Is Wet Okole making seat covers for the 07's? I could'nt find the application on their website. I had Wet Okoles on my 06 Tacoma dbl cab long bed. they were awesome.

How is the performance? I was actually going to but this next weekend for my 5.7 DC and I just finished reading a post about HP loss if you dont have X-pipes before the muffler. Have you found this to be true? Furthermore, how does it sound; gnarly or what?!?!
I like the side exit, looks clean! Rear exit exhaust can be a pain if you get rear-ended, or if you want to tow a boat. (My friend was complaining his exhaust fumes hurt his boat.)
KINDA PRICEY DONT YA THINK? the website says over $1100.00.. the TRD which has borla parts, is under $800 isnt it? and a one-off from a couple of local shops around here quoted me in the area of $800 w/ SS parts and choice of muffler...

Exactly,one-offs can be nice but for an extra $270 I would not hesitate to get the real thing with a real nice factory(Borla)warr..And as far as that $1100.00 you can do much better then that,at least I did.But if you think paying over $1000 for REAL NICE PERFORMANCE UPGRADES then it could be, but for me I have no problems paying for performance and like I said in other post "find it cheaper and they will pay you the difference(price protection 1year)+free shipping.I think that is standard on just about any shop on online these days.The TRD just doesn't have Borla parts it was designed and built buy Borla and is different from what Borla offers with their label.

One difference I have seen with Borla over the others is a higher grade of stainless steel. I installed a Magnaflow on my f-350 and in less than six months it had some rust forming.
Can't wait to hear the sound post. I plan on going this direction in a few months.

The TRD Exhaust System is NOT designed nor built by Borla. TRD uses a different vendor. Borla used to make the exhaust systems for TRD but changed vendors in recent years. Last time Borla made the exhaust system for TRD was early 2000 or even pre-2000.

stainless does not rust. If you had rust you did not have stainless. Stainless steel can corrode but rust is not possible.
