Added the TRD High Response Muffler to my Levin SX this week and the first thing I noticed was the sound it's good but subdued. The response in terms of acceleration of the mark was good and it is especially good in the 5-6k range. There is a little bit of drone at under 2.5k, but it's not too bad and I am not down that low very often or for very long. The big surprise was the improved fuel economy approximately 10% saving when driven sedately given the distances that I do the muffler should pay for itself in under a year (but then again I didn't pay the current retail.

Visually it has a nice tip but apart from that the unit itself does not look that different to the standard muffler accept of course the kW adding TRD badge.

That's utter tosh, I hate to tell you. Swapping JUST a muffler WILL NOT result in fuel savings, full stop.

Is the muffler on the right hand side of the vehicle cause I notice some corolla hatch in Japan muffler tip on the left hand side.

Mate you're referring to the e12 rollas (runx). This muffler is for the zre corolla, the newer one.
