Great information, I’m shopping around for a updated dual exhaust system for my 08 Tundra.

I had a local muffler shop put on complete duels Borla Pro XS. Borla makes TRD. I got it installed for $400. It also has Stainles Steel rolled tips. Sounds very low rumble until you punch it.

JD – Performance (I forgot) – likely negligible gain. TRD’s system adds just a few horsepower, and a hand made system might even subtract some power…but not enough to make a difference (at least not in the right hands). Most good muffler guys will copy the routing of popular aftermarket systems and/or OEM systems to keep things as performance positive as possible.

JD – That price is awesome. Quality of the mufflers is just fine (Flowmaster is a good brand), but the sound is hard to say. It depends on how they route and bend the pipes. I would suggest you get a referral or two from this shop before handing them your money. Check out this post for some tips on finding a good shop: http://www.tundraheadquarters......fications/

Advice!? Just recently purchased an 06′ 4.7L tundra limited and was looking for aftermarket exhaust.. A local muffler shop around my area informed me they can install a flowmaster 50 series for around $200. Can’t afford a Borla or TRD system, so I was thinking about going this route. Question is: sound quality? Price?.. Also slightly concerned about performance. I don’t tow anything right now, but don’t want to give up torque for sound. Thanks in advance and any advice would be appreciated.

Steve – No suggestion on product, but this problem is pretty typical. I found a good thread on some different polishes here: http://www.autopia.org/forum/c.....-pics.html

As a matter of fact i did try some chrome polish which seemed to help a bit but didnt bring back that orignal shine,was afraid with the extreme temps in the tips I might have been adding insult to injury. I know they are just tips and not that big of deal but I am kinda anal bout my Tundra’s look. Any product suggestion?

Steve – Have you tried some metal polish? That should clear it up.

In just a few short months of ownership, my TRD exhaust tips went from a polished stainless look to a sort of brown been to hot look. Is this normal and irreversible?

Chris – Somehow I missed your question from February – my bad. To answer your question, it’s probably due to one exhaust pipe being longer than the other on the dual rear exit setup (routing around the spare). Have you contacted Magnaflow to confirm?
