My Bad Ass TL



Check it out every body! I love this Car! I am going to add pictures tomorrow of the system I built for it myslef! That is what I do for a living! And if anyone is near where I live and they want something like this in there TL let me know!! I am putting a Comptech exhaust on it this monday, and the new supercharger that just came out next month! I am pumped! That will add an extra 70-80 horsepower to the pavement!!

Looks good Now, details...% tint, wheels (and specs), system specs, other mods. Going out on a limb, I'm going to say 20% and Axis Hiro's.

Okay guys,I put a couple pictures of the system in! The lighting wasnt that great, so I will try some more later! Plus I need to take some from the inside of the car! Inside the box is two 10 inch alpine type R's! And I have port holes shooting through the ski pass of the car! The bass sounds great!

Sweet looking ride man. What type of polish/wax do you use? Did you do your system yourself. Your trunk looks great.

I like it!

I cant remember exactly how much I paid for the body kit! I will try to find the receipt! I did the system myself, and I was very pleased with how it turned out!!

Thanks guys! Comptech exhaust just came in today, and it is going on first thing in the morning! I want to figure out a way to make it so I can keep the same tips! Because I think the comptech ones look out of place!

It'll be somewhat difficult unless you'r a master weldsman. comptech exhaust outlet is 4 inches. stock tips are about 2.25 inches....

if you try to keep the oem tips your wasting some of the money you spent on the comptech exhaust. having large pipe flowing out of 2.25 exhaust tips will cut your whp. from the 7.5 it boast. if you already bought the c/t i would suggest going with their tips or maybe trying to bore out the oem tips..

Yeah, the exhaust went on today! It looks great! When the weather gets better, I will take some pictures! I take back wanting to keep the OEM tips! The Comptech ones are bad ass!!! Its sounds great too! Not to loud, not to quiet! Its perfect! Now I just need to buy the supercharger! That will almost put me at 350 horsepower!

Well the guy from comptech said that there is a good chance that it wouldnt even void the warranty! I know that sounds kind of crazy! So I am going to look into it more! He said it doesnt put anymore ware on the engine then it does at stock! If it does void it, I will wait a little while! I already have 20,000 miles on my car! I have only had it for 9 months too!! What can I say, I love to drive it!!
