I don't think it's too bad on rasp unless you have an aftermarket header... most tC exhausts are the same way.

the only good sh vanassa has on her is the 18in rims from toyota and a borla exhaust. im bought to drop her, im getting the front chamber kit. im getting a injen cai. i basically wont to build her all motor. the only thing is that everyone i see with headers there tc makes the rasp noise so i don't know if i am going to buy headers but it will be kinda wearied without them

If you do plan on putting on an aftermarket header at some point, you may want to look into the Precision Muffler axleback instead of the HKS. It'll help cut down on the rasp if you do swap that header.

i looked at the Precision Muffler axle back exhaust and thats the look im trying to steer away from. it looks just like the borla exhaust thats on my car now and it sounds great if you like the nice deep sound in the 4000 rpm and under. but i wont a mean look from behind when im winning and for it to give me that little teaspone of power that i can get. thats why im going with. besides its the hks exhaust is the most popular one in our website. thank you

Maybe it's just me... but I can barely comprehend what you write. Is English not your native language? Seriously, I'm asking... it reads like it is not.

No, it's not what I have... (but really, your above posts were sort of difficult to decipher ).

I have the TRD... but I don't plan to put a header on any time soon (or at all, probably), so I'm very happy with the look and sound.

I suggested the Precision one b/c that's a very common one that people use and like to help cut down on the rasp with an aftermarket header... that's all. I did add another suggestion to your other thread though.
