I recently bought a Toyota GR86 and love everything about it except for the exhaust sound. It's too quiet and not as sporty as I'd like. Is there any way I can customize the exhaust to make it sound louder and more aggressive? Can it be done without affecting the car's performance? Any recommendations on specific exhaust systems or modifications?
ReplyHi Emily, congratulations on your new GR86! Yes, you can definitely customize the exhaust sound without affecting performance. You have a few options - you can either replace the entire exhaust system with an aftermarket one or install a performance muffler. Make sure to research and choose a reputable brand for quality and sound. Some popular choices for the GR86 are Borla, HKS, and Invidia. It's always recommended to consult with a mechanic or a car tuning specialist to get personalized advice for your specific car and preferences.
Hey Emily, I had the same issue with my GR86. I ended up going with a cat-back exhaust system from Borla and it made a huge difference in sound and performance. It's a bit pricier than just a muffler, but it's worth it in my opinion. If you're looking for a more budget-friendly option, you can also consider a simple muffler delete. Just make sure to do your research and choose a reputable shop to do the work for you.
Hi Emily, I have a friend who also has a GR86 and he installed a resonator delete pipe instead of a full exhaust system. It's a cheaper option and still gives a noticeable improvement in sound. However, be warned that it can make your car significantly louder and may not be legal in some states. Make sure to check your local laws before making any modifications to your car.
