with my setup my gas mileage increased. 34mpg @ 60mph. 32mpg @ 65mph

mmade22 02-11-2009 08:51 PM

Nice to see that Mike is getting another beautiful set of exhaust for you guys. My rear aspec lip is arriving tomorrow so I will post pictures in my thread of us cutting my base rear bumer to fit the lip. 283 shipped is a pretty good deal considering it was 320 from the local dealer. I know you can get plenty of guys to get a group buy. Good luck and check my thread out tomorrow night.

TLNY04 02-11-2009 08:55 PM

yea i would love to see another thread on cutting the back bumper please post one up so i dont mess mine up

TLheaven 02-12-2009 12:00 AM

^^ I agree, if someone could make a detailed how-to thread with pictures that would be awesome!

JD TL-S 02-12-2009 04:32 AM

Dremel tool I guess. It would be great to see a detailed cut video, or pics.

Already got myself sbscribed to your thread! I've been waiting so I can do up this atlp proper! I'd like to see what happens with that lower middle part of the lip.

mmade22 02-12-2009 10:18 AM

I will have it up in my stock tl to type s exhaust thread by the end of the day as I am waiting for the lip to arrive today.

jweb12 02-12-2009 10:56 AM

^ I don't even have to do this and I'm looking forward to seeing your install pics. Like most people here, I envy your garage.

mmade22 02-12-2009 08:29 PM

Since a lot of you guys on here are in need of pictures to see what is involved in getting the Type-S skirt on the base TL bumper, I decided to do a DIY for ya.

Enjoy fellas

lol...I'm in for the a-spec lip but i have an off-topic comment too tell you guys!
-last night i was rolling on the 118 freeway with my bro and his TSX and this 15 psi turbo charged Chevy Cobalt stepped up too me! Due too its turbo and really loud blow of valve i thought i wouldn't have a chance.Long story short...I owned his a** with his girlfriend in the car! hahaha...I guess my TL was proving that it deserves the ATLP Exhaust!:uzi:

I thought you said you were with your brother in the TSX? You must have been in your TL and HE is in his TSX.

tldrummer89 02-13-2009 12:39 PM

haha...yeah i meant too say that i was in my TL and he was in his TSX. He was left behind though...he could keep up with me!:tomato: (he's modded too)

ReplayMan 02-13-2009 01:12 PM

You guys like the flat tips? I'm not a fan. I was part of the last batch and decided when I install the exhaust this weekend...to have Kooks hack off the tips and weld some angled ones on. Have it look stock. Anybody want my my tips?

tldrummer89 02-13-2009 01:55 PM

I'm in ^ How much are you asking for the tips?
(ReplayMan)

ReplayMan 02-13-2009 02:02 PM

I'll keep you posted....depends where they're cut and how much is left.

jweb12 02-13-2009 02:33 PM

^ Not a fan of your idea, but that's personal preference. If I were you, I'd talk with Mike before hacking the tips just because he could give you better feedback as to how well your plan will actually work. A better option would be to see if you could get a set of mufflers off of him that don't have tips welded on yet (the atlp base exhaust uses the same mufflers and he may be able to set aside a set during the upcoming run of these). That way you could do what you are proposing much more cleanly. Not to mention that you could easily sell the mufflers w/ tips to somebody that actually wants these.

tldrummer89 02-13-2009 02:57 PM

-ReplayMan
sounds good, just keep me posted or private message me.:thumbsup:
(btw...jweb12's idea about just selling the mufflers is good too)

chuanger 02-13-2009 03:47 PM

IMO, the tips are what makes the ATLP Quad THE ATLP Quad. There is so much attention to detail on these tips, they're amazing! If you don't like the tips, i'd do what jweb suggested. Speak with Mike about exchanging them out for mufflers without any tips welded on. That'll be a much better option than hacking them off.

What a waste of a great thing. If you want stock, keep your oem exhaust and mod it for the level of sound you want. It's your car but man, this exhaust is perfect the way it is......:whyme:

TLAdvanced 02-13-2009 06:57 PM

Or, if you want the more stock look sell the ATLP and buy and Excelerate quad exhaust. Somebody would be VERY happyto take the ATLP off your hands...

Sounds like a GREAT idea.:thumbsup:

Sell the ATLP quad exhaust and buy the XLR8 quad exhaust. :toocool:

I'm really surprised you guys like the straight cut tips. I think they are ugly. And, I love the rest of the ATLP set-up too much to leave my in my oem exhaust. It's too good not to have. 2 1/2 mandrel-bent piping, the mufflers are top-notch. Sorry, I just prefer the stock tips I guess.

Hey I am interested in your mufflers, can't send pms yet. Can you pm me your aim or email so we can chat?

I think Mike would be offended if you do hack up the tips.

Welcome to the forums.

You can't receive PM's either, and he can't send you an email if you don't post your email address.

How did the switch go? Did you just reuse the stock tips?
