1st Gen Exhaust Poll

Very nice!

 

I had a FM 40 on my truck for a few years, then I chopped it off and ran no muffler for a year... then I went back to stock. Had to order a whole new muffler from the cats back from Autoplicity. Best $160 I ever spent IMO.. I think it was a Bosal OEM replacement. I also took it off because if I wanna be loud.. my 12" sub can pound the ground enough but I have the ability to turn that down if I want

 

I need that
I have headers intake no cat and aero turbine muffler 2525 and it's just loud
I've had my taco really loud and I think it's time for a change
I'm gonna look into that site

 

Yes if you want a true OEM replacement get the Bosal. Autoplicity had the best prices with free shipping.
Take that back, it wasn't $160, it was $122 total.

Here is the one I purchased (for my 2004 4wd Ext cab): http://autoplicity.com/products/2856102-bosal_295_187_muffler.aspx

 

Oh even better will order that probably Friday

 

Borla Turbo Xl or Borla Pros XS? 1st Gen 3.4?

 

Cherry bombs all the way maddafakkas! hadn't seen or heard the word cherry bombs since the 90s or 00s I think. Lol, they still around? Makes me want a cherry bomb for a lil shit box 2wd 5lugger beater taco
Jk, no idea man on your question. Prolly wouldn't make much difference either way as long as it fits right. But I get wanting to get the absolute best one since you're in there already, kinda thing

 

I recently got the MagnaFlow 18" with custom stainless from cat + side exit.. I really like it - louder than stock, and no annoying drowning... Sounds like a truck.

 

I wanted to keep OEM (getting older, not a fan of louder anymore) but the bud built trac bar required a smaller footprint muffler. I went with some brand X muffler on Amazon for the same pipe diameter and engine displacement that is an OEM like replacement (quiet) but it's likely too restrictive.
Amazon linking sucks, it's a Walker 21357 quiet flow. It's pretty quiet but I still like the OEM more

I might just try my hand at a more flow happy exhaust that is still quiet. I used 3" piping on my is300 with a resinator and a dynomax VT valved muffler and it's crazy quiet for being a 500+ hp capable exhaust. Made a similar variant for a buddy and sounds even better {quiet but tuned (VT in the mid section, vibrant can in the back)).

 

IS300? Man, Tacoma owners have some great taste in vehicles

 

I welded on a couple month old 3rd gen muffler onto my 1st gen for something like 70 bux after the v band flanges i used and it was nice and quiet

 

Which model Borla muffler should I buy?

 

My last 2 Tacoma’s have had some form of a magnaflow on it. My 2000 had a magnaflow muffler welded in place of the stock one. I ran that for like 6 years until I installed a

$736 magnaflow 15811 magnaflow 2000-2004 toyota tacoma street series cat-back performance exhaust system, 2.7L, 3.4L

magnaflow 15811 cat back exhaust. It sounded great paired with the headers. When I bought my 04 the stock muffler was rotted out, so the magnaflow cat back kit was a no brainer

 

Literally my truck

Can vouch putting the glasspack on the 5 lug made whipping it 100x more fun. Even if it's a slug

 

is there more than one choice from them to fit the 3.4 xtracab?
i did not recall if there was or not

 

I was looking at this one

 

what kind of note does that model give?
mine is the touring catback and relatively quiet

Not sure

 

Jones 2525 (used to be aero turbine) in stock location, with side exit is as close to the stock TRD (axle dump) I had before. Deeper sound, no drone, doesnt sound hollow or raspy when you get on it either.

 

Anyone have any experience with a Gibson on this Thread ? Have been looking for an exhaust for my 04 3.4l extended cab and was originally looking at the Borla kit but according to multiple vendors it doesn't fit the extended cab and now trying to decide between the Magnaflow, Gibson, Or Bosal.
