Default Exhaust Opinion's

hey all,


first and foremost yes i used the search feature and came up to this thread (https://www.clublexus.com/forums/per...-thread-1.html), and after clicking through pages after pages i just have a general question. Exhaust wise, after market what would you guys get if money wasn't an issue? My current setup is well, no tips / exhaust delete its pretty loud, and i don't mind it at all but I've noticed i do go through gas a bit more?.. anyways let me know what you guys think? btw i have a 92 sc300, non turbo 5 speed^.

You're seeking the most expensive exhaust set up money could buy but you're also concerned about your gas mileage!?

If you have to ask about gas, don't bother.

I would say ditch the cats if your concerned about MPG's, custom 2.5'' pipe single exit at any muffler shop to a cheap ebay muffler..mandrel bends of course. Thats the best MPG gain I could suggest that wont cost an arm and leg.

But if money is of no concern, like uras pointed out, why even bring up mpg loss? If money isnt an issue, go na-t with a full standalone on low boost, 3'' straight pipe, and a good tune. Power, good sound, could very possibly gain some mileage, and then your turbo.

Seriously, you can buy bolt on mufflers for less than $300 that sound and look great (and no, it's not Megan).
