supra exhaust
My guess is that it would work except that the muffler would be hanging too low.

I've used the GReddy MX before. Now I have a custom design (4" to dual 3" exhaust, Vband).

There are few other exhausts available though, Greddy PE and HKS Hi-power.

Supra exhausts come up a few inches too short. You can have a short pipe made inbetween the catback and the header to connect the two and just figure out someway to get the hangers to work right.

I'm running a simple custom made mild steel cat. back exhaust system... stage one done (not enough cash at the time) which is hi-flow cat, 3" piping with twin slim resonators, 2.5" piping to hi-flow mufflers and twin 4" tips.

No it will not work, I bought the RS*R supra exhaust, and had to have a little bit of custom work done to make it fit right. For starters...

As stated earlier, the piping is too short.
The brackets are not in the right spot.
The muffler itself hung too low.
The piping is ALMOST going in the right route, but it had to be bent again.

So if you are wondering if it works, Yes, with custom modifications, but NO it will not just bolt right on. Your best bet would be one that works directly for the SC. I should have done that.

I know one person that built up an sc300 put the hks ti exhaust on his car... anyone know how he did that? and also, any links to those exhaust systems you posted? other than the greddy and jic that is, since I've seen a few places that have those.

If you go single, shouldn't you also somehow patch up that empty space from the other exhaust?

believe it or not- most Japanese soarers with single exit exhaust dont fill it in... However, there are a few kits that are set up for single exit.

It doesn't look too bad having a single set up with the extra hole though- but it does look a tad weird-
