which cat back system

jtmaxx7 · 07-12-2004, 05:30 PM

Just registerd but been getting useful info from this site for a while. Anyway, I have 2001v6 prerunner and was wondering which cat back system you guys suggest, borla or gibson and what is a fair price? Also if there other brands I should consider. Thanks in advance.

I've got a MagnaFlow muffler on my 3.4 4Runner and I'm happy with it.

My friend who works at a muffler shop said he could make me a cat back using a Magnaflow muffler for under $250,I think I'll take this deal soon.

Ditto on what Cebby said. It was a bit more but really like the results.

So no one had any experince or herd about gibson. I live in hawaii and am having a hard time finding someone to sell me a borla cat back system. Yeah, I don't want loud I just want a little lower tone and performance.

gibson does good stuff... i nkow from working in the car industry that their diesel stuff is awesome... and i have heard good things about their gas applications as well

My Downey full exhaust arrives today. I'll bolt it on this weekend and let everyone know if it was worth the $400.

Ive been calling around and it seems that shipping to HI will be about 150. So Im probably going to buy the side sweep gibson form the 4wheel parts near me for about 420 but I have to wait 4 to 6 weeks. Good, that gives me time to save unless they ask me to pay first. Again thanks for all the help.
