Sorry to hear. At least you have the option to go w/ type s bumber. Me, on the other hand, can not go w/ anyhting else but RJ bumper due to being 1.5 inch lower than the A-spec kit. It will not look leveled.LOL

Yea you can mod the bumper to fit the exhaust. If your going to mod the bumper you should look into getting the rear aspec. If your not going with aspec your better off buying a type s bumper.

Man- some people just don't get it. This thread is about the XLR8 group buy. Like Josh says- if you want to debate the pros and cons of someones quad exhaust, there are other forums.

PS- Any word yet Josh?

at work and say "WTF is this that just came for you"??

Please let us know how it compares sound wise to the Magnaflow setup. Did you get the resonated or the non res?

I have videos of the Magnaflow on youtube (under dragonlord0262). I will post videos on youtube and Acurazine after the install. I ordered the non-res. Hopefully I will geet mine installed before Tim and be the first() RJ/XLR8 NR on the forum.

LOL, you got me there. That was my plan about the turbo. Doing it my self.

I was about to get the SC, but because of $$$, I decided not too. And I was going to install it myself. Shops in Chicago are asking $800 for installation. That is ridiculous.

Ive heard Continental Acura in Naperville does install mods. I think theyve even installed comptech superchargers...dont quote me on that. Maybe you could ask them abuot install prices (dealer, i know...)? just a thought.

The exhausts are being built. I'm expecting at least a couple of the orders to trickle out by the end of this week but that isn't a guarantee.
