TRD catback. Nice sound. Other benefits??????
I know flowmaster has a kit for the FJ, thats what i plan on using. The sound is awesome, but i dont know about the performance, they say that it gives improved performance but they dont give a number i think i depends on each vehile make.
I'm running a flowmaster with a chop to the pipe to keep it inside the frame, similar to all pro's pipe. The muffler sounds good at first, but after a while I noticed its louder than I want for freeway driving. Biggest gain I noticed was an increase in mpg and a modest boost in acceleration, but I installed a CAI shortly after the exhaust which added to the gains. If you are running any trails more dificult than a dirt road, I would stay away from the TRD - I've seen them catch stuff and get mangled.

I like the sound of the TRD. Nice rumble, but not invasive.
I think it's made by Borla.
