    I thought about replacing the oem with a Magnaflow, but I tow regularly so not sure if it would be constantly loud.

    Not sure what Magnaflow model he put in but it sounded good and low. I've been hesitant due to towing..

    Check the build link in my signature.
    Beat me to it. Muffler delete would be option 2. And a set of solenoid dumps would probably be option 3 on the price scale.... but I’ve never priced those

    I put a Banks cat back on my old truck. Didn’t break the bank and sounded good. Not an obnoxious sound

    You would want two mufflers followed by a Y pipe, followed by your tail pipe.

    Sorry, that's a formula for added power, not just sound.

    I guess any 2 pipes in, and 1 pipe out 'performance' muffler will make the sound you want.

    Good luck.

    i have the big 5x11 inch magnaflow in my stock pipe. Has a very mellow deep sound. If you have the stock resonator bulb after the muffler, zero drone. I tow a small travel trailer as well, no drone on the highway under any speed

    I'm sure it will growl, but I'm also sure it will drone and reduce your low end torque.

    Yes absolutely. Before the tundra on all my previous trucks I would drive straight from the dealer to the muffler shop. I would get a aftermarket muffler and larger pipe running out after the muffler to the tip. Usually cost me around 300 bucks and I was always happy. I’d always ask for the best quality but low key upgrade. I never received as disappointed.

    I didn't go crazy with my exhaust, I saved up, waited for a sale, and then purchased a custom stainless steel muffler system from Keith at DirtyDeeds. The system included a resonator to kill drone, and it uses the factory tail pipe. Easy DIY installation, great sound, and a nice boost in power.

    $800 or so, and it's made specifically for the Tundra. Direct bolt-on with correct diameter pipes, I removed my old muffler and installed the new kit in my driveway. Great sounds, and I enjoy the boost in power.
