Hey Guys, what would be the best exhaust for my Celica?

I'm not all about gains or all about sound, just want an "all-around" exhaust system that doesn't sound like a ricer.

I have these in mind: TRD, Apexi, Blitz Nur spec, Invidia, Magnaflow, HKS, EVO3.

I also wanted to get MeganRacing Headers.

Tell me what you guys think. All help is appreciated.

Idk about the headers but i have a greddy evo with a resonator delete and its perfect: deep sound, no drone, with one exception... my ecu likes a lean engine. A lean 1zz engine sounds like a honda..

Ive heard the apexi and invidia systems are loud, but typically sound good. TRD is on the quieter side but i've also heard that sounds good.

Titanium C-one Axle back, looks like a loud exhaust but its quiet like the TRD axle back.

I loved my TRD exhaust, also for the GT find a HotShot header.

one thing you could do to get an idea of how loud of an exhaust you want, is unbolt your muffler (takes 10 minutes), and if you like that volume, you could just cut out the muffler from your axle back exhaust, wouldn't be expensive, and won't have a massive fart can either.

Hi Guys,

I'm also looking for an exhaust however I have been told that if I want a deep rumble exhaust then whatever I fit will mean my engine light will remain on. I've called a few companies in the UK but none can guarantee an exhaust which won't trigger the engine light. My friend has an mr2 and it sounds amazing. If you can recommend one that would be great. For long motorway trips if I could somehow silence it that would be cool as we'll :)

Whoever told you that does not know what he/she is talking about. As long as you don't modify anything between the engine and the rear oxygen sensor you'll be fine.

I don't think getting an exhaust will trigger a CEL. I did mine last year and didn't get any CEL, I got a new pipe from the cat back to the axle back and then got a new axle back exhaust.
