Some thing else exhaust related that I've been thinking about lately...

I kind of like the Chinocharles filosofy of cheap mods for a cheap car

Looking at the pics of theTRD muffler, it just looks almost the same as the OEM muffler with a nice polished tip. I guess the difference must be on the inside.
So, any one thinks that could be possible to open the OEM muffler and take some guts out of it? I dunno how that muffler looks on the inside, but anyone thinks that this could be done? Improved flow and quite at the same time!

I've been thinking of trying this myself. I'll let you know how it goes. Probably wont get to it for about a month though.

Maybe one of the guys running the TRD's or one of the other aftermaket mufflers would be willing to open up theirs OEM so we can take a look and see if is worth it.

You could post it on the TRD muffler thread and see if anyone answers back.

I already have the OEM muffler. I just need to get over to my buddy's house. He has the welding equipment.
