in the next few weeks, i will be making cat-back exhausts, so i will take the stock one and cut it in half and take a pic if you think it will be interesting...
Thanks for the picture . I thought there is a heat valve thing inside the muffler. So when the car is at idle the vlave is semi-closed and that is the reason that the exhaust out flow is very weak during idle.
Obviously there is not.
Thanks
I always thought it would be fun to cut open the top like in that picture, gut the whole muffler and weld in a tube like this...
...and then weld the top back on. It would look completely stock from the outside but in theory it should give a little more power and if not that then at least it may sound um, interesting.
appears the only diff. is the port length&diaameters in the middle of the toyota vs the "non toyota" version, which could change the sound but ever so slightly along with flow rates of the exhaust....other than that id stick with the non-toyota and pay $100 less

it sprobbaly less hassle to buy one for $30.
it would make the same power (more) then street magnaflows.
it would be freaking loud unless you pack the whole muffler, then it would be quiet-ish becuase the muffler is BIG.
