@Steven Bell - Sorry for the multi post. I had an after thought and too late to edit my previous one.

WOW! The Civic sounds 100 times better than the TL. Of course that's a factory built road-race motor. Plus having VTEC on the exhaust cam as well makes the engine note sounds a lot better. I have the same setup in my 94 hatch. I do love loud exhausts (my civic has straight through 2.5"), but I prefer the stock setup on the TL.
Very interesting video.

To each their own. While the B series does sound good, the sound of the TL dwarfs the hatch (my opinion). It's so aggressive and has that exotic, 
"WTF was that" sound. I'm sure if a group of cars heard that exhaust note on the side of the road, they would not expect it came from a TL. That's another thing I love about it.Go to my Youtube channel. Username "Sonnick." Or just type in "Accord open y-pipe" in the search bar.

All of you have lots of sweet and sick mods done to your TLs'. I brought mine from Japan when I was stationed there in the Navy. Has a tiny bit more power than the ones built here, but mine offered the shawd as standard, then again, i bought it where they build them. I am limited in my knowledge as a moder of this car, Any info on how to make it better,stronger and faster will be installed in it. I have only installed a drop in K&N and removed the exhaust resonator and third muffler. Is there a performance tune that can be done for some more power and a limiter removal trick?, I DO NOT AGREE with that bullshit and so called GENTLEMANS' agreement that the TUV and Japanese emporer put out when it comes to fast ass cars. You know, the limiter that cant be bypassed that so many often do?!?!?! HELP please, thank you for all the great ideas and mod hints. Keep em' coming!!

Yeah, I'm not sure what car you have, but if it's a TL and you got it from Japan, it was imported there, not built there:

Starting with this generation, this model was not sold in Japan, with the Honda Inspire holding the position of entry level luxury sedan below the Honda Legend in Japan.
