    I would like some help choosing the best exhaust I can get for my 06 V6.
    Let me know what you got, and if you think it was worth the money.
    I am looking for better MPG and power, sound doesnt really matter.

    If the sound is of no concern to you, go for the dynomax for sure...

    Well, your thought process is slightly flawed here... Laser exhaust, from what I have found, is in fact a company aimed at performance muffler systems for motorcycles. Also, an "absorption muffler" is simply another name for a glasspack, or resonator. Taking your muffler out and putting one of these in by itself will yield you a VERY LOUD pissed off weedeater sounding Tacoma (I tried it). So if you had a V8 and wanted to be obnoxiously loud and badass, a stand alone glasspack is the correct path. And last but not least, it is nearly impossible to have no backpressure. The simple fact that you have exhaust piping gives you backpressure. If you had none, first of all you would run so lean the truck probably wouldn't run and also you would leave unburned fuel all over the place. The only way it would be even possible is if you had no exhaust manifold...
