Thank you! Where in NC are you located? There's a meet in Charlotte on the 6th. You should try to make it out there.

Thanks! I'm really happy with it. All I have is the catback, the J-pipe and cats are stock. I was thinking about going full ATLP J-Pipe and Race Pipe but honestly this is loud enough.

No problem

Honestly dude I think you have the cleanest car on AZ. The only problem with COTM is that the pictures posted don't justify anyones car. It's only the first month so hopefully the problems can get worked out for the months to come

Thanks Craig! The sound is intoxicating to say the least. I was averaging 23 mpg city until I got it installed. Now my MID says I'm down to 18

There's a slight chance of rain today but if it holds out, I'm going to clean the car and take some proper photos.

Damn you went through the WHOLE THING? How bored were you?

Thanks for doing that though, I'm glad it's just not here for people to go to the last page.

I bet you do Alex!

Thanks again for driving over to Cary and doing the swap with me. I know you probably never envisioned yourself getting rid of it, but at least you know it's in good hands

Welcome! And thanks!

Alex has J-Pipe, Race Pipe, and Pre-Cat deletes. His car flies.

And what's wrong with a 1990 Caravan? Huh????

If it were anyone else I would be pissed, but since my car sounds baller because of you (or should I say your girlfriend), I guess it's okay

Thanks Morgan! I hope the weather holds out for the meet

Thank you sir! I've always wanted some ATLP in my life but my finances weren't allowing me to do so. I've been saving for the last few months and Alex gave me a deal that I couldn't pass up.

Set aside an hour or two one night and make a progress thread! They can get time consuming pretty easily but it's fun to go back and see how far your car has come.

Thanks AJ! I absolutely love the exhaust. I think you would love it.



Well I got on iMovie last night and couldn't figure out how to cut/crop different clips made during the install yesterday. I got pissed off and said the hell with it, so nothing is edited. The commentary is made by Alex, the one who sold me the exhaust.

The quality is downright terrible and I apologize. I was using an old ass digital camera with the front faceplate falling off. Anyways here you go:

I was under the impression that an aftermarket exhaust would actually increase mpg, right??

iTrader: (3)

Since it is less restrictive than stock, yes, but I've been flooring it everywhere to hear my car sing

Thanks Faiz! It's nowhere close to what your TL was, but it will get there eventually.

Thank you sir!

Thanks Bee! I'm really happy with the purchase.

I've driven almost 60 miles since it was put on the car yesterday and I can't get enough of it. Even my parents and girlfriend like it. Well Mitzi said it's a bit too loud but she can deal with it

I haven't gotten a speeding ticket since I was 16 (knock on wood) and I hope to keep it that way. I usually accelerate quickly but I'm not one to go 20 over the speed limit. 7-10 over is where I tend to stay.

It finally stopped raining so I was able to go outside and take a few shots. The car is filthy but you get the point.









Hay is all over my yard because we put down seed.

Damn Tyler. That seriously completes the look of your car soo well. Sounds badass also. I can see why you've been getting shitty mileage numbers.

Congrats on the purchase. Just a cherry on the cake. How are the acoustics of the ATLP inside the car?

Thanks Steven! Is Santa bringing you a set of RJs for Christmas this year?



1. Thanks! I have too many shoes to keep up with

2. Thanks again! WDP FTW!

3. Thanks once again! I love it too! I can't get enough of it

I'm really happy with the progress I've made with my car in just over two years. I never would have thought MY TL would look anything like this. I'm pleased to say the least

Thanks queer

Thanks Craig! I was at 23mpg, dipped down to 18, and now back to 20. The exhaust sounds the best between 2k-3k rpm so I don't have to floor it everywhere for it to sound good.

It's louder inside of the car than I thought it would be, but I like it that way. I feel like I'm getting my money's worth that way haha. Mitzi (my girlfriend) says it's a bit too loud for her tastes but she still likes it. Her brother just about busted a nut when he heard it for the first time

I'm glad I'm not the only one who does that! Thank you sir!

Thanks Jon! I wanted to go the Quad route but getting the rear Type-S lip was out of my budget. I'll have the car nice and clean for the meet. I'm looking forward to checking out your GS

I actually don't mind it Chris! I like when it's throaty without having to floor it. At least I won't get drool on your exhaust next time I see it up at North Hills



I was able to break out the camera and take a few more clips of the exhaust. Like I've said before, my video camera is old and terrible so you may want to turn up the volume. Enjoy ...

And when the dude in the last video says "ooo that sounds so good" I started dying laughing Dunno why though

Keep on keepin' on, bro

I was thinking the same .

Hey Tyler I see you also added something to your signature.

Sounds wicked Tyler! Much better then mine at low RPMs haha glad your enjoying it!

Thanks John! I hope you're able to make it to C&C.

The guy making the commentary is Alex, the one who I got the exhaust from. He's a fucking clown so when I was watching the videos for the first time and heard what he was saying, I wasn't surprised

Which one are you talking about? Alpine? I have a 12" Type-R in the trunk and forgot about it

Once I added ATLP to the list, my OCD kicked in and I had to put it in alphabetical order. That's just how I do it.

Thank you sir! I've been enjoying your progress thread. Keep it clean man!

Mine isn't raspy

I absolutely love it man. Thanks again for making the drive over.


I skipped my first class today and finally cleaned the car. Here are some overexposed pictures:









My favorite picture and my soon to be new iPhone wallpaper:



After my last class today I'm heading down to the beach for the weekend. I hope to get some more pictures and videos of the whip

Tyler, no RJ's for me this holiday season. I'm staying with the OEM wheels. The last mod I did was 30 days ago. I installed the Amp'd Emblem lighted logo on the front grill. It looks really good-not too bright, but understated and not ricey at all. Honestly, I'm pretty much done with mods. I'd like to lower my Type S, but I can't see spending $1,000 for a 1-2 inch drop.

When did your whore ass hit 10k posts?

I hear you Steven. As long as you keep it clean, I won't bug you too much about the wheel gap

Thanks I appreciate it! The sound is intoxicating.

Agreed Sean. I love it.

Thank you Eric! I'll continue modding if you send me some money! I'll give you my PayPal or you can just give me your bronze Works

Thanks man! I look forward to checking out your car and hearing your exhaust set up sometime.

Thank you

Thanks Roger! I was at Monroe Muffler and Brake Service over in Crossroads. It's connected to BJ's over behind Jack Astors. They did the exhaust swap for $80 and they took us an hour earlier than I scheduled it.

Thanks Al I appreciate it man! I'm looking forward to checking out your ride in a few weeks

^Tyler i only payed $40 for my installation at the same place. I know a guy there and got the hook up
