Well should have said 15hp with other upgrades not just the exhaust. I'm ok with some noise at 5K RPM as I don't think you can do much about that at those rpm's.

My 74 BMW 2002 would be at 5K at 100 k/h+ and with two glass packs it wasn't too bad but in town it was too loud for my liking and I efin hate fart can sounding exhausts, just seem ridiculous to have to listen so much noise in an econo box.

I'll check out the TRD jdm one out.

Thanks.

The TRD exhaust I have is louder than the stock unit, it can be annoying any takes a while to get used to. Trust me.
BUT it looks great and is real sturdy so it won't rot out after a few snowy seasons....
I switched back to the stock muffler once to see the difference and man, that stock setup is real QUIET..... If you can't deal with any extra noise, then stay stock.

i have the hk and sometimes it cancels out some bass and low mid tones when listening to music. so will any after market axle back do that? i put a big pillow in the trunk up against the back seats i still dont know if 'muffling' the muffler

yeah and hopefully next winter is as good as this last one !!!

^^ BAD NEWS on that end seeing as its around 700 bucks now with the conversion. When i bought mine back in 08 when toyota still had stock of them in the US i paid 400.
the USDM trd exhaust is 3 times louder than this jdm one and it doesn't have that coffee can look!

[severous01]

just get a good one like magnaflow or borla. they use chambers to cancel noise, not baffles like stock.

I can say I've heard the fujitsobu (or however its spelled) and I've owned the tanabe medallion touring for a few thousand miles, and both of them are a deep, relatively quiet tone.

Not quiet as stock, but not fart cans at all! And you can always cut the super douche-bag tip off, I know I did!

i own a fujitsubo and its very quiet. I really have to floor it at low rpm to hear something. After 4k rpm the engine noise takes over. im happy with it.

**i have the fujitsubo for the Vitz RS. It sits higher it will rub against the stock USDM bumper, so i think you might have to get the fujitsubo for the 1.3L, since the bumpers for US and their lower grade sits at the same height.

okay i see im not sure if i want to do any alterations to the stock piping but i will look into it . i mainly just want an axle back thats not as loud as the hk that just bolts on like the magnaflow or borla do either of these fit the sedan ? they seem like they arent as loud and thats exaggly what i would want

[Aarron_M]

Fujitsubo makes fantastic exhausts!

You want more flow, but quieter? Just have two resonators installed along the exhaust path.

Totally, my intake is all I can hear right now. haha

[skootdog]

The Youtube of the tanabe sounds really nice not so tin canney. They have one of the Borla that sounded good to but im having a little trouble finding someone who sells it. Ilike the duel tip.

Anybody know if one of those Ebay twin loops will fit in a hatchback? The measurements are too big, but I don't know if they are counting the tip(which can be modified).

It's the same basic design(twin loop) as the OEM muffler...they are funny looking for sure, first car I've had with one.

Here's an IDEA:
Get Any Muffler of your Choice.....
Tell your Exhaust installer to remove your CAT....

Wield 2 Cherrybomb/Glass pack Silencer ......
Thus your midpipe should have 3 Silencer (inclusive of your stock one)

Voilà .... Silent as the night.....

[larryn2o]

i just put a 2 inch pipe on a stock flange and ran over the axle to a 2 inch Cherry Bomb turbo. it has an offset so the tip is in the stock location and it all looks stock ."in case the law has a problem with that stuff". it is just a bit louder than stock with no load, some what louder under load. nice sound , no popping or racking off. a noticeable increase in power . muffler $24 at Auto Zone , pipe bent ,muffler mounted and tip at local muff shop. $44. (total $66)
it ain't stainless , but I'll change it in a year or so anyway! :)

Was idly surfing the 'net and a thought (from the days of yore before HKS landed on these shores) occurred to me: For the people who say even the Medalion Touring or TRD mufflers are too noisy, has anyone tried or heard of anyone trying to cut the tip off and welding on a Supertrapp muffler/tip? They have an 8" shorty muffler which would fit on the Medalion and be the thrid resonator. Or, how about those Monza dual muffler tips (ugh, crap quality though)?

If not, mebbe I could try it. Just a thought...
