PM sent. i'm now back to my stock muffler.
Whats the word with the stock muffler...much better or still some rspiness?

it's louder then stock but MUCH MUCH MUCH less raspy.. however, i can hear some a tiny bit of rasp if i'm going WOT in 1st or 2nd gear. but intake + megan header + stock exhuast = livable. i'm still on the search for an exhaust that works with the megan and NOT too loud.

that megan looks good but how hard is the install for the header? did u also replace the S pipe? how loud is the combo? good to hear no raspy. hopefully this can help my friend in choosing a header

I already have it and it is loud and deep. I wonder what it will sound like with the Megan header.

I think the simple fact of adding a header will yeild raspy results no matter what exhaust you have (except stock maybe). Since I'm going turbo, I not even going that route, so it's all good.

To my opinion Blitz muffler too harsh and have low pinch sound replace it with magnaflow 5'' or 6'' and your car will be much quieter and smoother.
Check the sound clip of deferent exhausts and compare.
https://www.scionlife.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=70002

I have Megan racing header last design.
I build cat back my self 2.25’’ tubing magnaflow catalytic converter 4’’-14’’ long resonator and 6’’ – 14’’ long muffler plus S”S tip.
The configuration the same as ZPI exhaust but much quieter.
I still have some little rasp between 2000-3000rpm.
I will post pix and sound clip later.
