stock exhaust mods??

Just got an 07 2.7 single cab taco! Not really strict on emissions in TN so what can I do to the stock set up for a little more growl? Just looking for a saturday project haha

 

Cut a big hole in the muffler?

 

haha maybe. How far back can I just take off and still have enough back pressure

 

I have the 6 cyl. and just removed the muffler.....very cheap option.

 

Lol mine has some holes in it from being old and crusty so it actually doesn't sound too bad, little bit of grumble but not overwhelming or annoying

 

When I ran the stock muffler, I cut the pipe so as to make a turndown after the rear axle. It was nice as everything remained tucked up underneath the truck, and it was still really quiet even with the short pipe.





If you want just a little more sound, you could leave your pipe long and have a good sized aftermarket muffler installed. I presently run a large 5x11 MagneFlow 22 inch long body muffler I got off ebay, and it's really deep and mellow sounding with no cab drone.



But if you install a louder muffler and cut your exhaust pipe short, you'll get the dreaded cab drone for sure.

Oh nice that looks really good. I think I'm going too pull it today so Ill let you know how it turns out!

 

Tooter also really impressive manifold spacer. Do you machine all that yourself??

 

Thanks for the kind words, C... but I can only take credit for the basic design idea. The CNC engineer used to work for the Ford Motor Company designing intake manifolds. So he had free rein on implementing the idea as he saw fit. He's a perfectionist and did an absolutely beautiful job of it.

mine was straigh piped for a while and if i was going down a hill not giving it any gas it would gargle, or if you let out in first it would. it was a deep sound.
