Hey guys, I'm thinking about getting a new exhaust...about how much would a decent exhaust system cost? I haven't started looking yet, so I figured I'd ask around here first.

TPR...its $450 plus shipping. has the highest gain, has a sweet sound just like the 350z and G35, looks stock/like the TRD exhaust so cops wont hassle you much for it.

I had TRD but thats more of a quiet exhaust. It's quiet at idle and for daily driving but once you get on it it livens up, perfect tone I thought. I got it for 580 @ trdparts4u.com. Trust me you can do it yourself, all you need to do is take off a couple of bolts, there's an installation guide on here somewhere!

Ohhh ok cool, doesn't sound too hard ![smile smile](https://celicahobby.com/forums/images/graemlins/celica/smile.gif) I'll probably go with the TPR you mentioned, Zero ![smile smile](https://celicahobby.com/forums/images/graemlins/celica/smile.gif) Unless there's an even better one out there with a better sound...I had an Audi TT in England...I kinda liked the sound it made.

What do you suggest for a nice exhaust that WOULDNT grab cops attention but still sound good? This is what I found on Kazuma, is this one a good one? http://shop.store.yahoo.com/titanmotorsports/kazexbytrd.html

you cant go wrong with custom, so long as you dont pick a fartcan muffler/exhaust tip...you just custom fit the piping at a local shop, they should do the piping for about 80-100$, weld it on...

custom is the way to go, besides going TRD or TPR. here's my list of what to do: 1. find a nice muffler - IMO, get a Carbon Fiber wrapped muffler preferrebly RACtive or Stinger. 2. find a shop to do the work. get a few qoutes on who can do it cheaper. 3. ask if they do mandrel bends for a clean setup/freer flow. 4. straight-pipe that bitch. choose whether you want it from the axle-back or from the cat-back. this will save you around $250 compared with buying the TRD, TPR, KAZUMA, TSRM...etc... ![thumbsup thumbsup](https://celicahobby.com/forums/images/graemlins/celica/thumbsup.gif)

stay away from Carbon Fiber wrapped. God those are just screaming ricer. TSRM has a deep sound without hurting performance a lot.

Damn Kristin! You're going all out on your car. Rims/Drop, exhaust. Why don't you throw a little money my way. ![thumbsup thumbsup](https://celicahobby.com/forums/images/graemlins/celica/thumbsup.gif) What about dual exhaust. Or is that too much of a pain?

We've already gone over about how you lose too much backpressure with this. Of course, if you're looking for looks only, I guess it works. Personally, I wouldn't go for dualies.

Yeah i like the look but figured that you would lose some. also you'd have to get a rear bumper with a cut out for the second pipe or cut one your self (which would be a pain). Thanks for the info though. ![thumbsup thumbsup](https://celicahobby.com/forums/images/graemlins/celica/thumbsup.gif)

So TSRM, TRD, or Kazuma. I've been told a really loud exhaust prolly won't get me in trouble here. So I'm pretty sure I want to go with Kazuma ![smile smile](https://celicahobby.com/forums/images/graemlins/celica/smile.gif) Kristin
