exhaust on 07 V8

[mercury3545]

Hey guys im new here and I just recently picked up a 2007 Galactic Gray SR5 V8 the other day. I have had it for about a week and the mod bug is already hitting me. I want to put an exhaust system on it but im not crazy about all the single exhaust tip, or even dual exhaust tip systems. I think it looks alot cleaner when you cant see the exhaust at all. I was thinking about getting a good muffler and putting a turn down right after the muffler. I was wondering if anyone had turn downs on the newer 4runners.

My biggest inputs are...........1) search for reviews on exhausts, just to get a feel for how everyone views the extra noise, 2) ONLY DO AN ALL STAINLESS, MANDREL BENT SYSTEM IF YOU BUILD YOUR OWN! Why, the factory system is stainless and will last a LONG TIME. Not using Stainless is a big down grade and will cause you issues unless you like in a very dry climate (CA, AZ etc). Not having mandrel bends will mean not seeing a gain in performance.

yea I was going to go to an exhaust shop and have them fab up a custom X pipe and then put two mufflers to turn downs right after that. I just dont want to loose to much back pressure. And then Im worried about the sound since no one has done this.
