Default Straight pipe thread. input appreciated!

Im thinking of straight piping all the way back from the cat or resinator(not sure yet) so as to the point of this thread. If anyone has an SC300 with straight pipe set up. pics and video would be awesome. Im sure alot of people could benefit from this. BTW, the guy said it would cost me 110, maybe less. Also accepting SC400 input, either will be fun for the thread

So come on peeps, lets seem them if you got them. Theres a little pic of my car for fun.

straight pipe with a muffler sounds good. sounds like a supra. with turbo its quieter but when the boost comes on cover your ears.

I6 is just hard to make it sound sexay with a straight pipe. A 1UZ or GTE sounds good though.

I have the resinator delete on mine, only cost 50 bucks to take the resinators off and weld in a pair of straight pipes, nice tone to it but thats it.

staight pipe on an na sc300 will sound very raspy and annoying, rite now i have stock exhaust with no mufflers and it sounds great, its a deep smooth tone, loud when you floor it, quiet at cruising speeds, not to drony, its just right
