Okay so I'm probably gonna have a DC header and I need some suggestions on which company should get my $$$ for the exhaust (for my tc). I want it to sound good (i've heard my boy's TRD and like it) but I don't want it to be TOO loud! I have a five year old girl and don't want to annoy her. I also don't want to spend more than $500 for it.

What should I get? :pray:

Im getting the Precision Muffler axleback..Im hoping it will cure all the rasp from my AW header. It is designed to be quiet with a header which I also like...oh yeah...its under $300 shipped..

A video has already been posted by We Drive Scions and I will make videos after I install mine.

Everyone who's heard mine likes it pretty well...

The TRD exhaust with a header setup is a no-no... raspville....

and PrecisionMuffler.com's setup is cheaper as well...

I'm actually leaning towards the PM axleback as opposed to the Injen. From what I heard in WeDriveScions' video, there's little to no rasp in the higher end RPM, which'll make me happy since I do nothing but drive highway when I go to work.

I wonder how it would sound with just an Injen SRI and no a/m headers?

Probably even deeper... The header raises the tone a bit...

:ponder: Bonus!

Oh man, I have to bug my girlfriend about another christmas present. :lol:

Thread titled "Official PrecisionMuffler.com AxleBack Thread.... With Sound"

Thanks!!

^ Your welcome... It's what we do.

I've got the HKS high power exhaust and DC header and it sounds great! It sounds deeper than the TRD exhaust without the header....my second choice was the evo system, ive heard that sounded good with the header too...

On that PM muffler, would it change the tone at all if you had a muffler shop put a smaller tip on it? Everything I've heard about it is good, but that tip seems a little bit too big for my taste. I'd like to have a close to stock look to the car. Or do those pictures just make it look bigger than it is?

---edit---
nevermind, i went to the website to see some other pics. It looks pretty good with that tip actually, so nevermind. Is the piping on the muffler not mandrel bent?

The tip is the same size as the stock tip...and it is not mandrel bent..but the HP differences are minimal with piping that short. The muffler itself is the most restrictive part and the PM muffler flows way better than the stocker. You probably wouldnt be able to measure the difference between the same setup with mandrel or crush bends on the dyno

I am guessing thats one way they kept the cost down? other than that, it looks like a nice muffler. I'll probably be investing in one of these over the TRD (because I plan on gettin headers too)

Mine will be here this week..I will also post clips inside and outside of the car under normal driving and WOT conditions.

Is there a header I can get that will sound ok with the Greddy Evo exhaust?

As far as I have heard, all axle backs, except ours, are pretty loud with a header on.

Think I'm goin DC header, and either DC, HKS, Greddy, or Borla Exhaust

How does the PM axleback sound with out the headers??? Would it sound good on my A/T???? I really like the way the PM axleback looks

Thanks.

Be aware... the Injen, HKS, and greddy exhausts all present rasp with headers....

Although the HKS is a bit better.

The PM axle back is really quiet with a stock tC, it has a nice quiet tone with no noise at freeway speeds. :D

Has anyone tried the AW header with the Borla axle back? I already have the Borla nad to sounds nice although it has drone that's a little annoying at low rpm's. I have the AW header and Injen CAI on order.

Borla and TRD are basically the same, raspville for sure.

Really? Have you heard the combo? What rpm do you get the rasp?

Well I guess I will find out once I install the header and intake. Worse case I'll get something different. Until then...

anyone else?

^ Plus it'll up your drone even more....

Trust us... you'll get rasp.

Try the CC exhaust inserts, its fairly cheap, would be nice to try.

Trust us... you'll get rasp.

Thanks... I see once I get things installed. If I get rasp and the drone increases then I think the Precision axle or cat back is the way to go.
