No Lc long tube header....

superyota · « **Reply #4 on:** Jun 08, 2009, 10:34:46 PM »

a flowmaster or magnaflow with a header will definitley be loud. i had a old 2 chamber flow master on mine for years. it got annoying after a while. now i have a cherry bomb turbo muffler(not a glass pack), and it sounds a lot better.

on my 3.0 4runner i had a magna flow with no cat wasnt too loud
magna flow uses a straight through desigh wioth just packing

on my 2rz i was running that same magna flow cut in half and repacked, it was coming right off the down pipe. it was louder than an ls1 running baffled headers, and it souded really good.

i just tryed a supertrapp muffler wich only last a couple hours before i ripped it off(literaly) i doesnt sound that good

Put a v8 in the truck, then any muffler will sound good.

Wermz84 · « **Reply #9 on:** Jun 09, 2009, 08:20:18 AM »

I have a MagnaFlow and I'm happy with it. little grumble at low rpm's but it can get a bit loud at higher rpm's.

i've also got 2 1/4" piping all the way out.

I have a delta flow 40 series on my truck (its a 3.4). and i love the way it sounds. I have heard this muffler on a 2.7 as well and while it does indeed sound a bit more ricey (not the mufflers fault), it still sounded good. Magnoflow's also tend to have a nice sound.

Halladay · « **Reply #13 on:** Jun 09, 2009, 09:54:00 PM »

haha no i just bought a purple hornie. its made by flowtech not cherry bomb

I need an new exhaust on the cheap. So, I went with a 30" glass pack and now my 3.0 sounds like a small Cessna flying over...

Halladay · « **Reply #15 on:** Jun 09, 2009, 09:56:45 PM »

haha thats whay purple hornie is. its a 30 inch glass pack hahaha im going to be running hedmen header, 2 foot down pipe to my purple hornie haha

I'm running a Flowmaster 40 series with 2.25" pipe on my 4runner, its loud... sounds alright, i ran the same muffler on my old Toyota pickup with the same engine (22re) with only 2" pipe instead of 2.25" and i though that the truck sounded better.

Snowtoy · « **Reply #17 on:** Jun 09, 2009, 10:03:28 PM »

I run the cheap($24) Raptor Turbo mufflers behind both my 3.0 and 22re. I had run an Downy hugh flow muffler but it droned a bit too much for my likes. The Raptor has a nice throaty sound and is cheap enough to replace as often as needed. I have 5yrs on one and 2 on teh other, then again I don't lie in the rust belt either.

Halladay · « **Reply #18 on:** Jun 09, 2009, 10:08:13 PM »

so no one runs the purple hornie i take it

Prismo · « **Reply #19 on:** Jun 09, 2009, 10:26:56 PM »

I just bought a Raptor a couple weeks ago. Haven't put it on yet but for 20 bucks I can't go too wrong.

Is the hedman a 4 into 1 header or a tri-y? I had a cheaper long tube 4 into 1 before with straight pipe to a glasspack and I really liked the way it sounded, just got too loud for even me.

I switched to a NWOR tri-y and a magnaflow - 18" body, 2.5" in/out, and I honestly don't care for the way it sounds. I'll be building a new exhaust from the header back to the back of the truck, but if I still don't like the way it sounds I'll probably be switching back to a 4 into 1 header.

Halladay · « **Reply #21 on:** Jun 10, 2009, 08:44:36 AM »

ya the hedmen is 4 into one. i hope it sounds good. im buying my new welder tommarow a hobart 140amp brand new for 420 bucks so im going to use that to make it. the only thing i dont know about is what the heck ima do with the o2 censor....? any ideas? i want my exhaust short and my o2 is by the cat not on the manifold like most.

Straight_Axle_Swap_86 · « **Reply #24 on:** Jun 10, 2009, 09:08:10 AM »

sounds good for the most part. its a little poppy downshifting. i definately would not spend money on one though.

Halladay · « **Reply #25 on:** Jun 10, 2009, 09:24:58 AM »

Straight_Axle_Swap_86 · « **Reply #26 on:** Jun 10, 2009, 09:27:17 AM »

Halladay · « **Reply #27 on:** Jun 10, 2009, 09:31:53 AM »

Do a google search for toyota 02 sensor elimination and see what comes up. I stuck an aftermarket pipe on my 01 street bike but it didn't have the bung to mount the 02 sensor, so a little research netted me a sensor eliminator which has worked great for years. It's just a little unit that mounts to the plug for the sensor and tricks it into thinking everything's fine.
