btw i'd have to be smoking some good shit (or have money hanging out of my ass) if i wanted to spend $600 for just 1-2hp. it's not just about horsepower.
Sound: Greddy evo has louder and deeper sound than Comptech.. but not VERy loud...
it s loud enough for u hear inside the car and NOT loud enough to receive a ticket...
Price: i can get Greddy Evo Dual catback for AV6 FOR LESS THAN 700.... and how much is comptech? 1G? correct me if im wrong....

and? i've also heard the hks. they sound about the same. the exhaust note is just right on both systems. any louder would be considered rice on the cl. from your perspective, our "pussy pipes" create the same aggressive exhaust tone without the need of a 4.5" pipe.
same with the comptech's. same with any aftermarket exhaust bolted onto a 3.2 liter V6. (it will sound sporty, but not too loud)
the greddy evo mufflers alone retail for $1100 (and i thought comptech's were a rip-off...i learn something new everyday). i couldn't imagine how much retail for a CATBACK is. not everyone has the hookup, so good for you. i don't know what you were smoking when looking at prices, but pass me some, cause the comptech mufflers are readily available at www.autocarparts.com for $600 ($670 retail).

so ur say Greddy Evo is rice ? nigga pleaaaase..... ppl use that term just too frequently......if u think comptech is perfect for CL... then y the hell u even change the exhaust??? stock ones r ok already.... and btw: HKS is LOUDER than comptech.... but not by much.... HKS sounds the same as greddy
Greddy evo might be too big for a civic or something but not for CLS....Comptech looks like someone bought some 2" chrome tips from pepboyz.. just IMO tho..
u think CLS is a CL500 or something??? it s not REAL LUXURY CAR and IT S NOT A TRUE SPORT car either.... just a better tuned with better interior AV6 coupe....so dont think CLS is too luxurious for exhausts......
as for hook ups... if u really want something and u dont have that much $$.. u can ask ur friends who like cars for hook ups.. i m pretty sure some of ur friends got hook ups....

Why are you all arguing in this thread that I put pics in. I know some people like it and some don't. I posted pics of it since some people were wanting to know what it looks like.
Please stop this childish whining.
Thanks

and chill with the racial slurs, i know it's a common phrase, but in this case it makes you seem very childish.

those look hot....i actually just got the Thermal R&D Catback exhaust for mine and i love it. Now that you mention it, it does feel like it shifts a little smoother.

Revving at 9K...
I actually met up with 2003CLS this weekend, and checked out his exhaust. It sounds pretty good. Personally I probably will never put any on my ride, but I have to say that I've heard Mattg's Comptach also, and to compare, they both sounds good. At low RPM with the music up, you don't even notice it. IMO.

I have just 2 stainless universal mufflers with 3" tips and they sound amazing! Especially with the intake too. I've gotten a lot of compliments and only set me back $175!

[B]Hey everyone. I finally got my Dual GReddy Evo exhaust on my car. It sounds great, not too loud. A little louder than Comptech, IMO. Let me know what ya think.
PS: Please don't tell me to lower my car. I am waiting for the Eibach kit to be released for the 2003 model
Exhaust looks good. I won't tell you to lower your car. Just, that i have an '03 myself, and the Eibach kit for '01 through '03 is the same. I have the Eibachs on mine now, here's a pic below.

this is a little off topic but does anyone know if we can get an exhaust like this put on our cars and keep our stock tips, personally i like the way the oval ones look better and to someone that didnt know our cars already look like they have an exhaust

The only time its quiet is at idle and you still hear a mmmm from the rear of the car, outside of course, and on the highway cruising. But anytime you are on the gas, you hear it. It probably increased its sound about 5x what it was. I had Greddy on my Maxima, this is much louder now.

come and hear my Greddy with obx header... my rear view mirror shakes when the car is in idle...
i think Greddy evo with header sounds different wtih HKS with header.. cuz i dont know.. maybe one is full catback and one is axle?

there are really no gains to be had w/ an axleback system on these cars.

Having joined this forum only a month ago, I can say this...Its almost like everybody has some thing to say Negative about someones ride...Posts are always prefaced by "your wheels suck"...Just my opinoin..."Comptech is lame my exhuast is better".in my opinion...etc. Why dont we all just say hety Nice Car' ask pertenant questions as to the asthetic and performance values of the upgrades and STOP the petty bickering...I confess I fell into the trap myself..but will make a definate effort to stop the madness!

it is common knowledge on these forums, that axleback exhausts just don't make much hp gains. i am not trying to be negative, i am trying to share some of this knowledge w/ you.
if you discover otherwise, plz let us know.
and to the other newbie: you act like you have never been on internet forums before. there will always be a few people on here that say things you may not like. thats how it goes.
i tend to think our mods do a pretty good job though

I read in an issue of either SCC or SS that GReddy Evo did gain 10whp, this was on an Accord though.
Guys, please stop your bickering in my thread, the reason why I posted pics was to let everyone see them and to voice their opinions, I did NOT post them to have you all arguing about axleback to catback exhausts. If you want to do that, please start another thread.
Thanks
