For those who knock OEM exhaust, do you know that Toyota will warrantee the system for as long as you own the vehicle?

Before I turbo'd my '82 BJ60 about 4-5 years ago I had the OEM system on it and it had been replaced by Toyota at least once. When I put the turbo on I went to 2 1/2" pipe and no muffler so the OEM system came off. I ended up putting the old OEM exhaust under an '84 BJ60 that I had at the time as my work truck. The '84 had an aftermarket system and the OEM was quieter and I think a little more power as well.

If you're keeping the truck and not planning on a turbo consider OEM as long as Toyota still has the warrantee going.
