Thinking of installing an exhaust system

[MandaShea]

I just got my 4runner 7 days ago and already thinking about installing a cold air intake and exhaust. I was wondering if anyone was so advice on what to choice.

I had a K&N intake on my V8 4runner. It made alot of noise, and maybe some power, but honestly the noise became irritating when cruising,

I have a Gibson catback exhaust that I absolutely love. The pricing is very fair, install is simple, and the result is awesome. I doubt it made 10HP but the look and sound are great. Not loud, not quiet. 3 years with no rust to speak of with an aluminized system here in CA.

Sounds like a good exhaust system, I have also thought about the same mods. For intake top of my list is the Trueflow XDi and for exhaust I was going to go with the TRD/borla catback but I will consider that one now too.

I've looked into the cherrybomb mufflers. Happy to hear one on a 4runner though. My neighbor has one on a Chevy and it sounds good.

Ok, so I've made my mind up onthe true flow, now just need to decide on the catback. I'm having problems finding something that will fit a V6. All I've found so far is the Magna Flow...any advice on this?

ebay has one for 500 or less, i think some members here have one, i couldnt afford a cat back, so i made my own, cherry bomb has one for the 4runner, but its the same things im using, cherrybomb has a 3inch center offset muffler, and use all 3 inch pipes, its different from my setting since they come with a tip, im not using a tip, but everything else is the same 3inch pipe from the flange of stock location , then to muffler and then to the exit.
