So I'm starting to think about a custom exhaust system. Problem is, I HATE 99% of the mufflers out there and I LOVE the look of the stock GT muffler. Mine is in mint condition as well but my flex pipe is about ready to need replacing. I figured while I was at it, I would replace the entire thing with a high flow exhaust manifold and 2" stainless piping. I'm curious if I were to keep the stock muffler, if it was going to be counter productive to the decrease in back-pressure even though it's at the end-of-the-line.
This isn't really a post to try to find an alternate muffler so much as it is to become more informed of what would happen if the stock muffler was kept. -------------------- 99 Celica GT-S
