Workable...until the first time someone is driving his car and gets cut off. That I'd like to see. The facial expression alone would be awesome.

 

Mines would be something along these lines

Anyone got PreCat deletes? Was looking at RV6 ones but they look like a bitch to install. RV6 PCat's Jpipe & Greddy?

 

^ Just get the RV6 true dual exhaust and you're set!

 

Good video comparison HeelToe did on the RV6 and ATLP J-pipe!

 

Don't really like the look of their exhaust, The stock Dual look really nice, But there is little sound to them. I'm interested in Greddy cause nobody has it cause it seems "Ricey" but sounds good when combined with some other parts.


That video was a good comparison. I Ordered one of those two, So many parts coming in for in right now. Not looking forward to paying the Broker/GST when these arrive!

 

First batch of parts from HeelToe came in. Also got some group-buy items before the listed deadline. Skunk2 front camber kit, Ingalls rear camber, CT-Engineering short shifter, Hybird Racing shifter bushings, FLP high flow cat, NGK laser iridium spark plugs.

 

@Mitchell - The KBP TL-S I detailed this past summer had the greddy exhaust. That thing was quite loud.

@EdmTSX - Getting parts in is always such a nice feeling lol. I feel like a kid in a candy store whenever I get to open up a box that contains parts or supplies.

 

^ Did it sound good? Aslong as it doesn't make it sound like a civic I may buy it

 

look on youtube what it sounds like. Personally, I wouldn't buy that for a type s. Type s has dual tip and I would stick with that. I also wouldn't even buy an exhaust for this car, I would get it custom made for cheaper, but that's just me. All exhaust is, is piping and mufflers. I priced out an exhaust for my TL and it came at 650$ with dual tips, magnaflow mufflers (never heard those sound bad), and properly bent piping and welding from an exhaust shop localy. There is plenty of TLs running magnaflow setup and they all sound sexy as hell.

 

I've listened to a few of those TL exhaust sounds on youtube this past year, always liked the sound of the TLs. From the videos, I personally like the ATLP quad exhaust look and sound, magna flow ( what myron suggested), the greddy is ok and even on a TSX it's super loud (heard it in person when I bought parts off a guy in Vancouver) If you are too lazy to find the videos, here you go!

 

I Do like the sound of Magnaflow, Could i still keep my stock tips? What shop could I have this done at?

 

Greddy actually sounds good from that video. I got my front windows tinted today, I told them to match my rear tint. Vince will be proud of me. lol

 

What % tint did you get?


oh my.

 

Wait....

 

^20% all around. That video of the KBP with custom exhaust sounds beastly. You will love the RV6 Jpipe, I just love mine.

 

Nice! Dark tint on White car is win! Any pictures?

 

@Mitchell - Nice pick up! I remember watching that video too, sounds sick.

What low profile/floor jacks do you guys use? I need to pick one up that will go higher than 14" so I can use my jack stands and install my High Flow Cat..

 

I have the one from canadian tire, motomaster i believe. It's low pro but it barely cleared my car when I installed my jpipe. It's not going to raise it that much so you have to play with jackstands

 

@Mitchell - Yeah I'm not a big fan of the sound the Greddy exhaust puts out. The custom magnaflow exhaust sounds the best to me. I saw that video a while ago and almost pulled the trigger on an exhaust but again, won't be doing performance upgrades for this ride.
Also, saw your sig saying you sold the NBP. Nice!

@Arthur - WELL DONE! It's time for a black roof now lol.

@EdmTSX - I have this one : http://www.princessauto.com/pal/prod...eel-Floor-Jack
It's low profile but doesn't raise the rear high enough to put the jack stands on. When I swapped to winter tires, I had to do the rears one side at a time. I can't go back to a steel one after using an aluminum one. The weight difference is ridiculous.

 

Thanks for the suggestions, I went to Costco today and bought a Torin 2.5 Ton Aluminum low-profile floor jack for $100. Raises it up to 18", my jack stands are minimum 14" so it works for me lol


http://www.costco.ca/Browse/Product....524&lang=en-CA


anyone want to install my camber/teins for me? :P

 

Nice I actually wanted to get that Torin jack at first but they didn't carry it at the Costco I went to so I just got the one at princess auto.

 

Soo after installing my JPipe over the weekend, Don't really notice a big difference, You can feel the gains at 5k rpm. Also can see how better the flow is when revving gains/drops quicker.

Got a "Lowering Device" on its way to me now!

Sidenote, Should have a Wintermode meet. We can do comparisons to see who has the best winter tires? haha

 

O rly? Which "lowering device" did you get? I've been tempted to switch my winter tires off but the temperatures are still a bit cool in the morning and night. Plus there are still the random warnings here and there of snowfall overnight lol.

 

I was thinking about switching mine off too. Drove through the worst part of the winter with them why stop now haha.

Was looking into air ride but didn't wanna pay the price for.
Got some nice coils can go 3" down and adjustable, who can guess? :}

 

^ megans? I think those are the only ones that go that low.

 

Off topic question, for you guys who do your own oil changes, where do you dispose the old oil?

You're tearing through these mods like nothing. Very nice

My guess would be, the new XLR8 coilovers?

 

Myron had it, Megan's but after getting a email that Id have to wait a month for them to get to me I canceled Gonna either go with those new XLR8s or HT Spec 2 Adjusti's

 

Mitchell are you going to get your coils installed at Ricky's shop again? If so, hit me up and maybe I can join in and get mine installed at the same time

 

There is a thread about the season opened meet, any of you guys going? I am going just to see some nice cars, but most of you should go and show off your cars. I think it's on May 5th

- VINCE - you should install those coils and slam that sucker to the ground, and run those wide spacers you have with stock wheels, sexy

 

Is it a 780tuners meet? I might go..hopefully my mods will be on by then..

Can ricky's shop install my coils too? haha :P

 

well yea it's posted up on 780 but last year there was more guys than just 780 guys. It's not like a typical 780 friday meet

 

I'll be going to the opener for sure and even the calgary driven. But i'm not sure if i'm bringing the car.

 

Ahh I see..for some reason my home IP address is banned at 780tuners site haha no idea why.

@ Arthur - you should bring your car! haha

 

Lolol too much trolling?
I won't be able to make the meet since I'll be on vacation.

Haha yeah I'm going to see if I can get by with a 1 finger gap and throw all four spacers on. I'd drive it for a few days and see how drive able it is being slammed. I already spot a crap load of pot holes all over the place
I'll definitely be doing the front grille delete this summer. Will be ordering the grille and CF vinyl from metrorestyling soon.

Does anyone have a soldering iron? I got my resistor and rear LEDs in. I want to see if soldering back in the OEM resistor will fix my interior light issue and if the 0.22ohm resistor will prevent hyperflashing when I have switchbacks up front and leds in the rear.

 

haha I rarely go on the forums, I go to see what rims they have on sale that's about it soo no idea =/

 

What is 780tuners? Or is it secret/exclusive enough that if you tell me, you'd have to kill me immediately after?

 

Thats what I used todo but since its a good 40% Civics all the rims are 14-17"x 4 Bolt. I gave up

Vince- Ricky & Me work in same shop, Hes about 100x more knowledgeable about all this then I am though, and has all right tools

780Tuner is the Edmonton rice files to but it short

 

LOL oh I didn't know you two worked together. Hit me up when you decide to do the coilover install?
