I would have to say the Borla. Second would be the Bassani. The Bassani like my TRD and Gibson gave me a little too much drone in the cabs. I base my decision 50% sound and 50% performance. You can easily spend $1100.00 on the Bassani but Borla is pretty much identical and less money and the sound at idle is only slightly louder than stock. Once you tap the pedal its a whole different world.
Borla makes the TRD exhaust for Toyota
My Dodge 5.7 Hemi runs true Borla duals with 3 1/2 pipes off of Mopar headers so yes its extremely loud but thats what I wanted on the Dodge. The Borla on my Tundra is turning alot of heads, mostly due to the fact that I brought both pipes out of the passenger rear side at a 45 degree angle.
So without rambling on too much, my advice would be if the truck you want has the TRD duals then by all means buy it. If it does not have the factory duals then get a Borla and save yourself a few bucks.
My friend bought a single cab last week and he had the series 50 Magnaflow three chambers put on his and I have to admit it sounds very nice. It also has a two in two out configuration versus one in two out but he is getting alot of cabin drone. He likes it since his stereo is usually full blast anyway. Good luck on your decision.
Borla, Bassani, Gibson and the rest are all quickly jumping on the aftermarket band wagon so in a few weeks you'll have your pick of the litter unless you decide to go custom and do it now.
