Aftermarket Exhaust
Several exhaust setups I’m looking at for sale and would appreciate any owners experiences on quality, fit and most importantly sound.
1 Magnaflow
2 Top Speed
3 Megan
FWIW; I will be using headers and aftermarket cats with a larger intermediate pipe all SS
Thanks for owner applied responses

Maybe if you Read the post; I Only wanted owners reviews but thanks all the same. I’ve seen the Top secret vid. Tracked down a Megan And several Magnaflo. Means very little to me if it’s not in person because people (“brutha”) use smart phones with terrible audio quality I’ve searched this out and wanted real owners who have one.

Thanks, I can make my own but it takes more time than I have right now. I can work SS and going for 3” mid pipe with high flo Cats. Really wanted to get some owner first hand reviews. Videos don’t work for me. Thanks though

I did some preliminary measurements and 3” is do able but It’s very tight and honestly I doubt it’s worth the time.
The route I’m tentatively taking is a Megan rear muffler section behind custom individuals 2.5” mid section.
I’m going with high flo cats and quality resonators to ensure flo but cut interior drone. Reason why I started this thread was to possibly check other aftermarket users and see how their results varied in sound quality and cabin drone.
I do like the Magnaflo quality but I’ve used their products several times before with objectionable dB levels and drone.
I have an 86 with a Beams swap that gets a total custom exhaust so we’ll be well practiced at fab for an SC exhaust
Thanks for looking and sharing

Exhaust diameter does not effect drone at all. That purely is a side effect of uncancelled exhaust pulses. But cancelling that involves a true X pipe and sizeable resonators which do add substantial backpressure making the 2.5” a better choice
When I mentioned I was reworking the full exhaust my son (he’s an mechanical engineer) said 2.5” would be optimum and would actually add torque further up the rev range; headers, intake, an ECU tune and very likely cams he said don’t bother with a 2 1/4”
When I mentioned I was reworking the full exhaust my son (he’s an mechanical engineer) said 2.5” would be optimum and would actually add torque further up the rev range; headers, intake, an ECU tune and very likely cams he said don’t bother with a 2 1/4”
I put a 2 1/2” SS full exhaust on our 4Runner and it works great. Actually tows better and gets >2 mpg above what we had.
