Default S pipe?

So, what is everyone's opinion on buying one of these? I have a TRD exhaust and have an injen intake on the way (in the mail ). What excatly would an S pipe do for me?

My friend is running one on his 06 without an exhaust and it sounds great, just wondering if it would make my 07 too loud

mid pipe gives the louder sound, not the spipe.

the car won't be too loud so long as the stock header remains in place. the problem is that the trd exhaust is not much less restrictive than the stock exhaust, so you should look into just replacing the whole exhaust on the car from the s-pipe back.

i really like the look of dezod's full exhaust system for n/a tc's.

oh, i forgot, i actually have a zpi s-pipe and mid-pipe that have never been used sitting around my house, since you live in essex, you could shoot me and offer and come pick them up yourself.

Ive got the TRD exhaust, Injen Intake and Invidia S-Pipe setup on my tC right now and I love it. It sounds awesome. With the S-pipe I felt a small gain, It didnt get to much louder, maybe a little bit but the loudness level changes very little if any. I felt like it made the car sound deeper though.

Im currently selling my Invidia S-pipe on the for sale section of the forums. Im asking $100 plus shipping (I dont think itd be much since its only going from NC to Maryland.). It is in perfect condition but I am selling some stuff of my car so I can finish off my Single turbo build on my supra and making power from my tC isnt my goal for it any more. It is just my DD. It has only been on my car since September. You would have the same setup I have right now and it sounds amazing. I always get compliments from people about it (even muscle car owners).

Heres the link to the thread, Im taking off my car on Monday when i get home for spring break. Thats When Ill be able to post pictures. I ensure thought that it is in great condition.

If your interested let me know, if not then GL with your tC.
