Un-Restrictive and Quiet Muffler?

Un-Restrictive and Quiet Muffler?
Is there a muffler for my 02 4Runner that is quiet with maybe a little rumble on acceleration but no drone at speed with performance enhancing characteristics. I just want the performance you would get from a flowmaster or something like that without the noise.

Though i have no facts which speak to the restrictiveness, the 18" Magnaflow I had was fairly mellow and deep.. not very intense but a nice tone..the 14" i have now is much more aggressive

Someone posted this a while back and I thought they were all to loud. But it is a good way to get an idea what they sound like.

I had a Flowmaster 50 on my 3.4 and it wasnt loud at all. They are a 3 chamber design. I now have a Magnaflow and its a little louder. I had the Flo on a 2.5" crush bent custom catback system and changed it out for a mandrel bent 2.5" system w/ Magnaflow muffler.

Get a 24" magnaflow. I put one in my truck and I LOVE it. Not too loud, but with t a nice rumble. The smaller the muffler, the louder it will be. I don't understand the infatuation with flowmasters...

Well I love Magnaflow- I have one on my Ranger that I'm trying to sell, I just know its a little loud but I guess I'll try the longer Magnaflow, thanks for the input.

Here is a good website. You want the 24" center/offset.

Summary: Yes, I believe that that is your ticket. I am going to try that very soon. I hope the 2.5" piping will give it a nice throaty tone with a kick up in performace.
P.S.: I just noticed you said 2.5 catback. Personally I am going to do 2.5" all the way back.

I know the OP has a 4Runner, but heres a killer deal for anyone (95-99 Tacoma ext. cab v-6) that wants to do a 2.5" mandrel bent stainless catback system including a Magnaflow muff. I have it, its awesome. Its like 250 to your door.
