Sounds good! Keep me posted, please.

 

Hey - my new quad tips are suppose to arrive this week. You think you can see if he's available Saturday afternoon around 2 or 3?

Maybe I can meet up with Frantz over there

 

I used Lou's in Worcester. Did a true duel on my old 95 bronco

 

Quad tips will look nice on the SSM. Do you have any other mods planned?

 

bottom exhaust was courtesy of Lou's in Fitchburg (bastards welded my exhaust into one piece), top one was D-Rob from Innovative Motorworks.

 

Nah, just probably smaller things here and there. Trying to save money. I already have all the mods i wanted and I'm pretty happy with the vehicle

 

Nothing wrong with that at all

I'm definitely looking forward to all meets this year.

 

Franchise and Mike-
I just talked to Joe at Lou's...They don't do saturdays...so anytime during the week, just give them a call and ask for Joe. Mention "James" and hopefully he'll take care of you guys! Call ahead of time since they usually are busy.

 

Weekdays

I'm off Monday so I'll try and call them today. Hopefully they can fit me in then

 

i need new mufflers welded on, how much do they usually charge ?

 

do i see a muffler shop mini meet in the near future ? hahaha

 

It appears so

 

$85 an hour but talk to joe...He'll give you a good estimate and if the price seems too high, he'll knock off some...like I said, mention James referred you guys cause I already gave him a heads up..I don't know how much he'll help you guys out but he'll def hook it up as much as possible! Plus, they do awesome welds...

 

^ how's your new exhaust sound???

 

Sounds good! Surprised it had more throatyniess and deep tone...I took out resonator so its louder but not bad! Joe was smart (another reason you guys should go to him), the muffler I ordered had 4in tips but since my oem muffler was oval tipped and was 6in wide and 4in tall, the muffler I bought didn't fill the oval gap as nice so they decided to place the muffler at a slant so that visually, it looks better! Next sat, you'll hear it in person..otherwise, go to the rl forum and check out jbao's rl and I got some clips

 

damn...too bad he's only open weekdays........i'd have to take a half day from work sometime....

 

mine sounds like a straight pipe. cop asked me if i knew how loud mine was, i told him no. he asked me if i wanted to swap cars with him, i would have been driving driving his cop car. but i didnt take the offer. isnt it illegal to operate a licensed police vehicle? i should have lol, shit.... i would have pulled him over driving my car. lol

 

I would have taken the offer...or maybe not. LOL

Btw, I paid $250 for my mufflers welded...he had to fabricate pipes for the bend and put in new hanger..$125 each side. Forgot they warranty their work for a year.

 

was it mandrel bent or cush bent pipes? i had my exhaust done at lou's in worcestor, they said they dont do mandrel, so crush was my only option. paid 600 for complete ss catback, with my provided mufflers/tips/resonator.

 

i am pretty sure mandrel bend. He never mentioned that he had to crush bend. I'll look underneath my car tomorrow..he would have explained if he had to crush bend it

 

thats a pretty good price...

if it was mandrel bend pipes then thats a really good price....I never seen a Lous custom exhaust that did mandrel bend, if so I will have to keep them in mind for the future for sure!!

 

ya..I need to double check first tho! they angled my muffler a little slanted so the exhaust tip can fill my oval slot from the bumper...so that helped minimize the bend...would have been a little more he said if the muffler was positioned just straight out.

These guy do madrel bends for sure...doubting lou's do mandrel now but I'll check haha

 

Yeah Definately find out if yours is mandrel, those 90 degree crush bends are shitty. It's looks it makes a 2.5" pipe into a 2". I called bsm a while back, they said they don't do custom exhaust anymore. They just sell things.

 

What's up fella's. Just thought I'd introduce myself. Ive been using the 3G TL page mostly and am glad to see such a good sized crew reppin Bean town. I grew up around Natick/Framingham. Live downtown now. Looking forward to the April meet out by the amc theatre.

 

Question... Anybody know a good place that does exhaust around town. I'm looking to get some kind of J-pipe

 

Welcome to the forums! Hopefully we'll see you at some of the meets we have planned. Do you have pics of your TL to post in here?

A few of us are hunting for an exhaust shop for some work as well. Do you have a j-pipe already? Or do you still need to buy one?

 

Thanks man. J-pipe is exactly what I had in mind.

 

I was leaning toward the xlr8. Any opinions??

 

They're good but I like the ATLP

 

I'm sitting on an RV6 V3....hopefully it'll be installed soon

 

Boston crew, let's go rep Azine at the CCSU show. April 21st!

 

Hey everyone I'm a newbie. How's it going

 

Hey welcome to Azine. What's your name, what do you drive?

 

Names ray. Drive a 2011 Rdx and a 2012 mdx

 

Welcome to the forums Ray

 

Welcome man. Hope to see you at some meets.

 

I'll be at the April meet. How often do we meet. Do u guys meet up to work on each others cars.

 

Im sure some peeps do. But I'm not a mechanic.

 

Did you pull the trigger on a j-pipe yet?
