NEW EXHAUST SOUND GOOD OR BAD ???

HELP ME OUT HERE GUYS !! JUST HAD A NEW MUFFLER INSTALLED AND AM NOT SURE IF I LIKE IT OR NOT.

ITS A CLONE MUFFLER OF A MAGNAFLOW 14'' (SHOP SAID SAME AS MAGNAFLOW JUST NO NAME ON IT)

ITS AN A 2002 DOUBLE CAB SR5 TRD 4X4 3.4L

I HAVE NEVER HEARD OUR TRUCKS IN PERSON WITH A PERFORMANCE MUFFLER SO IM NOT SURE OF HOW IT SHOULD SOUND. JUST WANT TO MAKE SURE IM GETTING THE MAGNAFLOW SOUND OR IF I SHOULD TAKE IT BACK AND TELL THEM TO SHOVE IT!!!!

As long as you like it who cares man. Don't let people on the internet tell you what you should or shouldn't do with your truck. I think it sounds good.

 

THANKS, IM JUST WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT IM GETTING THE MAGNAFLOW SOUND LIKE THE SHOP SAID I WOULD.

 

Sounds decent man the biggest thing is magnaflows is there stainless Steel and last .. There not that loud and tacomas don't have the best soundIng motors... Like said before if you like it that's all that matters... Don't expect it to sound like a v8 you'll always be disappointed ...

 

sounds like a magnaflow 2 me! its been year or so since iv had mine but i remember mine sounding very similar to that tone on my 4.0

 

.
This muffler is also stainless steel.

 

I know it wont sound like a v8. I was just hoping it would sound like my co-workers GM 4.3

 

bump

 

I think it sounds fine

 

sounds close to mine..a real magna flow 14''...but quite as beefy or gurgly tho..could be that i have 2.5'' pipe out of mine tho..


Either way..who gives a rats ass what a bunch of dude on the internet think..if you like it..keep it.

 

actually IMO yours sounds good! Not ricey. Nice tone. My advice, have a buddy or someone drive your truck past you in a lot so you can hear it under load. This is what everyone will be hearing-not you setting there revving it in park. I actually strapped my digital camera onto my rear mudflap and videoed my twin exhaust as I drove around, but I'm sick in the head and that's for another thread

 

sounds good man!

 

Thanks for the input everyone!

 

lol!! nice

 

sounds pretty good if you ask me

 

thanks

 

The muffler as a XLERATOR made by AP exhaust

 

I have heard that a muffler will get louder when it's broke it. If that's true how long dose it take to break one in.

 

Sounds pretty good to me. 4cyl and 6cyl engines that come in trucks always sound like shit no matter what. Decent is as good as you'll ever get with a tacoma.
