TRD is about 88dB. Kazuma is about 118. Legal is 95 and under. And yes, it will pass smog, but they won't even bother letting your car in for testing when they hear you start it up on the other side of town.

I used to have it and I got stopped at idle once by a local cop. he gave me a noise pollution ticket, and at idle. thats how loud it is. But it does sound awesome.

Would any one of you guys happen to have a sound clip or can get one of the kazuma exhaust? or know where there is one? I'd like to hear how loud this exhaust really is hehe.

Kazuma is obnoxiously loud... I don't see the reason to purchase it since the gains over TRD are minimal

The gains are at least double of what TRD puts out. I wouldn't consider that minimal.
