What's the best sounding exhaust for the 3.4L V6?

I've lost a little power, but some with goin to the 3" diameter pipe and the straights, but if you go up to that size piping like from cat back it will have a pretty deep tone, definitely boss for a v6.

 

you should get a thrush exhaust, like i said, here is an old video from last winter of my thrush, I wanted to get a better one for you but this'll have to do for now..

cold engine thrush startup, warm idle, ill try and get a drive clip tomorrow


whats even funnier is when i was looking for exhausts that i liked when i was getting ready to come back from Afghanistan, i found your video Ross and it made me decide to buy thrush.






Here it is warmed up and just idling

Ross, your truck sounds hella sick. I'm diggin the thrush exhaust so far.

 

awesome! I'm really glad you guys like it, so far it's my favorite.

nice looking bike too Ryan, what is it?

 

Hey ryan, I'm having trouble getting your video to buffer. It's all choppy and wont do anything but buffer.

 

weird, it's working for me

 

I think it's my POS computer.

 

oddly enough its a 01 suzuki katana, most people shy away from them, i picked it up super cheap, painted it, lowered and stretched it and its super comfortable to ride, and cheap as hell on insurance

looks like a fun toy, I used to have an 07 honda shadow, but right now the cruiser thing isn't for me, so I sold it to pay for school, and I'll pickup a sport bike in a couple years.
orrrrr a supermoto, those look real fun!

 

Borla cat back with duals

 

oh do you have that on your 3.4?

 

Just a few questions about Thrush, not trying to jack this thread though:

Rab89 and IDRIVETOYS, what type of Thrush mufflers do you have on your Tacoma? Also, what size inlet/outlet is it, 2.25 with center in/out? And does it get annoying driving on highways crusing around 65 mph? The annoying drone is the only reason I'm hesitating getting a Flowmaster.

 

Mine is all stock piping, just cut out the stock muffler, added a piece of pipe for length and welded in the new muffler.
Mine is the Thrush welded muffler, 2nd down on the list http://www.thrushexhaust.com/products.html#Welded

Mine doesn't have much drone at all at 65ish mph, I have done plenty of 400-1000km drives and it's never bothered me, I'm doing 4000km at the end of march, and didn't even think of my exhaust being an issue.

 

we have the exact same one, i do 300 mile drives twice monthly and i love it

 

If you could post up whatever other videos you have of your Thrush's, that would be extremely helpfull! One of my buddies is trying to talk me into getting the Thrush Glasspack (with possible tip), but like I said, I don't know if it will be too loud or if it will even sound good...

 

Here is a video of my 3.4L with a Flowmaster 40. This video was taken a day after I got it put on so I have worked it in since then.

With the sickness! I'm buying one tomorrow.

 

I dont have a 3.4l (yet) but I would say Borla. The vid's that I have seen they all have a nice deep tone to them. Here's a good vid.

Put a Thrush Welded muffler on yesterday, and it definaltey sounds good! I'm glad I took people advice here. Not too loud, and almost no drone on highways.

However, long story short-made stupid mistake and muffler fell off while driving home from shop I installed it at (whoops... ). But, the Tacoma sounded AWESOME with no muffler! Down shifting never sounded so good with all the puttering. haha
