TRD dual exhaust

Just the look I had in mind for the truck. When I dumped the exhaust at the carven muffler it was too loud so I decided to chop it down to just pipes and black it out for a smaller blueprint. I like the no exhaust look. Next option was the overland system from a couple companies but this was more economical

 

I just had the TRD duel exhaust installed on my 2022 Tundra this week, so thought I'd throw in my two cents.

I actually really like the exhaust note. I'm a middle-aged dude and am not after something super loud and aggressive. Most of the previous posts are accurate; not a huge difference overall. You can mainly hear a deeper, more throaty note on startup, which dies down after a short period(I actually noticed people looking my way when I started my truck this week, which never happened previously). I find I can hear a difference when I accelerate through lower gears, but once up to cruising, it disappears. I have found myself turning off my music this week and listening to the exhaust as I bomb around; based on the previous posts, there is actually a larger difference than what I was expecting. It's just a bit richer; I like it.

I also have the TRD air filters installed, which definitely increase the amount of turbo whistle I hear, but I assume they would have minimal impact on the exhaust note.

Overall, the exhaust doesn't change the the stock experience drastically, but is a noticeable difference, and makes for a slightly more refined and rich tone. This is what the stock exhaust should have sounded like originally, in my opinion. If you have the money to spend and just want a slightly deeper exhaust note, it's a good option.

 

I agree. I did the same and sounds and looks great! Obviously not a V8 pur but, sounds good with my HV. Definitely hear the turbo whistle with the TRD filters!

 

Revisiting this thread after trying to order since February. Anyone successfully get the black dual exhaust or is it still backordered? If so, from where?

Thanks!

 

Where are you at? I have one that I could be convenienced to sell. Dm me. I am in Colorado

 

Lakeland Toyota in Florida has 1 black tip. Shipping will not be cheap though.

 

Has anyone found the TRD chrome (not black) exhaust from a dealer recently for the ~$250 mark? Seems like a number of folks were able to find it local for about that and then get hit with ~$200 shipping. My local dealer wants $400 (with no shipping). Trying to figure out if that's the new rate or it's just my local dealer. In North Atlanta if someone has another suggestion. TIA.

 

Thanks for that. Order placed.

 

I'm still waiting on the black chrome version to become available again...

 

I’ve had mine ordered since July…

 

Honestly the TRD dual exhaust is 99% looks and 1% something else. No discernible difference in exhaust note and certainly no additional power. All show and no additional go. If you want bling save your $ and buy the OEM exhaust tip. Been there done that.

 

I’ve noticed an improvement in the sound of the exhaust. Nothing crazy, but happy I upgraded. Looks great too!

 

I liked mine too but honestly for me it was not worth the $200 more than the shinny oem tip. So I sold mine ( trd dual and oem tip from
oem tail section) for what I bought it for and then shit canned the sysyem for a TWC - best of both worlds IMO.

 

Trying to order the black dual tip again after canceling due to non-availability some months ago. I guess I should have let that order ride since the price has gone up. Does anyone know if these have come available again or not? The online system doesn't say. In any case my order is in and if they are not available I guess I'll just cancel it again and be done with it.

 

Clears the C4 rear bumper

 

As of today, BAM Wholesale is now at $288.79 for chrome version. Quite the price change since the start of this thread. $20.86 for shipping to Maine.

 

Install complete. Before and after..

 

I finally got my dual tip black chrome tailpipe. Damn, took forever. How hard did you guys find this swap, getting it over and around the axle and such? In my experience one of the biggest PITAs is getting the old pipe off the rubber donut mounts and the new one back on. I'll use a little silicone spray or sil-glyde.

 

Can you try and explain how you got the old axel back off the truck? I dropped the spare tire and spent 20 mins trying to get it out, but I kept on hitting something that wouldn't allow me to get it all the way off.
Did it help to put it up on ramps? I didn't jack the truck up or anything.

 

From his photo above you can see it was on ramps, so he probably didn't try it without them. Hopefully that's all we need to do to make this work.

 

just posting again for those having problems.

 

Jacking the body/bed up by the hitch... that sounds like the pro tip for the win.

 

drop the spare - it helped me a lot

 

Talked to my dealer yesterday about the black chrome. They said it won't be until 4/1 when Toyota starts allocating. He couldn't say if this was making the parts or actually sending them out.

He could get me the chrome in 10-15 days though.

Both free shipped to store

 

IDK that the dealers are getting totally accurate info. I Ordered my black chrome back pipe in early January, then about 3 weeks ago I stopped in at the dealer to get another part and asked about the tailpipe, and he said it looked like mid-March. But only a week later I got the e-mail to pick up my pipe. It's in my basement waiting for a good opportunity to install. Be prepared to be shocked at the size of the box these come in!

 

So you received it a week after inital order?

 

No, I ordered in early Jan. So, about 5 weeks or so.

 

I gotcha. I'm leaning towards the chrome right now..

 

I do like the black chrome also, just thought maybe do something different. I need to find some sound of someone doing just the resonator delete. See if that's clean like the trd exhaust? Should be, but I'm skeptical

 

This looks sick too. Did you try painting the tips black? I've thought about trying this
