    It's okay. I haven't heard a drive-by vid clip of an exhaust that didn't sound crappy. Your in-cab clip sounds good though.

    Thanks Bud!

    And man, that's because they're using crappy video cameras or the camera dude is constantly moving :D. I'll make sure when I actually do a drive by one I have my good camera and the wind noise hopefully won't be too terrible.

    I used to have the 2UZ with true dual magnaflows. Sounded similar to my current set up at low rpm's. High rpm's, not a chance.

    X2. On this, yeah after 2K RPMs with the Aero Turbine my truck sounds like a damn ricer. Oh well, it sounds better than the ford rangers, chevy colorados, and dodge dakotas I hear :D

    well i got a trd cat back, sounded good. till i put DT LT headers, now its really changed the sound. im getting more raspy/tinging sound from it. sounds like i got an exhaust leak. yes i know the exhaust is gonna be louder n the noise is most likely the valvetrain noise resinating through it but its starting to get on my nerves. so i need to get a new system. i was thinking of hooker maxflo or something like that. any opinions?

    seems like a lot of ppl on here enjoy the Borla, which i think sounds exactly the same as the Wicked Flow/Magnaflow yet its more expensive...

    What exactly went wrong?

    My Aero Turbine looks nice, but the mounts are starting to get rusty, same thing for the mounts towards the end of the exhaust pipe where the spare tire is :(
