    99% of all the complaints come from the V6 models. New engine, new rear end gearing, etc. Of all the complaints you see here I have never seen a 4 cylinder complain about any of these issues.

    If this is the fix, one would think Flowmaster would be promoting this feature?

    I'm really tempted to buy this before my cross country trip. Anyone know how loud and/or how much louder it is versus stock and the Magnaflow? I'd hate for it to have bad drone for that long of a trip.

    I would call Flowmaster and ask....from what I have observed they are good with these questions. Good luck --and thank you for your service!

    There were links further back in this thread for some youtube video's with sound..
    But if you simply googled Flowmaster American Thunder Cat Back on a 2016 Tacoma
    There are more..

    I noticed this morning on the way to work this steering wheel slight vibration along with floor vibration in my 16 Access Cab my job is 10 miles from where I live it seemed to stop about 8 miles into work.I'm starting to think this Atkinson V6/6Speed Automatic combo is a bad choice in the new Tacomas.I just installed new tires Toyo A/T 2's plus fuel hostage wheels the balancing is on point so that I know isn't the problem

    I just don't want a noisy droning exhaust. Also don't want to pay $500+ to fix something that Toyota should be paying to make right.

    Allegedly if the cure is to change out the exhaust but again none of this is proven. It could be placebo by the guy who spent hundreds on his new noise maker.

    Maybe you could buy the exhaust system and add.a ultra quiet Vibrant resonator to keep the noise down.I hear they work pretty good.

    I wish someone was close to whopper to drive in his truck and confirm.

    My Borla exhaust sounds great but didn't do much for fixing the vibration. But the flowmaster is a completely different shape/weight (2 exit) and the flow characteristics change. The Borla is very similar to the OEM dimensions. It could be possible, but we need more members to try it or someone to verify there is no vibration.
