i need a more "throaty" exhaust

my neighbor has a v6 with flows and it seriously sounds like its farting down my street.... my girlfriend of all people pointed this out to me.

 

Mine sounds nothing like that....I need to get a clip of it when it gets back from the shop

 

Flowmaster with doug thorley headers

 

Now your talkin

 

IMO flowmasters are too small. they dont allow the sound to resonate. the magnaflow muffler is larger and the extra size helps make the exhaust note deeper

 

Hmmm...my 44 sounds deeper from what i've heard on youtube but I could be wrong

 

i dont know about the six's

ive heard tacomas with flow44s and flow 40s

the magnaflow sounds the best imo

 

yeah dude probably has smallest one but it sounds bad lol

 

The magnaflow muffler i have is one of the larger ones. its a 5x11x22 oval. makes for a good deep sound. its a magnaflow universal muffler.

not too loud, no highway "drone"

hey guys! thanks for all the sugestions. im runnign the stock exhaust and i really just want something different. im just looking to swap the muffler right now because my wife and i are headed to alaska in jan for 3 yrs. should make plenty of money up there to do the things i really want with the taco. thanks again.

 

loving my jba....

 

I have never heard the 4 cyl. I have the 6 with the trd cat back and sounds good to me. But in theory a 4 cyl is like half of an 8 cyl, right? So if you had an 8 cyl with strait pipes off of each side, it would be like 2 4 cyls? right? So I would think its possible to make a 4 cyl sound good. I don't know. I'm just throwing that out there. Its just a wild guess!

 

lol. very true. im hoping to just throw a different muffler on it for now and then a true cat back after getting to alaska. just dont know what to do right now.

 

In theory, that sounds plausible. However, in practice it's pretty inaccurate.

The cylinder firing order and cam / valve timing have a lot to do with what the exhaust note sounds like. Point in case, the latest generation Yamaha R1 has the new crank and cylinder firing order, as well as revised timing. It sounds nothing like the previous gen R1 engine, despite being similar displacement and cylinder configuration.

 

I got headers and flowmaster on my 1st gen. It's pretty deep sounding and no exhaust popping.

 

i was thinking about a flow but then i was thinking about throwing a thrush muf on it and seeing what it sounded like. i just dont want a ricey sound.

 

you know how i know you're gay?

 

if you are looking for "cheap", ask yourself "WHY". Just my opinion though.

 

the reason i want cheap is because im leaving for alaska in january and i still have to drive my truck for a few months. a move to alaska isnt cheap from anywhere and id like to do something with it before we leave. so cheap is what im asking and if you dont have an opinion, shut up. im looking for honest suggestions and not smart a$$ remarks. i know what i want to do eventually, but right now, its not feasible.
