Question for NA1 owners with 02+ rear valance & aftermarket exhaust

**Danny** · 12-16-2006, 06:59

Ok...I'm in the planning stages for finally breaking down and modifying my 91 NSX

Exhaust is definitley high on the list, most likely a Taitec GTLW.....my question is....If I switch to the 02+ rear valance will I have issues with installing a GTLW for a 91 with it fitting properly in the exhaust openings of the valance? Anyone got a pic for me please?

Much thanks!

I'm open to feedback from the gang on "My Christmas Wishlist"

1. SOS or Cantrell Headers
2. GTLW exhaust
3. Downforce AIS - and possibly throttle body - any thoughts?
4. Bilsteins
5. 15mm front & 25mm rear spacers - I have OEM 7 spoke blades
6. 02+ rear valance

No issues with the rear valence, Ive got the Comptech Exhaust and while its too quiet, it fits fine. Nothing againest SOS (chris-your still my boy) whats wrong with Comptech headers and exhaust. The Cantrell ACIS is the same as the Downforce one, its your call. The sound is nice and it actually adds some power, dyno proven.

Thank you "Kid"....Actually I originally started out thinking about Comptech but a few people steered me away saying that SOS and Cantrell were equal length and $$ for $$ might be a better route....For the right deal any of the three would be great. As far as the Comptech exhaust so many people have said they didnt feel it was aggressive enough sounding and too close to stock....when I searched under GTLW here on Prime I saw lots of postive feedback on it. Before the checkbook opens up I'm open to any and all feedback and really appreciate hearing others based on "real life" experience vs me reading about it.

I have the gtlw and 02 valence and have no fitment issues.

How do you like the GTLW? Would you mind posting pics of the rear of your car?

I have a Taitec GTLW exhaust and I love the sound. It does drone at certain RPMs, but I don't find it that annoying. I think all of the best sounding exhausts have some drone. I used to have an RS*R exhaust and it was just too stock sounding (Comptech sounds very similar to the RS*R).
