so i want to get a new exhasut on my 97 3.2tl. i dont want something that has that loud ricer sound like all the little civics running around. does anybody have a nice sounding exhaust or could point me in a good direction to get one?

your best bet is to get one custom made by someone in your area. my buddy got a custom exhaust for his crappy camry, paid 300 bucks with installation for a catback and it came out pretty nice it has a nice low rumble to it that doesn't sound crappy at all.

or you can just go with oem which is your best bet for quiet

ok thanks. what about just like putting a flowmaster or magnaflow muffler on it?

i am in the process of having muffler shop put on a catback custom exhaust with a remus universal muffler. Do not know results yet because im a broke college kid waiting on the money haha.

Dreamweaver, there was a thread started about the exhaust by HaynTL I believe, where we discussed this a bit. The way you asked is almost word for word on how he asked, too, IIRC.

i have a apexi worldsport 2 muffler and a custom axleback and it sounds very good. it has a nice smooth deep sound in the low rpms and once you get to the higher rpms it will go away. u only really need a axle back because the rest of the stock piping is 2.5 inches unless your goin to get a high flow cat then its goin to sound much louder. it gave a little power increase but i mostly got the exhaust for the sound

magnaflow and flowmaster are american brands my friend, sure they make some stuff for imports but i wouldn't use it.

i haven't done much research on exhausts for my TL but on my 300zx i've found greddy, borla, hks are some good brands personally i have a greddy catback with some other fairlady specific brand 2.5" piping up to the headers.

i'd go custom or oem since i think a loud exhaust on our cars is cheesy since they aren't fast and will never be fast cars.
