Successful exhaust system

after seeing people question what to do with their exhaust system so often i thought i would make a thread on what i did and how it came out

i have a 2005 Acura tl. today i modded the stock exhaust system. i wanted something deep and also wanted some volume. i decided to replace the stock resonator with a magnaflow resonator. then i removed the mid muffler and replaced it with straight pipe. and then i removed the stock rear mufflers and put in magnaflow mufflers. all piping was done with stainless steel pipe.

it sounds awesome. very deep and has great volume. i am very happy with it. the only problem i have is that it is really loud when accelerating and then i hit a certain point and it gets much quieter, but even then it still sounds good so i cant complain

Glad to see others doing this mod. I did it over 2 years now with no regrets. The tone does get a little deeper over time
