Default Just installed new can

Well a buddy sold me his exhaust for $50,the back pipe and the can.He broke the mid pipe on his Apexi and bought another one so sold me the back half and used the new midpipe.

I have to say it sounds great,deep sound,but not droning.I am not sure it is the Apexi exhaust as Apexi has a bigger opening at the end.

Had to install a bushing to the hanger to drop it down about 3/16" and had to trim the bumper a bit.

Much better sound though than the TRD with header and the resonators.I imagine it will start to get louder as time goes on.

That sucks! I have never lived in the cold so I don't think about that kind of stuff. I am from Houston and I live in the Miami area now.

so far she is liking it better than the TRD.the TRD was great till the header,even with resonators it was not great,it lost all the deep tone and was full of barratone.....not good.

It now has no rasp at all,time will tell as the can breaks in how much will come back.
