Looking for exhaust combo ?
Ive been researching for a long time now but patiently waiting to order a good complete exhaust setup. Alot of people on this forum know who I am so Im not no N00b! So is there anyone who was brave enough to have this combo that I have in mind which is : ATLP Base Exhaust + RV-6 V3 J-Pipe + RV-6 V3 PCD's or ATLP Base Exhaust + Atlp V2 J-pipe+ Test pipe combo + V3 PCD's. Also how the sound might be without a resonator but then the confusion comes in with the drone or rasp that comes from the PCDS but im willing to take on this project. The time is closing in soon for the modding bug to take its course again so any new Videos or opinions will help. Im deff sure bout the setup but im itching now to order so its just a debate on the j pipe since Mr Heel Toe gave us a tease with the ATLP V2R thread so im trying to hold on.Thnx guys.

It will rasp, but I don't think it's bad. Drone will probably be way nasty without adding a big 'ol resonator in there though. www.youtube.com/watch?v=cm0foOLpP54

If anyone has the Atlp Base with rv6 v3 j pipe + pcds or even without pcds im dying to see a video before I order these goods. Also Ive went to a few meets but no one really had this setup. I have a few more weeks to think since im waiting for richie to update his true dual exhaust thread to let us know if he would be making base tips like the ATLP because if so ill give him the deposit asap.

I would go with the V3 PCD's and V3 jpipe since they give you the best gains + v3 jpipe gives you awesome clearance....
After that no matter what exhaust you put, it will all come out to be pretty much the same....the gains will be similar the sound will be similar....pretty much boils down to what tips your looking at....

Our XLR8 exhaust systems have been described as sound almost exotic. We use T304 stainless steel in designing our exhaust products and our mufflers are built with Purge Resonance Technology in order to reduce drone, which is typical for most aftermarket exhausts on the 3rd gen TL.

thanx swoosh thats true you do get the best gains with the rv6 v3 setup but im deffinatley gearing towards ordering the atlp base exhaust because of the tips but im giving Richie time to answer us all in his thread because as long as ive been on this forum for a few years now Im one of those lurkers but Ive seen ppl order the newest product at the end then a few months later a newer version would come out then all of a sudden you see all the old batches up for sale lol. But its just a matter of timing and patiently waiting to see if anyone has unknown videos they might not have put up or something u never know. So lez keep em coming guys. ATLP BASE TIPS ARE SEXYYYY!!!!!!! FTMFW
http://www.magnaflow.com/02product/s...e=main&id=9666
it will end up being way cheaper...
on a side note: I havent dealt with Richie but he comes across as a great guy....I have dealt with Josh (XLR8) and he is just a gem of a person...Also I have dealt with ATLP (Mike) and he is an amazing fella....I wish my head wasnt stuck on custom (i went the custom route), I would have ordered from either of these vendors....

Post some videos menggg if you dont have when you can a chance you can probably make a quick one even if its a crappy iphone video lol. Im sure im not the only who would like to see and hear some reviews on the atlp base exhaust setup with the rv6 v3 pacakage so im putting it out there for others to gauge interest as well according my research most people have atlp QUADS with an rv6 combo but not the atlp base with the rv6 combo and if they do its mostlikely on a Type -S instead of a regular base Think its time I get a type s 6mt mayb lol.

We are now offering an optional Polished Chrome Ceramic Coating in our precat deletes to help combat underhood temps and keep exhaust gasses hotter which in turn speeds up exhaust gas velocity. The precat deletes are coated inside for maximum heat retention. This unique coating is polished for a highly reflective surface that looks amazing.
Over the years we’ve made several improvements to perfect this product. The biggest challenge was getting a round pipe to fit smoothly into an oblong hole. By stretching the pipe thin spots were formed that were prone to cracking. Combined with the rocking of the engine, cracking failures were fairly common. To solve this problem we tried using flex pipes, thicker materials and extra thick welds. These were all band aid fixes that never completely solved the problems. Until we decided to take a new approach.
Introducing the new V3 Precat deletes aka V3 PCDs. Designed completely using 3D CAD and CMM. The transition from flange to pipe or high flow cat is made from precision casted 304 stainless steel. This allows for optimum turbulence free flow with no sacrifice in strength. The castings are no thinner then 5mm at their thinnest point, roughly 3 times thicker then the V2 PCDs. We are confident that the V3 PCDs can handle any abuse without cracking.
- 304 Stainless cast stainless flange sections.
- 304 Stainless 2.25” tubing
- TIG welded
- Argon back gassed for pure welds
- Includes new gaskets and hardware
If richie would like to chime in on his opinion then feel free also buddy.

^^^ from the description, yeah they are coated from inside....
but silver is used to reflect heat and not to trap heat....either way....you can wrap the exhaust components to speed up the pulses....

See now this is the sound im aiming for Swoosh but comparing it now to see how the rv6v3 j pipe would sound and if maybe someone might have a pcd setup as well or even if someone has a similar agressive tone.http://youtu.be/y-E1Sr_Uwyg

Yea i know i pmed him a while back but havent really gotten a reply but i believe his setup includes the atlp test pipe but this same exhaust note but a tad bit louder and thats why i was thimking mayb the rv6 j pipe or hfpcd instead might help cure the pcd rasp lol. Im anxious to order it soon im not going to go longer than the ending of this month im giving time for the sales to arrouse.

^^^ the only thing which can contain rasp is a resonator....
a different jpipe will not tone down the rasp....I would suggest getting whatever setup you have in mind...if you dont like the sound, add a resonator....if its too melow, remove the resonator/change the mufflers....etc....

^^^ here this might help....
from the worst to the best setup you wont make/lose more than 2-3 whp (from PCD's to tips).....
the sound will be very identical....by spending another 100-200 dollars for resonator/muffler you will get the sound you want....
just coz a new cellphone is around the corner doesnt mean you will not buy the cellphone in front of you....
these vendors on the site are awesome and will keep coming with new products for us to benefit from....but this doesnt mean you will wait for the life of the car for it....
if you dont like it to much and like the next product....BM FTW !!!

Is there anyone still who has the XLR8 v2 j pipe im getting closer to ordering soon and searching the F/S threads but still nothing good. It has boiled down to either the rv6 v3 j pipe or the xlr8 v2. Im just trying to compare some reviews from other fellow aziners.
