    I can hit a cake hard Jaime. You never have to tell me twice. Plus it's just bad luck not to eat birthday cake if you are attending the party! :hungry:

    Oh a definite fact. Actually, you can increase your chances of good luck by eating more than one piece of the birthday cake. I generally go for 5 or 6, if no one is looking. If it's chocolate then everything is x1.5 :thumbsup:

    So at some point over the last day or two, my muffler tip fell off from being so rusted. Scored some stock WRX mufflers on CL for $80 so gonna go get those on Friday. Will look nicer and should be a hair louder!

    :rofl:

    Until I saw the pics I thought you were talking about your truck!

    To be honest, I really dig the sound of the WRX and have wondered how the mufflers would sound on a Tacoma...............

    haha not quite. They have a 2.0 H4 vs the 4.0 V6 in the tacoma.

    But between the Legacy and the WRX, I have a bigger engine. 2.5 H4 vs 2.0 H4. They just have a sweet ass turbo and I don't.

    Well, doesn't the WRX put out more HP? I thought they were pushing 305 bhp. Plus I am talking my puny 3.5 L.

    And, if you cut the OEM exhaust out and mount that WRX muffler then you don't have to worry about destroying your tail pipe crawling. A lot of guys have taken to cutting off the tail pipe behind the rear axle. I am even thinking about doing it.

    Yeah the WRX definitely puts out more HP because of their turbo! And I cut my exhaust over the axle a long time ago. Definitely handy! I also like the clean symmetrical look it offers as well.

    Yea, for a while I was hung up on the symmetry aspect too and thought about going to true duals. Eliminating the rear cats and adding a crossover pipe. It would be purely for performance and sound. But then I thought, why not go for function. It would be a lot cheaper to replace the muffler with that WRX muffler and just let the system end before the rear axle. :D
