Did you really buy all that stuff?

EDIT: Actually let me tell you what's wrong with that product you just ordered.

"This Fireball style slant titanium burnt tip muffler will increase about 8% horsepower and will produce a deep tone racing sound. Installation requires cutting and weld on, we highly recommended professional installation."


I doubt it'll make that much horsepower (if any), and if it requires cutting and welding you might as well save your money for some of the more proven and popular exhausts offered for the Solara.

Oh and don't order that wing.

I'd say skip that last one and return your exhaust tip. Then use that money towards a Greddy, TRD, or Apex'i exhaust or some other proven mod (suspension, intake, etc). The gauges are really up to you, but I wouldn't have spent that much money on them. They just don't seem like they're worth my 32 bucks and shipping.

That's just me.

It looks rice, and will probably sound rice. Just save it for a "real" exhaust

Didn't mean it offensively, just tired of the ricers in my area, just trying to make as much noise as possible, with no go, there's only a couple cars ive lost to when they rev at me and stuff, and they always seem to have that type of exhaust. There's some warehouses about 10 mins from my house that legitimate Fast And Furious style stuff goes down, there's about 300-500 (the 15 mile radius is crawling with these cars starting at around 11 pm) cars there every Friday and Saturday night. cops only get involved if it gets out of control, otherwise they just sit back and watch the show.

the only thing i like is the gauges.

The muffler is going to cost you a lot getting it welded as others said and the spoiler might look good on that z but i think it will look like crap on the solara

Those muffler are wannabess... you gonna sound like every honda out there and be looked down upon.

I woulda bought a used Apexi N1 muffler weld it on a custom 2.5 catback pipeing. The muffler you just bought does not sound good. Its pretty much like farting.
