Default Anybody have sound clip of Precision Axleback for tC?

Looking for a clip of the magnaflow axleback they use, I hear nothing but praises about the exhaust, buy yet hear nothing...

Want a good sounding exhaust without header yet..

My options:
TRD
Precision
Injen

So far its TRD for me..

We Drive Scions is getting one this week and he has promised to post pics and videos. He also has the Megan header so it will be a good indication of how well it handles rasp.

Yeah, I don't know why everyone is going crazy about these, it has to be the ugliest axel back in existence, and as much as it's probably negligable performance difference, crushing shows me a standard of production that just isn't up to par.

Im in if it kills the rasp...Im not trying to show off the underside of my car anyway. The crush bending will have a marginal if any impact on HP. It has to flow better than the stock setup and probably even the TRD setup with its sharp 90 degree bends. Even the TRD setup adds a few HP on the dyno.

actualy if you want a good sounding better then stock flowin exhasut get an axle back and an spipe this exhaust wont flow better since its crush bent it disrupts the air flow and also





borrowed from dynomax

our stock is mandrel i have it sitting in my back yard if you want pics of it the only crushed part is the spipe



(i know there not the most in depth examples but there simple and every one can under stand them )

Ive already got the s-pipe...what Im thinking of doing is getting the CC full kit with cat and resonator and using the same muffler as the Precision kit to tone down the sound if its too loud. Thats why Im so iterested

Not worried.... Muffler stuff is cake... and Stylis is the man when it comes to support....

I'll post if I have any issues.... but not anticipating any... It's gonna be a good day...

The Sun is out and it's a bit chilly..... Gotta heat up the garage!

Well... It's on... and I love the way it sounds..... Very deep at low idle and not raspy at all... still has the sound of a 4 banger... but nice....

Plus, for some reason, I got my lower end back.... ever since my Injen... my lower end torque was lame... now I get more response.... I like it...

I'm having a REALLY hard time getting sound clips, as I'm alone tonight... so I need to get someone around to move the mic for me to get the right distance to avoid crackling...

The real deep tones don't get picked up on the mic too well...

I'll see what I can figure out... probably tomarrow before I can get anyone to help with it.

For like 30 seconds if I rev it high when it just starts up...which you shouldn't do anyways. After that.... Nope....

Sounds like a 4 banger with a performance exhaust.... Nifty....

Tomarrow I am going to give it a shot... should work out.

Sounds very deep...my walls were shaking form the bass. It seems like it might drone a little bit at higher RPMS...is that the case? Also is it possible to get clips from outside the car?

Freeway speeds are quiet.... for me... I'm also deadoned up significantly, so I might not notice while others may.... It only bugs me a little right about idle... as it's sooo deep.... but normal cruising, you can't really tell it's there.... I don't hear it at 60-80

I need a partner for any more sound clips... as I'm not laying my laptop next to the road to drive by it a few times.....

My camera didn't work out....
