Default Exhaust ?

Why doesn't any of the big name exhaust manufacturers make a cat back exhaust for the Xb? Axle Back exhausts are just for show, I want something that will give me real power.

P.S. Mangnaflow does not count as a respectable exhaust, personally I think the thing sounds like crap on the Xb.

The cat is part of the exhaust pipe meaning you cant make a bolt on to the cat. You would need to make the whole exhaust including the cat. That would cost a lot. Otherwise you need to cut the pipe at the cat and then weld an exhaust there. Big companies like to make bolt on exhausts so you can do it yourself.

Check www.preisionmuffler.com. Gabe also carries Anza, since you are not a fan of the other brand, he also custom bends exhast and has done a couple custom flowmaster systems. he owns a Xb so he knows what he is talking about. Bill

I guess you haven't heard of the stylis manifold back maganflow system to really say anything can you now. :twisted: But than again I think you have an automatic scion, which would explain the reason you didn't like the sound of the magnaflow catback.

They make an axle back, that they call a cat back, but in reality it is a axle back. Unless you can show me a pic of the cat back.
