does anybody have kazuma exhaust. i know its illegal(too loud) but are the gains what they say they are. i read 20hp and when i called the company that sells it(west covina toyota) they told me that is what trd claims.

also if i remove my resonator what if anything will that do for me.

im sure if you take out the resonator on the kazuma it will be 3x louder and will sound aweful...

The Kazuma is a full catback system, I think that it removes the resonator. Probably why its so loud.

yeah the kazuma is technically supposed to remove the cat too, but a lot of people get it put on right after the cat.

I put a typeR sticker on my GT.. added 45hp at the wheels!!!! hehe... now I just need to steal someones GTS emblem.. that's worth another 40

I keep hearing that TRD has the best real gains.. I doubt you could get 20hp from exhaust... anyone?

You won't get 20 hp from just the muffler. You could maybe get 15-20 hp if you get an aftermarket exahust, header, Hi-Flow cat.

INTAKE INTAKE INTAKE... first mod.. hands down.. do that before you even think about exhaust, and ESPECIALLY before a header.
