David I ran into the same exact problem being over here. I ended up with a Borla$$$. Some other companies that do full Catbacks are Performance Products has their own and Jardine. They may not all do parts for a 1st Gen though. Sucks being here when it comes to getting parts!

send us out to babysit the world...

and say screw us on perfomance parts.... Thanks UK! Does anyone have the pacesetter tfx or whatever it is called? i would be happy with the parts to replace the stock parts and just piece it together but the stock crimp bends suck. it would be kinda stupid to replace the muffler and still have the tiny crimp bend pipes, that would defeat the pourpose. Any more sugestions. ( i have had the same problems with my celica.)

Hey there David.
I'm runnin' a Flo-Pro on my '88.


It sounds real close to the Magnaflow that Corey is running.
I think i paid about $210 for everything.

You'll notice quite a bit of pep once you get one.
I had my dad's '92 Toyota pickup last week and i could tell the difference.
I think he is going in this week to have a cat-back installed

Todd what he's saying is over here in Europe we can't just take a muffler on down to Meinike and get a new exhaust fabbed up.. Just doesn't happen You know of any other companies that sell full bolt on catbacks?

got any pictures? how is yours, any power increase? mandral bends?
i thought about just ordering the bends from jcwhitney and piecing it but it would probly tun out like crap with 20 pieces and 40 clamps. that is why i was asking about the pacesetter because jcwhitney carries them and thay ship to APO's but they don't specify 4runner, Would the normal wheelbase pickup exhaust work for the 1st gen 4runner?
Thanks all!
David

It was kinda neat to watch the guy install my Flo-Pro.

After he cut off the old exhaust he took a straight 2" tubing and walked under my rig and marked where it needed to bend then he used a cheap tube bender and bent it. Walked back under and marked it again then bent it some more.
He did this several times untill it fit in the same location as my stock exhaust.
I think if you knew how to weld it would be kinda simple to do.

You'll definitly notice the new exhaust. It gives your rig alot more pep.

Hope things work out. Let me know if you need any help.
