seems like they changed it, it wont let you do a lot of customization, no trd springs, exhaust, cai. If i can remember it right back when i was still looking at buying the 11s all those were available online.

I ordered one to dealership on way with a lot of options

Is the trd exhaust much better than stock? How hard is it to install yourself or is the stock good.?

The stock exhaust is good and very efficient.
You will get between 0 and 6 additional horsepower with the TRD. The TRD will add sound if thats what your looking for. If you plan on keeping the car stock there is no need for the $550 exhaust. Again it will give you a nice toned sound.
It is easy to install it yourself. It should take no more than 30 minutes to install any axle back exhaust. (Muffler). No welding required.

Thanks, the upgrades I already ordered for my car were

2012, 6speed manual, silver, spoiler, fog lights, bespoke radio, trd sway bars, illuminated door sills, dimming mirror, and buying 7year 100k warranty. 22.5k
All done.

I don't know if sway bars are worth it. I didnt get springs because I want to be able todo 4 wheel alignments. I've read you can't with the lowering springs. For daily driving will sway bars do anything?.

Man we are hi-jacking this thead but all well.
98% of people will say sway bars are not recommended for daily drivers. I agree.
Now if you have a suspension setup and take tight curves really fast and want to have fun on the way to work or course race then yes get them.
If no springs then no swaybars or other misc suspension items. Sounds like you just want a fun daily driver. If you can't see it or hear it or feel it everyday, then don't get it. Thats my motto.
Swaybars look neat under the hood too. But yea, you dont need them.

Thanks for the info, already ordered with sways, oh well. I will turbo this car probably in future years. So the away bars will be eventually used. But for now just a DD here in Alaska.

back on point. I believe if it's just the spoilers then it was because there was an issue with them warping during the shipping process. The dealer actually had to go through 3 spoilers for my car and eventually took it to a body shop to fit it properly.
