[FONT=arial,helvetica,sans-serif]If you're looking for the best exhaust on the market today for your Land Cruiser or LX470, you have come to the right place. The new EMSPowered cat-back exhaust for the UZJ100 is the best available, made in the USA right here at our Texas facility.

* 100% bolt-on installation using factory hangers for very easy installation
* Includes all new gaskets, clamps, and locking hardware
* 2.5" primary piping
* 3.0" final piping
* 100% 304 Stainless Steel construction
* 100% precision mandrel bent piping
* 100% precision TIG welded assembly
* Tucked up as high as possible for maximum ground clearance
* Large oversized muffler for maximum sound deadening and maximum horsepower/torque increase
* Optional resonator/silencer for even more silent operation
* Smooth CNC designed bends and transitions for maximum flow
* Tailpipe routed to leave maximum space for a larger spare tire
* Tailpipe available as 2 options
1) Factory location tailpipe exit
2) Turndown tip up very high before the bumper for maximum ground clearance

There is no other exhaust on the market for the 1998-2007 Land Cruiser and LX470 that flows as much as the EMSPowered exhaust. Other exhausts use small 2.0" and 2.25" primaries and 2.5" final piping. The EMSPowered is built with 2.5" primaries and 3.0" final piping. You will make more horsepower and more torque with the EMSPowered exhaust whether your truck is 100% stock, has headers, is supercharged, or turbo charged.

It's mainly standing at the rear that you can hear the difference. And keep in mind that these sound clips are without a silencer/resonator. If you want it super quiet, you have the option of getting the exhaust with our silencer/resonator installed. Wear some headphones or listen to these with some good speakers. It's VERY hard to judge the sound properly on a laptop or phone:

DYNO RESULTS

Details on how we did the dyno testing:

* All runs done with shifter lever in 2nd gear and "2nd start" button depressed. This assures that we are able to start in 2nd gear and stay in 2nd gear throughout the entire run for the most stable and repeatable results. (numbers would be slightly higher across the board in 3rd gear, but on these trucks there is no way to keep it in 3rd gear without shifting).
* All dyno runs done in 2wd (rear wheels). Front driveshaft removed, center diff locked.
* This was on an LX470 that was totally stock except for 33" BFG tires.

Graph details:

1) Baseline dyno, all stock
2) Dyno with EMSPowered catback exhaust, everything else stock
3) Dyno with EMSPowered catback exhaust and EMSPowered high flow midpipes w/ dual cats (one cat in each pipe)

The first graph is UNCORRECTED numbers. Here at EMSPowered we like uncorrected dyno charts because they do not have any sort of arbitrary calculations that change the true numbers. Uncorrected DynoJet graphs show true power that is being made to the tires with NO other calculations. The second graph is STD correction showing what the numbers are with STD correction factor calculations (calculations to correct numbers based on air temperature, humidity, altitude, etc...). As I mentioned, here at EMSPowered we like UNCORRECTED numbers, as they are the actual numbers being put down with no trickery or weird calculations.

What do you charge to install?

I used to have a dove lease out by your shop...

 

[petrotk40]

That's very nice, do y'all have any header plans in the works?

 

[Anthony.L]

Your post here says the intro price sale expires Oct 30. However on the website it says Sept 30. Which is correct?

 

[highonpottery]

Yay, more aftermarket stuff for 100-series

It's definitely a nice looking exhaust, but what on THIS exhaust makes it almost double the cost of the new DT cat-back exhaust? Because it's shiny?

Introductory price is only $100 more.

Since the only other catback i know of for the 100 is being made by DT, i would have to assume that all the "other guy" comments are directed at their product?

 

[petrotk40]

The EMS exhaust is larger diameter tubing I believe.

 

[mechanixhorseman]

The "other guys" have been in business in corona, ca, since the 1950's. I'd be curious to find out the differences that justify the higher price. Don't take me wrong, competition always benefits the consumer. I'm just curious.

Any dynos been done?

 

[Layonnn]

The EMS exhaust is larger diameter tubing I believe.

The stock tubing is close to 2.25" in diameter, IIRC.
Is there a benefit in going from 2.25" tubing directly into larger 2.5" tubing? (this is all pre-muffler)

with the stock manifolds, I doubt it. The restriction is usually in the manifolds, not the exhaust. With headers though, the added size is probably a good plus. The EMS system is 2.5" to the muffler and 3" the rest of the way.

Install is $280 start to finish. We can do it while you wait or as a drop-off.

Nope, but we will be working on some other 100-series parts.

It was a typo on the website. Fixed. Sale price ends October 31, 2012.

It's a little more, but not double. We use better clamps and hardware. We build these in the USA. Our exhaust uses 2.5" primary piping pre-muffler, and 3" piping post-muffler, whereas the DT uses 2.25" primary and 2.5" after the muffler from what I see in their photos. The larger piping allows for better more unrestricted exhaust flow, more power, more torque. And if you ever plan on adding a supercharger, headers, or turbocharger the larger exhaust will definitely have a noticable gain in power.

The EMS exhaust is larger diameter tubing I believe.

Yup

Any dynos been done?

I'd be happy to do a back to back comparison dyno if someone with one of the DT exhausts wants to drop their truck off for a day.

The stock tubing is close to 2.25" in diameter, IIRC.

Stock primary piping coming off of the cats pre-muffler is closer to 2.0". Yes, there are power gains.

with the stock manifolds, I doubt it. The restriction is usually in the manifolds, not the exhaust. With headers though, the added size is probably a good plus. The EMS system is 2.5" to the muffler and 3" the rest of the way.

Even with the very sluggish 80-series 1FZFE we see very reasonable power gains on the dyno with our exhaust while still on stock manifolds. Here is a dyno with our 80-series 1FZFE exhaust:

You've seen their clamps and hardware? Or know the brand? thats a very ambiguous statement without some facts to back it up…Im not arguing with you just would like to see some proof

Also are you implying that DT does not build theirs in USA?

 

[12guns]

Any sound clips or videos? How's the Db vs. stock set up? I had a 4.7 4runner that I tried a Magnaflow (only muffler, not full cat-back) and it had a HORRIBLE drone that I could not stand. I later found out I bought the shorter muffler and needed the 2" longer muffler which people say has less drone. I would love to get better air flow and a slightly meaner growl, but without the highway drone at 2k rpms.

 

[mechanixhorseman]

That magnaflow muffler is made in Japan. Not that I believe their is anything wrong with japanese manufacturing. I do drive a landcruiser after all but let's call it what it is.

 

[Sandroad]

I need a new muffler and will be putting in a cat-back system this fall. However, I cannot have anything louder than stock either under acceleration or cruising on the highway. Some reviews or sound comparisons will have to be available before I decide what to do.

I completely agree that if you have forced induction (SC or turbo) that opening the exhaust to more freely flowing, larger diameter is beneficial as you have more gas that needs to be expelled.

I have always read that if you increase the diameter of the exhaust without increasing the air going into the engine you will usually reduce low end torque and slightly raise upper end HP. Is this not the case?

FWIW, the only reason i mentioned DT is that this is in tech and not the classified section.

They're all shown in the thread introducing their exhaust. Have a look for yourself and compare what you see. They use "squish" style clamps, not "seal" type clamps like we do.

We stuffed the longest and fattest possible performance muffler under there. It has a very nice deep tone without being loud. From inside the truck with the windows closed you can barely tell that there is a performance exhaust lurking under the truck. With the windows rolled down or standing behind the truck at idle or in a parking lot you can hear the nice deep sound, and it's not too loud or over-bearing. When cruising on the highway I personally couldn't tell the difference between the sound of our new exhaust versus the stock exhaust. For those people that want an even quieter setup we offer our exhaust with our built in silencer/resonator. I'll try and get some sound clips for you guys.

Yes, you're correct, going to big on the piping on a naturally aspirated engine will in some cases cause you to lose low end torque. It takes experience to get the piping size correct for each engine. On this 4.7L V8 2.5" primaries and 3" tail section are the perfect combination for maximum power gains without any torque loss. I'd be glad to dyno before an after for free for any locals here that get the exhaust so that the community can have some solid graphs and "proof" to use to help decide what route is best for their truck.
