My mufler is gone and need replacement. I looked for cat-backs, but can't find any for my truck, therefore I found that some manufactures have cat-backs for '96-'99, but not '00-'02. All those years are 3rd Gen. 4Runners, but somehow aftermarket differ them.
Is there any changes in 2000 model I'm not aware of? Would '99 exhaust work on '01 Limited?

Borla for '99: Link

 

I believe it's the transisition from single cat to dual cat.

 

yes two cats instead of one

 

If the system is Cat-back, why it doesn't apply to post mod 3rd Gens? Is there a difference in location of the cats and mounting flange?

You saying that '99 would nt work on '01, am I right.

As an alternative, does anyone knows a good mufler to replace the original? I'm not in the noise, but would like to have a nice sound as well. I know Magnaflow has loud muflers. I have Gibson cat-back on my '05 and love it...

 

If you are willing to spend as much as a Borla's price, the TRD system works well, and don't have to worry about fitting issues. Pricey, but my only option (other than a standard OEM replacement), when it came to replacing my exhaust system.

 

Stillen exhaust was specific for the dual cats. A handful of us scored on those early this summer.

A nice Magnaflow muffler and a nice tip-you may not be able to use all the piping-they may have a few left yet.

Search 'Stillen' -I think the thread is in Marketplace.

 

14" magnaflow. i love mine but i kinda want a meaner sound if that makes any sense..flowmaster??
