How does this exhaust sound to you??

Ry1984 · 12-03-2008, 02:38 PM

Ok so I went to a shop to have my stock muffler replaced. Be honest about this, it won't hurt my feelings

I like how it sounds, I didn't want anything crazy, then again how crazy can you get witha 4 banger

Me, I don't really care for it. A little ricey. But hey, it's your truck, if you like it, thats good enough for me.

roxspin72 · 12-03-2008, 02:48 PM

Well, it is a four banger. Toyota is a Japanese make, even though manufactured in Mexico.

But yeah, I think it falls in that ricer catagory

Nah, sounds ok. I actually heard a little rumble at idle. Probably sounds better when cruising around, but definately will sound as did when you stomp on it.

To tell you the truth, I have not heard any Taco that sounds like a V8, so take that for what it's worth.

Have fun and enjoy

I had a flowmaster original 40 series on my 2.4 tacoma. Was a good deep sound, not rice until 4000+rpm. But the drone in the cab at highway speeds was enough to go crazy.

beastlytaco · 12-04-2008, 06:57 PM

sounds GREAT. kinda like my jardine.

chris4x4 · 12-04-2008, 07:04 PM

I think thats a great sound for a 2.7.

dabighi · 12-04-2008, 07:09 PM

Fluffymonkey · 12-04-2008, 07:16 PM

spdtaco · 01-02-2009, 10:32 AM

kind of a noob here, but i didnt care for it. Sounds too close to my neighbors civic. Im thinking about going for a Flowmaster 40 series in my 2.7.

DelmarvaTaco · 01-02-2009, 10:41 AM

Not a big fan of the sound... but it's your truck...

see above at post #4 - do you like a droning noise in the cab?

spdtaco · 01-02-2009, 10:47 AM

haha, perhaps it's because I'm young, but my music will probably drown out the noise anyway. and also, I usually drive with my windows open a few inches, so wouldn't that at least help to get rid of the dullness of the droning sound?

DelmarvaTaco · 01-02-2009, 11:05 AM

it may, but I suspect that you'll still be able to hear it due to the tone of the exhaust note versus music.

gm3bow · 01-06-2009, 10:33 PM

I've had a flowmaster 40 on my 2.7L for about a year and I'm fed up with the in-cab noise. Too loud for me. The outside sound is pretty good though, but i'll be swapping the flow out for a quiet muffler.

The Flowmaster Drones because its a bafle Type Exhaust, the Magnaflow or Borla would sound good!
