you have.. Thanks.

 

So considering I live in wi and it snows every year, how long do you think this kind of setup would/will last compared to a stainless steel version? I wouldn't mind doing something like this for the bang for buck, but I'm a little worried that if I do this that I'll have to keep on getting new pipes every so often? Any thoughts on this?

 

I like the sound also. Very nice.

 

That is a very nice sounding exhaust. Good move keeping a similar factory style tip. How is the interior noise with that setup??

 

It's excellent. Not loud at all on the inside but sounds great on the outside and there's no drone. I love it.

 

wow that sounds perfect. im so jealous...

 

hello can you pm me where you got your exhaust done as i am new to forum and connot msg you or you cna email me ninjasingh@hotmail.com

 

Props to you for actually searching and finding this thread instead of making a new one, but something tells me the person that started the thread isn't going to see the question you are asking him. He is at 0% activity and his last log in was on 3-18. I would wait until you can PM and hope he has it set up to where he receives an email so he can get back to you.

Other than that, you should be able to go to any exhaust shop that creates custom exhausts to have something like this done. I personally would stick to privately owned shops as opposed to going to say Meineke.

 

part number for your Y pipe ??? thx pretty great sound !!!

 

I'm also in the process of redoing my exhaust that the person before me put on...they slapped on some ricer mufflers and it sounds obnoxious. To loud, massive drone, etc etc.

 

Anyone know the tips #? I like how the OP kept avoiding all the important questions.

 

Don't know if they are magnaflow tips he was running, but if they are here is the part number 35175

uuummmmm, i sorry to be a downer, but i am noticing some things...

1. this setup... is not a true mandrel bend system. sorry
2.I had those tips on my first setup, ended up not liking them a month later(just my taste)
3. I foresee a hole in your exhaust down the line from his weld on that hanger in that 4th pic.
4. do you know if u got aluminized or stainless piping? if stainless what grade?
5.welds are decent, but there are waaaay too many.
I hope you did not pay more than 500$

as someone who has had 3 custom setups on my TL, i feel i can give my critique like i have. Again not trying to be a downer, just sharing my knowlege.

this is why i went to CM performance(Also in Ft. lauderdale). TRUE All mandrel bends, minimal welds(all tig), t304 stainless, non restricted mufflers, and the hangers were done extremely well so there would be no chance of a tear. i do have some pics of mine i will try to get up

To anyone else in the area looking to go custom, i highly recomend going to see dave http://www.cmperformanceexhaust.com/

 

uuummmmm, i sorry to be a downer, but i am noticing this thread is over 3-years old. I doubt the OP is keeping up with it anymore.

 

here are some shots of my latest setup




all mandrel bent main pipe


in place


custom made Y in place


final fitment


I know the pics suck, they were on my old phone... it's a need to see and hear in person

I don't have a sound clip, and it wouldn't sound the same to u guys because of le Turbo

 

I didn't even notice.

Still a good comparison

 

Xiomaro, this is the exact set-up I plan on doing as well...those mufflers/tips look perfect. What mufflers/tips are those? Also, what size piping is everything?

I was thinking of going with these...http://www.magnaflow.com/02product/s...=main&id=10648

 

^IMO, Mag's suck.

3" piping all the way to the Y, 2 1/2 up to the Muff's. No resonator... it sounds like every TL should. no Rasp, barely any noticeable drone, and not too loud, but mean as hell.

CM performance has their mufflers made to his specs. They are soooo well built.
and i think the tips were just some standard 4" double sidewalls. I'm going to be changing them out to some 5" tips though. i wanted it to fill the gap a little more

Also my whole setup with labor and materials was only 700$

 

sounds so warm.....

dammit i was never into exhaust before i swear then this forum

 

I'm checking out their mufflers...which ones did you go with?

 

Very nice

 

i can't remember, i think the 5x14 with 3" internals

 

Anybody here from L.A. area that knows of any good shops to get a custom exhaust done on our TL's please chime in. I'm looking to get one soon our stock one is way to bottle necked. Thanks

 

Bump for more response; I am NorCal but would go anywhere to have a quality setup like that...except maybe not Florida!!

 

Just getting peoples opinions on my options; As per GuLuMoNeY's recommendation, I took the TL to a local muffler shop, seemed to be a decent fella; his recommendation was to go with a custom exhaust made at his shop vs. buying a ready made one from XLR8 or Tsudo or gReddy (the last being the one I really would have loved to have!!). I showed him this youtube video as this is what I want - He recommends using a 3" pipe (I need to confirm material on the pipe) crush bent in his shop with magnaflow mufflers that will look and sound similar to the gReddy - all installed for $575!! (He said he'd let me try out the system without resonator) and if it's too loud then he'll place the res no charge; Also he showed me some options for drone that he could do at an additional cost ($70); It would be great to have your guys's opinions as to my options
