Let's talk exhaust
I've been looking into the Flowmaster (after the cat) for my 03 4Runner and was told by the service manager at the dealership that it *could* possibly cause problems with the emisions, bla bla bla and void my warrenty.
Basically it's just a muffler replacement and a new peice of pipe after the cat so how could I screw anything up???? I'm completely happy with the performance (245 hp 6 cylinder) so it's not like I really need more speed.
Jeez, been at the forum a mere 2 days and allready looking to mod!

The service manager is wrong, and feeding you false information. Plain and simple.
Get that exhaust!
