Hi.
I am considering upgrading the prado 2005 1kz, first with a exhaust then a egt gauge and chip later, I am looking at the Beaudesert exhausts which are 2 3/4 inch or the Taipan which is 3 inch. The beaudesert is $935.00 for steel plus delivery and the taipan is $1330.00 plus delivery.
Has anyone compared these 2 exhausts for noise levels as i dont want anything droning. the original is pretty quiet and i realise that there will be a different note i prefer the quieter of the two. The taipan is more $$ but is 3 inch and has a extra resonator that may reduce the noise??
Any hands on experience out there?
also are people generally installing a catalitic converter or not when upgrading the exhaust?/
Thanks
jeff
