    Hi, I've always owned dodges (hemi & cummins) until now...purchased a tundra 5.7 very happy so far...and never looking back at that domestic junk ...only concern is the iForce is too quiet for me, if Im getting 12mpg I'd like to sound like it..you know what I mean?...any suggestions on what type exhaust to upgrade too?

    Welcome buddy!

    Yeah a slight lift is probably the ticket.
    Plenty of info on this site about them. Personally, I'd hit up some Bilsteins (top level) or some more heavy duty suspension setups depending on what you're going to use the truck for.

    I love dbz custom grilles. A bit pricey but look awesome! @joem1cha3l has a color matched one. Check out his build page.

    Welcome from NorCal. I think one of the loudest exhausts is the Flowmaster Outlaws. Go to Youtube for exhaust vids.
