Product Description

The aFe 49-36612 Takeda Cat-Back Exhaust System is a performance exhaust upgrade engineered specifically for the **2008-2012 Honda Accord Coupe** with the 3.5L V6 engine. Built from mandrel-bent 304 stainless steel with a mitered merge collector, this cat-back system enhances exhaust flow and throttle response while producing a deeper and more aggressive exhaust note than the stock system. Dual high-flow mufflers help absorb high-frequency tones and provide a balanced sound character across the RPM range.

Installation is straightforward with a direct bolt-on design that uses OE-style flanges and band clamps - no cutting or drilling is required. Dual polished double-wall 304 stainless steel Takeda tips with laser-etched branding complete the sporty, performance-oriented look at the rear of the vehicle. In internal dyno testing by aFe, this exhaust has shown gains of up to **+10 HP and +9 lb-ft of torque** over the factory system, making it a popular upgrade for Accord V6 coupe enthusiasts seeking both sound and performance improvements. Fitment is confirmed through 2012 at the time of this listing.
