Beware of exhaust modifications on twin cams...I've spent 25 years in the exhaust game...
Rule of thumb unbolt and save your original exhaust parts...
Why??...The modern day car is thinly built and all these flashy shiny "boy racer" bits that look cool generate noise, lots of it and it comes straight into the interior...Plus they sound like ****...
So when you can't handle the noise anymore bolt the original parts back on and increase you resale value...
2nd rule of thumb is If you want your 4 cylinder to sound like a cool V8 add another 4 cylinders...
The exhaust on my Aurion is very quiet barely louder than the stock, lucky to be noticed. On hearing it you would think it was stock. That is why I went for the large anti drone Berklee sports mufflers as I want the car to be quiet but a little bit more power and better fuel economy.
I agree with your analogy, nothing worse than a raspy loud 4 cylinder or 6 cylinder engine.

I have had the Super Pro Front Control Arm, Lower Inner Rear Bush Kit with Double Offset sitting here for a while. I notice you are in QLD where did you get them installed?

Men at Work Exhaust Capalaba- Mick. Fantastic exhaust specialist. It takes about 3 weeks to book in though as he is flat out and doesn't advertise - just word of mouth.

I like the sound of this and am going to the exhaust shop this week to speak to them. I think the Aurion would benefit from more torque low down as I drive mainly city driving. I already have 18'x 8's running 245/40/18 so I don't think traction will be a problem. Has anyone changed the cats as well?

matt36415 Can you post a photo of the magnefine inline filter on the Car? I have used them in the past on a Magna & a 380 & am impressed. Do you need the 3/8 or 5/16th?

Hi,
New to the site it looks like a knowledgeable forum, I bought my first Toyota last year (after driving for 30 years). It is a Toyota Aurion 2014 SV50.

Interested in this thread, I have the same car & model as the OP. My other car is a Mitsubishi 380 SX (sports model) with standard strut brace & stiffer springs. I drove a standard 380 model without the brace & stiffer springs and the difference was very noticeable

Did you notice a difference in power / fuel economy etc? I was thinking about high flow cats

Everyone seems to be going for the double offset kit, just make sure it is for a 50 series. The 40 series is different so I found out the hard way and now have a spare one.
