Hey guys, was looking to get a little bit of better sound from my sc300.
most likely going to take it to a muffler shop and have them do a custom exhaust.

BUT to cut down on price i plan on buying key parts of the exhaust online and brining them in there and let them install it with the custom piping.

So i would have to get headers, 1 high flow cat (not 2 right?) and then dual mufflers.

also another question, what size piping should i have them do?

 

just do a simple cat back exhaust leave the headers / y pipe and cat on the car.

 

so leave stock headers and replace from the cat back? that what your saying.

can you give a little bit more detail? sorry if im a lil newbie but all info is greatly appreciated

 

anything more then just a cat back on a stock 2jz-ge will become overly loud and with the aftermarket header it will become raspy a little bit, the over all power gain is going to be very minimal.

 

those axle backs and catbacks are rips offs, best way to go is custom, but if you want some a nice sound for cheap do what i did, i had the rear mufflers removed and had some nice magnaflow tips welded on as well, looks and sounds great very deep at low rpms and not droney at all on the freeway

 

Wut eva you do dont be like me i jus got mine done on my sc300 and i got custom pipes and i deleted the cat and resonators...lol so the car is crazy loud now...wuteva u do make sure u have a resonator...

 

i was thinking about doing custom exhaust too, like axle or cat-back... does anybody have any good suggestions on a muffler, for a single exit system, that you can have a muffler place put on an SC300?? or if you have custom exhaust single-exit exhaust, what size piping is best?

 

I have custom 3'' from the cats back with deleted resonators and ebay mufflers and it sounds just fine...not raspy at all, nice smooth tone all the way through the rpm range. i'll load a vid on youtube and post the link

 

ok, well mabey its a little raspy, but when I'm driving it has a really even tone.

dammit!! they dont have speakers on my work computers... i cannot hear!

 

yea i also have deleted resonators and ebay mufflers...and mine sounds jus like urs...lol but i deleted my cat too and went wit 2'5" pipes from the headers back so my sc spits out fire if i hit it hard...lol

 

still havent heard the clip, but how much was did your custom setup cost? and what are your mufflers made of (stanless, titanium, etc...)??

 

I like the sound,especialy at idle

 

I dont remember how much the mufflers were, but the pipes, with a Y-pipe was $175 at a shop here in Houston. They did an excellent job, mandrel bends, and made the Y-pipe on the spot.

The mufflers are stainless

 

Your exhaust is exactly what I want, except I want single, can you PLEASE find those mufflers again?
