I actually heard the exhaust today for the first time in real life. It sounded amazing. I was blown away. Thanks Tamoosh for the demo!
'20 TRD Pro Exhaust

You drove it or heard it driving by? What did you like about it?

Just an idea for the Pro owners who don't like this.
I think another plus of the system is the side discharge, aka little to no exhaust when rear window is down. Also it looks great.
Rather than swap for a stock system just grab a front pipe and have a shop weld it to the trd rear. They line up perfectly except stock is 2 bolts and trd has 3. You'll end up with a quiet runner with trd looks!

We met up, heard the start up and a few rev's.. Unfortunately didn't get the driving experience, but all in all solid.
How easy would this be? And how costly do you think

Welding could be free for someone with a stainless welder. I'm sure you could clamp it but not recommend. Not sure what a front pipe cost but sometimes they are free, I had trouble giving my stock exhaust away from my 19. A shop with a lift wouldn't take long, but not sure of cost
I’m a little slow, what are you suggesting? Front pipe?
I thought about buying an ORP exhaust and Cut and weld pro side exit

From what Ive seen online the muffler is sold as the front pipe- goes from the cat to the rear tail pipe. With the different bolt flanges with trd/stock I suggested keep the flange from the stock system and weld the trd rear after that.
Could weld it without a flange but would be harder done the road to change the muffler when it goes

Trd black tip and the snow belt, what did I do wrong?
Lived in snow belt whole life, never had an issue with any finish except chrome in the 70s until now. Brand new 2 months ago this got a good coat of wax. Washed once a week except the last 2 weeks of Chicago snow/ salt and these spots are in the finish, tried claybar, da compound polish....anyone else have this? I'll probably wait till spring and just get it coated.

I'm planning to pull my 2020 TRD exhaust out. I plan to keep the pro tailpipe. Million dollar question is what to tell an exhaust shop about welding it to the 'normal' exhaust system. How do I mate the 2 versus 3 bolt flanges? I don't want to buy the tailpipe and cut it after the flange to mate with the TRD Pro tailpipe. Thoughts? Anybody blended these?
Just have the exhaust shop cut the TRD flange off the tailpipe section and weld on a 2-bolt flange to match the standard OEM position.

Too easy, thanks!
In theory, yes. Make sure you trust the shop as with any maintenance/mod work. It wouldn’t be too difficult to weld the new flange slightly out of position.

I thought the same when I installed mine but then put it next to a 2020 and confirmed it was in the OEM position. I wish I could tighten it up a little bit to the rear quarter panel.
