If you're going to put a 3in exhaust and start hacking it up with resonators and high flow cats you may as well just get a smaller exhaust and call it a day.

I see what you did there, but what a mighty crush bend . I'm probably going to put the TRD axle-back on in a couple of months, still keeping the Agency Power mid-pipe on though.

well i went to the shop to get it installed and it was literally tip was literally pointed to the inside edge of my bumper, if that makes sense. it would have clearly burned my kenstlye lip kit. i didnt think there was a difference either, but i had them change it anyways. plus this way i positioned it exactly how i wanted

You'll find debates about crush bent and mandrel bent exhaust all over the net. With crush bent tubing the exhaust flow is restricted at the bends where it's done. The exhaust is no better than an exhaust made mandrel bent at the diameter of the crush bend. If the exhaust is done with mandrel bends from the start the exhaust flow stays smooth and that little bit of power is gained. I know a shop nearby I think has pre-bent tubing that's mandrel bent to trim to size to whatever and the piping needs to be. If I were to go custom on my exhaust I'd get mandrel bends, I'm just picky like that, will it cost more? Yes. At least I won't be going, "I should have..." after all is said and done.

I feel the same about my Agency Power, but it has some scratches on it though, some are from the clamp from adjustments, some from driving down a road with uneven pavement(it actually dropped down into a section of dirt because of construction). Luckily I still have the TRD in storage that I'll swap to when I go slammed, I even have the black OEM too lol. I def do not want to put a dent into the AP exhaust. Have you thought of going custom?

yeah, plenty of people have burned their lips and bumpers with the AP exhaust, its just a matter of knowing how to adjust it, its a combination moving the bracket and the rear donut at the same time, its definitely a 2 person job!

but i really like the angle of yours!, just sucks that you dont have the shiny finish on the rear section, lol
