MARYLAND TACOMAS

Have you looked into Gibson? Been running it on my truck for last couple years.

 

Just installed the trd exhaust. It sounds awesome. Can't attest for much performance. Appalachian Offroad just installed the toytec lit and the truck looks awesome. Definitely on a Tacoma Hugh right now.

 

I love my exhaust too an have gotten many complements on the tip with the trd logo

 

I was gonna get a TRD setup but found a good deal on a lightly used Magnaflow catback...hopefully I like it...

 

Mike:
Why are you changing out the exhaust? Just curious on my part.

I was looking at headers formy 4 banger but realized that I needed to change the intake to mke headers a viable option for improved exhaust flow. A supercharger is not really in my future.

 

In all my years of owning and modifying vehicles, I've never had an exhaust. I figured I'd give this one a try since it's a popular brand, almost new and a good price. If I don't like it or it drones too much, I'm getting it for a good enough price I can sell it for $20 more on here and it's still a deal for someone else from the prices I've seen.

I'd like to do the full headers, y-pipe, intake as well, but that will be pieced together over time. Apparently the V6 headers are the biggest pain in the ass to do, Steve and Louie were doing a pretty good job of dissuading me at the DE meet.

I have no supercharger in my future so don't feel too bad. I put too many miles on my truck and forced induction always shortens the life of something...

 

I have the stainless magnaflow. It's awesome. Way better than flowmaster for me. The 40 was wayyy too loud.

 

This supports most of the reviews I have heard. My biggest concern is if it drones on the highway with the 6 speed since I am at higher revs than the auto at the same speed. I am routinely doing 60-80 for miles at a time. We will see...

 

Which lift from them did you go with? And what size you go with? Trying to lift mine soon and trying to get a feel for what I should do.

 

Thats my concern as well let me know how it works out

 

It does drone a little. Just get some mud terrains and you'll forget all about it!

 

Does anyone on the east coast fab bumpers for our trucks shipping is so damn expensive

 

Tactical Armor Group but I hear their quality is suspect...

 

Usually the gas in the gas tank.

Sounds like you have a plan.

 

Yes but as I am about to find out I am not allowed to have plans anymore...got a kid on the way and need to buy a house...

 

As it should be. Congrats on the little one on the way!

It is all about the child now, Your life will not be the same till you retire.

 

Horray

 

Rain = wet pavement which in return reduces the amount of friction that one can have when needing to stop. I can't believe it. My wife was just creamed In the new car..uugghhh. I just want to build a tank for her. She is okay. Subaru has a crushed rearend. I guess time for a hefty offroad bumper. Damn it..

 

Christ. Glad she is ok man.

 

Thanks guys...Amazing how quickly it all passes by, we are only 3.5 months away...

Sorry to hear about it but glad to hear your wife is OK.
