Default Thinking of Adding the TRD Exhaust to my AEM intake

Hi guys,

I want to add a TRD Exhaust to my XA. I have been happy with the AEM intake, although I would like a little more HP, and a little deeper sound from the muffler. BUT, I am concerned about the noise factor at 75 mph+. Is it really that loud, like I've read in other posts?

Do many of you have both installed in either your XA or XB?

I would appreciate the feedback.

Jr.,

The TRD exhaust sounds great, I've driven an xA with the AEM and TRD exhaust and it wasn't noisy at all. Don't know if it will put a huge increase to power but it will make your car definitely sound nice.
