You have got to be kidding me. Search this. I think this qualifies under blatant.
There are systems all over here on YT for n/a and supercharged 4runners from dual to single, from ricey to not and everything in between.
Also try youtube and google as there are sound clips on there and even soundclips on the exhaust roundup here.
Maybe move this to newbie section?

+1 for TRD catback. Replaced my Dynomax with custom piping that rusted out in a year and a half.

hey thanks for all the replies. magnaflow has always been well liked but sort of expensive? if you guys dont mind me asking, about how much did your magnaflow cost?

thanks!

x2 on the 18" Magnaflow. Not too loud, but nice sound, and it doesn't have the dreaded "drone" in the cabin.
