    Its $ 245 OTD. I was looking at getting it via web but opted to just go to my local shop, look at what they got and the go to guy for exhaust was very knowledgeable. I gave him a little tip for a job well done.:)

    Its for the single. I contemplate on the dual but I just went single. I read a thread about the wicked exhaust product, their price is cheaper, stainless steel and lifetime warranty. ToucanV13 got it installed in his truck and it sounds just wicked. Check it out man. Pls have a sound clip once you made your choice. Best of luck.

    Its an 18 vs 13 on the wicked exhaust. Hey don't get me wrong I like my magnaflow. I just wish I got another Tacoma to install the wicked exhaust.

    I have the 2.7L in my 2007 tacoma with the magnaflow exhaust, there was a deep tone model and a high tone model I oppted for the deep tone. My honest opinion? Sounds ricey not gonna lie but it grows on you and when it bounces off the rev limiter kinda sounds like a wrx revvin up haha. And driving on the highway kinda sucks loud drone in the cabin. Everyone tells me it sounds good when they hear it go down the street but maybe it sounds better outside the truck then inside.

    Yep, got a drone too. Not sure if it will grow on me. I've had thoughts of trading it for something else. Not made a decision yet. I wonder if something can be done about the drone.

    Is this custom piping after the muffler or can this be bought from a company?

    Just got the magnaflow, sounds perfect not to deep or throaty and it does not sound like a lawnmower. I do say that the interior noise is higher, but I guess I will get used to it. Flowmaster was too loud for me in IMO. Sounds mean enough if you want to show off and quiet enough so you won't get a headache inside the cab.

    Is there a cat-back version of this? If so PLEASE direct me to it.

    In sound, probably not, but performance, eh, I would imagine so, or at least that's what the target outcome would be.

    There really isn't any performance gain just sound! Save your $ and just switch mufflers. I think they all sound pretty similar. I've got a flowmaster 50 which is a moderate one and I think it sounds great. Deeper than the trd and it was $60 + $40 installed in 10 min.

    i see that someone bumped a very old thread, but based on your Wild sticker, I wonder if you are in my area. What is the name of the shop you worked with? Would you recommend them?

    My local muffler shop refuses to simply weld on a muffler. Says if he's gonna do work he's gonna build it himself. Which is understandable in terms of profit, except for the fact that that decision of his turned his small profit into no profit -.- ass

    i'm a magnaflow fan :)

    i've got a magnaflow on my '99 trans am, ...the sound is superb! ...plus lifetime warranty, 100% stainless, ...and good looks..

    i think the OP's trucked sounded great, ..and good style too, IMO, w/ the dual left/right exits - that's the way i'd do it! ...now just need to find a taco..

    If I upgrade my exhaust, will all the shops include proper tuning and adjustments with the installation?

    There is no adjusting or tuning needed. It is a direct-fit replacement. The Tacoma ECM cannot be reprogrammed, and there realistically is no need to do that after replacing an exhaust.

    Anyone know if a magnaflow exhaust system for a 2010 DCSB will fit on a 2015 DCSB? I am thinking the hangars just need to be bent slightly to have a good fit.
