BTW the other stuff I learned in the process... if you add a super charger anything you do to the exhaust will not matter from a performance perspective. If you live in Cali like me and can only install short tube headers, don't do it. All they do is remove low end torque for not a lot of gains at upper RPMs. If you live in a state where you can put a full on race exhaust w/ long tube headers.. than you'll see gains across the board. (no comment on value (cost vs hp increase).

Longs plus high flow cats make a HUGE difference...... hoping to finally Dyno next week but seat of the pants would say 50hp or so....

Sounds damn good. For me, for an ultimate comfort cruiser/off-roader, I hate to admit I prefer the stock exhaust. I like a quiet road trip, after all, we all drive out to the wilderness to get some peace and quiet. A supercharger I'm all for though.
End of old-man rant.

Well... you're certainly going to hear your supercharger even w/ stock exhaust
And that's the idea of a low/no drone system, you don't hear it when cruising down the highway. You hear it when you punch it past a Heep. And again, for me personally, I didn't like how low the stock secondary "muffler" hangs I just see it as a potential liability. Last thing you want during your peace and quiet is to deal w/ a leaky exhaust system?I had a supercharged 3rd Gen 4Runner with a URD underdrive pully, it didn't bother me nearly as much as the Banks exhaust on my Tundra. But, like I said, different strokes for different folks. It certainly sounds good though. I try to avoid unnecessary noises, one of the many reasons I don't want kids

Here in Kalifornistan...I plan to just replace the resonator with a straight pipe for additional clearance & maybe tuck a bit higher with a bend or two. I believe @Willy beamin did this and it really helps the tuck. Curious about effect on sound, but I suspect it's minimal.
Depending on the tires you run the exhaust note may disappear all together
KM2's kill the exhaust note entirely
A few short clips - one at Kooks the other parked - I didn't dare go above 2500 rpm for fear of pissing off the nieghbors......GF is back tonight so I'll post a few accelerating clips...
the ally one.....
I was under the impression that the Doug Thorley headers bolted directly the the CAT assemblies (next in line) is that not the case? the CAT back system seems like it has not happened yet I think because the muffler has those specific bends on the inlet side (as apposed to the straight inlets on the Tundra with 5.7)
Cat back system exists, you can get from @dirtydeeds industries.
If you're in a state that allows the long tube headers then going with DT/Kooks/JBAs or other long tubes will be an improvement in performance. If not though... like here in CA, don't bother with replacing headers with the short tube headers, you'll only lose hp and tourque. Go cat back only for less restrictive flow and better sound.

Bringing back a dead horse, Gibson has one out now for the 200. Single and dual.

this is exactly why electric power is taking over. performance increase conversations are 80% less complicated and 20% more effective. i'd leave it stock until you find a wrecked Tesla P100 and swap it
Hey, does anybody have a stock LC200 exhaust for a 6speed truck that they want to sell?
Or, use as 50% credit towards a brand new BAmufflers catback system?

I have mine from a 2016 with 8 speed. Is it completely different?
Yep. Totally different. We have the 8speed fixtured. We can also make a system for the 6speed. But we want to do the 6speed the new way like the 8speed system.
