    Sounds like garbage and most likely lost low end power due to the exhaust scavenging effect being removed.

    Who cares? This never shows everything anyway.

    Gamma Ray prefers Toyoda's straight pipe to come right up into the bottom of his driver's seat from what I remember...

    No, that's Akio Toyoda's anal probe. It's entirely different. Toyoda-san was quite gentle today, by the way. Definitely provided me plenty of pleasure.

    I doubt anyone would fess up to having put dual fart cannons on a perfectly good 4R. It now sounds like a very large Honda Civic. What's so funny is how the exhaust shop guy is so proud of how it now sounds.

    A Civic never sounded that silly. To me its like two 3 cylinder geo metros reving at the same time. Maybe it should have an X pipe to balance it out.

    Just wait for these dumb EV sports cars. You can select from many stupid exhaust notes. It will probably be like your phone choices a multitude of dumb noises.

    Gosh I cannot wait take away some more classic masculine American enjoyment.

    I'm going to make my EV sports car play Ram Ranch for the ultimate classic masculine American enjoyment.

    Wait a minute. Can I choose the Batmobile? Or the Mach 5? Or the rumble of the Hannibal Twin 8? That would be cool.

    No straight pipe on anything and burnouts are lame because even the Runner can light one up.

    It sounds like a Stovebolt 6 with a split manifold, which is cool on an old low rider or cruiser. Not so much in this case

    My Viper truck sounded like a UPS truck no matter what i put on for exhaust, but she could scream.

    I can't believe the dude drove 8 hours from michigan and paid someone to make his truck give everyone a migraine on the freeway. If nobody locally wanted to touch this job, that should have been a sign lol.

    Do you know why that engine (same as the Viper) sounded like that? It's got a very strange firing sequence where the cylinders alternate between firing at 90 degrees and 54 degrees apart. So it ends up sounding like a big 5 cylinder. A buddy had one of the early ones and the only way to fix the sound was a very expensive set of headers that had certain tubes cross under and fire in the opposite side collector. There's my Cliff Claven moment for the day.

    Fire 1, rotate 90
    Fire 10, rotate 54
    Fire 9, rotate 90
    Fire 4, rotate 54
    Fire 3, rotate 90
    Fire 6, rotate 54
    Fire 5, rotate 90
    Fire 8, rotate 54
    Fire 7, rotate 90
    Fire 2, rotate 54

    I can’t speak to all those numbers, but i had stainless steel headers and 3” cat back exhaust. It did surprise quite a few people on the street, she was hard to beat.
