So is blocking your egr isn't that interfering with your emissions
No diffrent to fitting a egr block so why not just ditch it lol . .. It'll still fail emission test, just a little more obvious lol
so im guessing you have a stocker so start this way buy all your goodies and do it in one hit egr blocking plate bigger zorst boost and egt gauge performance module provent catch can dawes and needle valve bigger intercooler then you will have a bullet proof weapon to blast any yota off the park. when your ready to start buying put a post up as to where you get these items, as all the items can be purchased here from vendors.kevQuote:

The middle muffler is very restrictive (and heavy) and is probably built like that to slow the flow of gas and let the cat do its thing (my theory anyway). It's a cheap way of improving the car and I did notice the car ran slightly cooler according to the scangauge (1-2 degree Celsius).
If you can afford a full exhaust maybe go for that.
i thought removing the cat would reduce egt..since it have no effect on egt..well..gonna put it back..or ill remove whats inside it and put it back on
It may. A little but definitely not worth it. I paid only $900 for a 3 inch Red back system with hi flow cat and muffler. I ended up removing the muffler...Quote:

More powarrrrrr! I tell it worked too. I was actually quite surprised. I was expecting nothing at all as my expectations were high when I got the chip, wrong, my expectations were high when I got the new zorst, wrong. So this time around I expected nothing but more of a tone to the sound, which I got plus more mid range power.Quote:

And not I think it has less power it was so notable I'd estimate around 8% drop.
and that was including going up from 2 1/4 to 2 1/2
better muffler was the smaller lukey at 2 1/4.
forget the size for your application,
the point some install to suit their profit margin and install any old muffler.
DO YOUR HOMEWORK.
hope that helps some what.
