...so yes, as i'm local I went over to see Mr. Heeltoe himself this weekend.

Let me start by saying that I am so much more than satisfied with the look, sound, and fit of the exhaust, not to mention the quality service I received from Marcus.

Here's a few pics of the unit.



As you can see, the materials look very good right out of the box. LOVE the finish on it.





Here you can see it all bolted up underneath. Everything is tucked neatly right where it should be. No fitment issues or adjustments needed at all.





Close view of the tip spaced neatly up to the bumper. Again, this fits very well!





An angled view down low:





Top angle. Sits nice IMO.





And here's the mug shot and profile.







The exhaust adds a nice depth to the tone. It does give it a nice growl/rumble, yet there is NO drone or excessive cruising noise whatsoever!

No angry wives with this mod.

I'd highly reccomend this unit if anyone out there is on the fence.

I also got an intake mainifold gasket/heatshield done by Marcus while I was there (Heeltoe had the gasket in stock!!), and the ETS intercooler.

The gasket looks to be a very worthwhile investment, particularly since I travel to the desert fairly regularly (Dry, 100-110+, and high elevation to boot). I'll try and upload a pic of the differences in the gaskets.

The car feels very...awake. Very healthy. It can breath. Pulls strong, like on a cool winter night.

Once again. EXTREMELY satisfied with the ATLP exhaust in all aspects.

I've had experience with HKS Ca Ti, Greddy, Sebring in the past. ATLP Quality is 2nd to none...and the finish is just as good or nicer than those I mentioned.

That's very nice craftsmanship on the pipes

Looks good, BH! Can't go wrong with dual-walled slash-cut tips. Piping is 2.5" right?

I've seen the stock intake manifold gasket, which is multi-layered steel. Anything but steel sounds good. Pics of the intake mainifold gasket/heatshield please!

We should meet up sometime.

Thanks Carlos for the great reply!


I am all about this gasket install guys. I banged it out pretty fast so it is a no-headache mod for us.

BU

Are we talking about Hondata Gasket ?

MrHeeltoe

iTrader: (1)

Yes....well, we installed a P2R one on Carlos' car. But same thing.

The exhaust looks great, all. The ECU work will be first for me, but I'll be interested in the next go around. Congrats on a nice product.

Wow...the exhaust looks great and sounds amazing!!! MrHeelToe....is this going to stay in stock now or be made to order?

MrHeeltoe

I am going to try and keep some in stock from now on. We have 2 systems right now for the 07-09, one of which is pending sold. We have 2 systems as well with no tips, waiting for a local 10-12 to come by for some testing of new tip designs. When we get one we will start working on a downpipe as well.

OK HERE GOES NOTHING. I am not really knowledgeable about repairs and mechanics. I have some questions on this system.

1) I am first wondering can I get it shipped to Canada, specifically Newfoundland.

2) I have a 2007 stock RDX. Was thinking about adding this system and the K&N air filter. From what I read I should see no compatibility issues.

3) What is the cost of the exhaust system.

4) Can most mechanics, or myself, install this relatively easily.

5) What can I expect in performance gains realistically.

Thank you. I am quite interested in this upgrade

MrHeeltoe

iTrader: (1)

1) Yes, you can. You should be able to get a shipping cost online.
2) Correct.
3) See it here: http://www.heeltoeauto.com/atlp-cat-...acura-rdx.html
4) Yes
5) I would say 10-15 hp at least.

Vividsi

how does inventory look on the exhaust? i just bought an 09 rdx

MrHeeltoe

iTrader: (1)

We spoke on the phone just the other day. Limited amount left, only two kits I think...

s2000rdx

What is the total cost? I would need it shipped to 60031

MrHeeltoe

iTrader: (1)

You can get pricing in the checkout area on the site. We actually ran out but will be shipping more in a couple months.

Gaboyos

Bump from the dead. Mr heeltoe Im just wondering if you have any exhaust on stock? 07 RDX owner by the way.

Vividsi

I dont think they do but I have mine on back order.

Gaboyos

How long has it been now?

Vividsi

maybe 2 weeks, im not really expecting to get it untill march or april.

Gaboyos

I really don't mind waiting. I was more concerned with if it was still being made. Did you have to pay in full or just a deposit?

Vividsi

oh yes, they plan on making some by first quarter 2013, they allowed me to pay when they have it ready to ship.

BigHatch

Gaboyos

Awesome! Ill be giving them a call.

Vividsi

good, maybe your commitment will speed the process.

MrHeeltoe

iTrader: (1)

Yes the only thing preventing this kit from being produced again immediately is we need some more backorders. Really 3-4 would do it.

Vividsi

should we start a new group buy for this? I already know I have my order in.

Gaboyos

I see. In that case I rather buy the intercooler and reflash for now. I won't sit on the money waiting for three more people to take interest. In any case I'll add my name to the list. I should have the money by the time you guys have enough people to fab them.

Gaboyos

Vividsi

I really want this exhaust system, can anybody step up to the plate here?

RDX_NRG

how easy is this of a DIY?

I perform my own fluid changes, painted my calipers (front & back), changed to CP-E cold air, and changed to an ETS TMIC.

What i couldn't do myself is change the intake heat shield gasket.

Given what i have done myself, is my skill level adequate enough to change out the exhaust myself?

BigHatch

yes, jack up the car and unbolt the exhaust. everything fits right where it should.

RDX_NRG

I'm in on an exhaust system then! so i guess that makes 3 of us now for the group buy..

is the group buy still going ahead? and at what reduced price?

Vividsi

great news, just add yourself to the group buy list here and let heeltoe know that you want to place your order, as far as the price goes that will stay the same, we just need enough buyers to make them justify production.

RDX_NRG

1. vividsi
2. gaboyos
3. RDX_NRG

Here is the list i have for pre-orders.. i will also PM Mr.heeltoe

Vividsi

will 3 do it heeltoe? or do we need 4?

MrHeeltoe

iTrader: (1)

I'd be much happier with 4-5. We are planning to produce this kit in the next few weeks regardless.

RDX_NRG

thats good news heeltoe about producing the exhausts regardless.

How do we put our names on the list? should we purchase them through your online store asap?

Vividsi

thats what I did.
