exhausts what to do what to do

[07Azuresciontc]

i want to buy an exhaust system for my 200 tc. no engine mods yet i want it to be loud but not ricey, i have been looking at the greddy evo2 kit. but can a custom exhaust work just as well for a cheaper price, i have though about a straight through exhaust no cats, this isn't a problem for me because i live in Florida i don't have to get inspections. but i don't know how it would perform on a stock tc thanks tim

[Krdshrk]

GReddy Evo II is kinda ricey - it's got a big coffee can style muffler... Plus it's expensive. Go for a custom straight pipe.

[07Azuresciontc]

do you happen to know some one with a straight pipe?

[Krdshrk]

Not in person. Check on YourSciontC.com - i know several forum members have it.

[fightinsk8ers]

Hks hi power exhaust has a nice low sound to it...thats what i have and it doesnt sound ricey at all. Custom would be alot cheaper though

[Nebster]

agency power is by far the best exhaust i've ever had on my car and i've had a hand full of exhaust. it is the best, deepest and the sexiest on the market.

[_Keith_]

just get custom one

[fightinsk8ers]

yeah its 700 fucking dollars lol

[fightinsk8ers]

agency power cat back taht is.......

[_Keith_]

go to a muffler shop get a magnaflow muffler get all custom piping... save yourself some cash and have a full exhaust!

[07Azuresciontc]

thanks guys for all your help i think im going to try out a custom straight pipe and see what kind of tones i get

[kris5597]

go to speed-element.com. get a tsudo catback nice low and deep sound. sounds fucking awesome. i have one on my car and many ppl including my self love it. just go to youtube and type in tsudo n1 catback and go listen to a bunch of clips about them. i recommend then any many others do to. but ur money, ur decision. the catback is 260 with free shipping at speed-element. id say do it.

[Krdshrk]

IMO the tsudo n1 catback's axelback section is ricey - it's angled and coffee can'ish. The midpipe is good and cheap though...

[crank_101]

n1 sucks (NO OFFENSE)....go megan all the way...Megan is a little PRICEY not ricey...


i got a obx but i am switching to a custom exhaust soon obx is too raspy. megan is extremely loud but it so worth it when people look at you in aw


agency is sexy not matter what car it is on. search eBay for cheaper ones but you prlly wont find one....



but yea agency will mos def give you show and performance and the sound that is literally like music, only problem, ITS FUCKEN EXPENSIVE !

[kris5597]

yea i agree agency is pretty good. it dont matter just look around until u find an exhaust that suits u everybody has there own opinions some ppl my like one thing and hate another and it would be opposite to someone else. so no one can tell u what to get just advice and i gave mine. do what i did. not that great of sound quality sometimes but hit up youtube and check out all dif kinds of exhaust until u find one that suits u. thats what u should. dont listen to anybody because they my like it and when u get it u may hate it and there goes 3 or 4 hundred bucks for something u dont like. i dont care if u run open headers if u like it thats u.

[TunerTrifecta]

mmmm open headers :)

better yet:

mmmm open downpipe turbo car....*drool*

[Krdshrk]

open dump = dirty engine bay..... ew...

I know a couple people who had electric cutouts though....

[kris5597]

i was kidding i didnt think anyone acutally wanted to run open headers on a scion

[TunerTrifecta]

I ran open DP on my supra for a while. Coolest sound EVER, but DAMN is it loud in the cab

[Jc07tC]

i had a straight pipe done on my matrix..
it sounds nice but its too loud
im sure a resonater would quiet it down
but i have a magnaflow catback waiting to be installed =)

[Mr_Meaty]

I like the HKS and I currenlty have the Injen. both sound real nice, bu they are like $300 and are only axle backs.

I will be switching to a 2.5" catback from http://www.turbo-mafia.com/ soon. Many choices of mufflers, sizes and full cat back (with or without resonators for you header guys) starting at $300. But they all have angled tips (which I love) but if you want a straight tip in the back, they don't do it.
Dezod.com has a good one too, but I like my big cannons, not the stock style!

[JoshCrane1]

GO headers and custom from s-pipe back, be sure to add xtra resonators.

[07Azuresciontc]

i went to a couple of muffler shops to day taliing about custome exhausts an i have made my decison. im going to go with a cat back custom 2.5" pipe a flowmaster 60 series muffler. with a 3" out mimiking stock

[JoshCrane1]

what price did they quote you?, im planning on doing the same soon. and who was it.

[Krdshrk]

I ran open DP on my supra for a while. Coolest sound EVER, but DAMN is it loud in the cab

So is a full catless exhaust. I used a DB meter on mine - 128 DB.
BOV clocked at 130'ish :D

[crank_101]

PROVE IT!!!!:wave:

[07Azuresciontc]

hey josh i went to a muffler shop in psl on us1 and talked to mario. he quoted me cat back 150 with a muffler i provide, cat back with him providing the muffler its 250, and if you want header back with his muffler its 300 cash only, ive got his number if you want

[Krdshrk]

I can't prove it but I have a few witnesses. Lol.

[kris5597]

i know yall dont like tsudo and all but i found a pretty kool tsudo catback with the blue burnt tip and i think it looks awesome.

[fightinsk8ers]

i like the tsudo, but that agency power cat back is so hot! when i go turbo im gettin that exhaust for sure!

[kris5597]

yea agency is pretty BA but its a lot of money. too much for my wallet right now.

[crank_101]

agency is most appropiate for a show/turboed car......i heard a turboed tc with an agency exhaust...(:guns:) almost robbed tha foo.

[kris5597]

lol yea i like ark. i think ark sounds good. hey what do u think about putting a throttle body spacer on?

[TunerTrifecta]

Hey Kris, do you have the Ark exhaust? They've offered to sponsor me and I'm curious as to the sound and performance of it!

[kris5597]

shit i wish. go to youtube and type in ark ark performance tc that bitch sounds BA!!!

[Krdshrk]

hey what do u think about putting a throttle body spacer on?

Why would you? I'm sorry, but that's just stupid. They're made for CARB'd engines, not Fuel Injected. It won't do anything for you except lighten your wallet and weigh down the car.

[kris5597]

o well i read a couple of things about one and it says it gives it a lil more low end hp and better gas mileage

[TunerTrifecta]

Nick, not trying to insult, but you're incorrect. Throttle body spacers area good way to add more air into the mix without modifying your intake plenum. It creates more volume in the throat of the TB.

Intake plenum spacers are another way to add volume. Same concept. My dad runs a TB spacer on his GN, and I ran an IP spacer on my Supra. It makes for a good gain in low end grunt, and is actually noticable on the "Butt-Dyno"

[Krdshrk]

Again - That Grand National is a domestic, Carbureated car. If someone actually gets one and dyno tests it on a tC then i'll revise my opinion, but until then, "butt dyno" tells me nothing. Especially since it was a poopra, which has much more power.

[TunerTrifecta]

Erm, the GN is SFI, not carbuerated. And domestic or import has about as much to do with it as the price of tea in china. A motor is a motor is a motor is a motor. They all do the same thing. HOW they do it may be different, but the essential concept is the same. It takes 3 things to make an engine run: Fuel, Air, Spark. Adding more of one usually (read: usually) results in a bigger bang, thus more power; by adding more volume to your intake tract, you're adding more air.

Yes, the poopra does have more power though. I miss it :(

Not trying to criticize or argue with you, just a dispute in opinion I guess.

[Krdshrk]

Everything i've seen says that a TB Spacer doesn't do anything except for carb'd cars. Try dyno'ing your car with and without one and if there's a significant gain, i'll change my opinion :)

[kris5597]

see things like this confuse me about things because two ppl who know what they are talking about say two dif things about something. ya know ima go to a jesus forum and ask him hell know what the right thing to do it lol. but thank u both for yalls opinion. can i have both of yalls cars now lol.

[TunerTrifecta]

It isn't going to provide more torque overall, but it'll make the torque band start earlier. Now you've got me wanting to get one made and go dyno lol.

[kris5597]

shit i already got one on the way. lol cant wait to get it. ill let yall know what it does

[TunerTrifecta]

good deal! Oh and uh....why would you want my car? It's a 100% stock tC...
