Exclamation Off topic but need some help from my fellow a ziners

ok so my dad and i bought a 2010 tundra rock warrior and decided the only thing Toyota is missing is an exhaust that gives justice to the amount of power the truck has. so tommorrow i am going to get one put on on the truck and decided to go with a single 2 chamber flow-master with dual straight back exhaust pipes i got a quote ranging from 325 to 470 is this reasonable?? i know quality is a big factor but both are reputable sources is this pretty good deal?? and will a 2 chamber wont be too loud right?? also trying to avoid drone

Don't those have the 5.7? I've owned nothing but V8's until my TL and they've been the SBC 5.3 & 5.7 liter engines. I've always ran no cats and 2 chamber flows with 3 inch pipe. Now on your dad's Tundra, the 2 chamber flow will sound ridiculously good IMO. About $350 including tips sounds reasonable, atleast I've never paid over $350.

Do they have the metal shavings in the oil issue resolved in the 2010 Tundra's? A lot of new Tundra owner's are getting a check engine light within the first two hundred miles and the fix is an engine teardown (under warranty of course), but there's a waiting line for the fix and the truck willl be down for a long time if it happens. If the issue hasn't been resolved, I'd consider waiting.....

I never really considered flowmasters for import trucks but when I first started working with exhaust a few years ago I put several 40 series on Tundras and Tacomas and they sounded great.
