    Spec U Headers Installed...need more power

    Got rid of mine a while ago. Tried different mufflers, resonators, loosen this, tighten that, new gaskets blah blah... Threw a bunch of time and money at the thing and the best solution was simply to ditch it and build my own 3 exhaust. I don't miss the change in performance or the horrible...

    Spec U Headers Installed...need more power

    Spec U Headers Installed...need more power

    Put a couple more miles on it today. The rasp and hiss have definitely subsided substantially. The exhaust sound has gotten a bit louder, and more trumpet-like. It sounds better the harder you drive. Cruising drone is no more an issue than before. There is some resonance left but significantly...

    Spec U Headers Installed...need more power

    I tried the new muffler today and was much happier with the sound. It is the Magnaflow 14719. The new muffler hasn't eliminated the rasp completely. It just sounds way better so the rasp is less noticeable.

    Spec U Headers Installed...need more power

    Typical Gadget response. If one of my suggestions doesn't fix it, it's your fault. I've sold a hundred and you're the only one complaining..... etc... I had JBA long tubes, custom y-pipe and a Magnaflow cat back with a Vibrant resonator which was the single best Tacoma exhaust I had ever...

    Spec U Headers Installed...need more power

    The resonating is part of it. I'm getting a really loud and unpleasant metallic hissing sound. I have a different muffler on order which I'm hoping will help. I've gone back and tightened all the connections, including the header brackets and checked for leaks multiple times.

    Spec U Headers Installed...need more power

    Just installed my URD spec-U exhaust today and I am also getting a hideous rasp anytime I'm on the gas. Mine's not rubbing on anything, I'm using new URD gaskets etc... The Magnaflow exhaust I had before had no issues...

    URD Spec-U exhaust supercharged application

    If anybody has anything conclusive or relevant to add, I'd appreciate it. No offense but I'm not looking for theoretical advice from internet bench racers.

    URD Spec-U exhaust supercharged application

    I have a narrow band a/f gauge, 12.8 at WOT. TRD reflash done. Spoke to Gadget a couple times on the phone and he said the MAF CAL would be a good solution when dyno tuned by Autowave. They said that they do a lot of tuning for people that he sends them. Just to clarify, how did I lose low...

    URD Spec-U exhaust supercharged application

    Good to hear that the fitment issues only affect double cab trucks. Mine shouldn't be an issue then. I have the URD Maf cal for the time being but that can change anytime. I was told that it would be sufficient for my expectations. If I already have a free-flowing y-pipe and add a 3" cat...

    URD Spec-U exhaust supercharged application

    Current: - TRD supercharger (7psi max boost) - JBA long tubes - custom y-pipe with OEM cats - Magnaflow 2.5 cat-back Anybody go from a similar 2.5 exhaust setup to the URD 3-inch and get their money's worth in usable power? Going have the truck properly dyno-tuned pretty soon and I'm...

    Naturally Aspirated Horsepower & Supporting Mods

    If you pull out a couple stock fuel pumps and filters, you will see that it is worth it. Dyno tuning an ECU after headers is a waste of money, unless you don't plan on more mods. Wait until you install more parts. Just disconnecting and capping off the coolant lines to your throttle body. It's...
