(More customer reviews)This is a great product, have seen an increase in mileage and alerts my neighbors to my arrival home at night :-). I bought this exhaust system for my 4Runner, at idle it sounds like a normal 4Runner, but once it TACs over 2000 RPMs it growls like a 68 Camaro, very nice sound and vibration. Note, if taking grandma and grandpa out for a ride, just be easy on the gas pedal and they will not notice it too much. However, my complaint on this product is that it does not meet factory specs on installation.
The pipe that mates to the catalytic is too large, it measures a male 2.5 inches, where the female part of catalytic flange is 2-1/4 inch, I was able to overcome this with a quick trip to the autoparts store and 7 bucks later I had a solution, but for the price of this kit, we should not need to do this :-(!!
Also the same pipe going from the catlytic to the muffler is straight, the original pipe and oem specs. require this pipe to have a slight convexed bend in it, this kit does not take this into consideration, once again I needed to do some modification :-((.
Overall, I rated this product 3 stars, I came to this conclusion as 5 stars for the product as its entirety and what it does and 1 star for the installation, it turned a 2 hour job into a 6 hour job with trips to the auto parts store and figuring things out. If you get an exact fit kit for your vehicle consider yourself lucky.
