Default 98 GS300 Turbo Exhaust Suggestions

I have a 1998 GS300 with a JDM Aristo 2jz-gte vvt-i swap, and it currently has a custom 3'' exhaust but no mufflers. The stock mufflers are still attached for looks but does nothing, and was wondering if someone can suggest a turbo exhaust for me that is dual exhaust. I believe HKS offers one but I can't find it on their site.

useless post, AGAIN.


best bang for your buck would be weld in two magnaflow pt# 14829 mufflers. They sound the best for weld in mufflers, and are fairly cheap to buy and install. Outside of that, you could try and find an L-tuned setup like mine, but i think you'd be more into the sound of the magnaflow and i'm sure itll probably perform a little better.

Your 3" is useless if you are still using stock mufflers. The flow is only as good as the smallest pipe diameter in your exhaust system. The only exhaust system for the GS that I think will actually give you any benefit is the EVO II.
However; if I were you and since you alredy have a 3" system that you are not using, I would install 3" inlet universal mufflers, the brand choice can be up to you.

Not using stock mufflers. Thanks for the input though. As stated, the stock mufflers are still attached for looks, it serves no purpose and is not attached to the 3'' pipe...I also have a Vband downpipe setup so I need something that will flow GOOD!

FUJITSUBO Legalis Super R. Full 3" from the turbo to mufflers. I LOVE it, looks good, performs well, and is a very quiet exhaust.

I personally think that looks too big.
