im doing some research on exhaust for my TL. i heard that some will not fit if you have A-spec. all the research in the world does not compare to personal experience...help a brother out give me some advice, prices and pics. go ahead show off

 

You have a base TL, the only exhaust that will not fit is the ATLP quads. You need a Type-S bumper to fit them or cut your bumper.

 

dope...i dont even like the way the quads look...im looking for somthing that is quiet, not loud, and has a low frequency to get a nice hummm.

on the other hand...which system yeilds the most hp gains????

 

Comptech is a nice exhaust with humble growl

should look into it

 

+1 on comptech. I'll probably spring for that system myself down the road...

ATLP looks badass, but I've heard it can be pretty loud.

XLR8 looks great also, and they're incorporating new tech now to cut drone out almost completely...don't know of anyone with this new tech though.

If you're looking to spend less than $1k on the system itself, XLR8 and comptech are the way to go. Could get a custom system (usually magnaflow), but you have a higher chance of rasp and drone too.

 

Comptech Exhaust all the way, someone in the BM is selling it for hella cheap ($500ish shipped) search for it

 

is comptech cat back or a full exhaust system?

 

I don't think you can use the tsudo cat-back either if you have the a-spec kit.

 

comptech is cat-back, along with atlp & xlr8

 

those are alot of money for a cat back...

any1 make a full exhaust system? and how come no 1 makes headers or a freakin chip???

TL can def use a chip i know this engine can produce more than 250 hp

 

They are all pretty much full exhausts. Our 3rd cat is right off the Jpipe so it pretty much is a full exhaust. Also, it's another way for business to make money as to sell Jpipes seperate. The only "headers" for this car are the pre cat deletes, our exhaust manifolds are cast into the heads, therefore can't be changed for real headers. Chips aren't available for the TL or none seem to work, the ECU ends up overriding it. There is hondata that works from what i remember seeing a member with that. Someone else can chime in who has more knowledge about what reflashes or about hondata working on our car.
