    Hey guys and girls. Took the keys to my 2016 Tacoma TRD Access cab 6MT in Magnetic Gray last Friday. Love driving it so far, and already have a lot of mods planned. Tonight is the Magnaflow
    exhaust install. Any tips on removing the stock system?

    Thanks!

    Let us know if you see an increase in MPG. I'd do anything for that although I baby mine and get 21.3 average so far. I've seen videos on the flowmaster and it sounds awesome. I've got the manual tranny too. Sub'd

    Yeah I really like the idea of the dual setup on the Flowmaster, but was afraid of an overbearing sound at highway cruising speed. Having lots of great experiences with Flowmaster Cat-Backs in the past, I opted for the "safe" option. I'll post before/after sound clips tonight.
