would there be much power difference between the flowmaster and magnaflow (straight thru) if i left my n/a pretty much stock? im aiming at keeping it as a daily driver and wont be looking to massive power gain. if having a much louder exhaust sound is gonna give me only 1 or 2 hp more then i think id stick with the flowmaster.

They will be about the same power and ammount of noise. If you want to keep it quiet, Leave the cat alone and the stock piping. There was a pretty big difference in sound with the 2.5 inch piping, Because i reused the same muffler. I was going to get my cat gutted out but i sold the car :( might have made it sound better. And if anyone sees this \/ car in the philly/South jersey area, Let me know. I wana know how its doing!1!

i dont really think your exhaust sounds bad lol. in fact i think it sounds ok. to my ears a bad exhaust is those of harleys and civics you can hear a mile away. i dont mind that its a little loud i just dont want it sounding like a honda. my 86.5 had a crappy flowmaster wannabe muffler and i didnt think it sounded bad, and though it was a little loud (with the cat), it didnt bother me. plus im only 20, i play my music pretty loud. if in the end its too loud ill try mrnickleye's setup.

Generally the supra motor just has a nice tone, So odds are no matter what you pick you might like it. And when you hear that allll the time, it can get a little irritating. I would like to be able to switch easily.

looking at your 86.5 makes me miss my 86.5 and my 87 before it was wrecked (remember the "firestone wrecked my supra!" thread?). im hijacking my own thread, but oh well, i got everything i needed to know. thanks eveyrone.

my 86.5 *sigh*

Edit - Made you IMGs work - isphius

how the hell does html work on these forums???

And yes, I remember that firestone incident. I never trust anyone with my car. Im affraid to get the alignment done on my mr2 :( those techs love fast cars. Do you have an extra driver side outside door handle laying around btw? lol.

And btw, I still have one of those same exact mufflers laying around if you want it, Ill sell it cheap haha.

the magnaflow? im looking for a 2.25"

I have stock headers, a 3 inch test pipe, and a 3 inch greddy/trust exhaust on my non-turbo supra and it sounds VERY nice, I always get compliments on how nice it sounds and rarely get the term "rice-burner" because of the deep exhaust note it makes.
