Some Exhaust Questions
Hey guys, I have some questions about what I want to do, but if some questions have been asked a lot sorry that I am repeating them because I didn't find the answers I was looking for.
First off, I have the TRD axle back and want to get a mid pipe and possibly an s-pipe?. I have been looking at Megan Racing and also Tsudo mid pipes. My question is that the Megan pipes are 2.25in diameter and the Tsudo pipe is 2.5, so is there going to be a big change in tone or loudness between the 2?
Second, from what I understand but I can be wrong, the TRD axle back pipe is 2.25in diameter? If so, would it just be better to stick with Megan mid pipes so its all 2.25in instead of it going to 2.5in than back into a 2.25in?
And third, is the s-pipe worth getting? How much does it change the tone of the car if it does? And last question would be the same about piping sizes would be best? All have matching 2.25in diameter or have the s-pipe and mid pipe be 2.5 than shrink back down to the TRD 2.25in diameter or maybe I am over thinking all of this?

I would go with the Megan, the Tsudo had a little fitment issue that I didn't like. Also the s-pipe will give the exhaust a deeper tone because the factory s-pipe is pretty restrictive. The difference in pipe sizing won't be a problem.
Now, I am just wondering because I am not sure if I am getting a supercharger or not...all depends, but would having 2.25in exhaust be fine? I hear that some people say don't go any over 2.5in with supercharger but didnt say anything about 2.25in and Im just curious.
I know for n/a 2.25in is good and I'm pretty sure it will be fine for the supercharger also. I've had the tsudo and I did feel a little loss in the low end for daily driving. I know some people who even ran with just a trd exhaust, so 2.25in piping will be fine for either supercharged or n/a.
The Megan midpipe is not a true 2.25" because it tappers towards the end to that diameter. It's practically 2.5" from the beginning of the midpipe till it gets to the end which tappers down. Honestly just go custom. It's cheaper and you can put whatever you want on it such as a different resonator or even a high flow cat if needed.
