Jeff (Lip) is a site sponsor, and works and/or owns Partshippers. He's come up w/ some good stuff for Scions.

Jeff is very knowledgable on the xB also.

(I'm sure someone will post contradictory info, always have, always will.)

I went with the PrecisionMuffler axleback and love it, but I didn't get the xmas special...boohoo. It fits like a glove, easy to install, sounds and looks great. Fast shipping too!! Thanks Gabe!

I've been running the P-muffler axle backs since they first came out and loved them, I've tested quite a few for Gabe. Now I have the first known passanger side exiting exhaust and I love it!

I haven't personally dealt with the distributor for Strup, but I have dealt with Precision Muffler and Gabe.

I can say he'll work with you on what you need and how you need it, and if you have any questions or just wonder about something he'll be more than happy to answer for you. He's been onboard supplying Scions since August of 2003 and knows them really well. As for a ricey sound, there are no worries of that with an exhaust from Precision Muffler, they are each designed for the application to make sure it sounds good (automatice/manual, etc).

I'm sure there are good and bad reviews of any piece of hardware for sale on here, but if you're looking for service I know Gabe can deliver on it.

I love the PrecisionMuffler.com axleback for the Auto tranny. It looks like an aftermarket exhaust without looking like EVERY other exhaust out there. I don't really care for the round canister look plus I hear they are more prone to droning sounds especially at freeway speeds. Mine sounds pretty good at cruising speeds and great on acceleration and especially on a downshift to 2nd.

And I can get into my driveway without scraping the thing. David, you'd have to park on the street or scrape like crazy...
