Considering straight piping my 4 L V6 08 Taco...

I have heard a few clips on YouTube, they were pretty bad quality videos and there aren't many videos to begin with of em...

Just wanted to know what I would be getting into.

If you guys have a straight pipe and a vid, please post it.

It will cost you $2,500 in fines + court costs if you get pulled over by a Cop....ESPECIALLY in California.
