Anyone yet have the new TRD exhaust?

Looking to see if anyone has gotten the new TRD exhaust for our Tacoma's (2005) or heard any feedback from anyone who has? I'm waiting to get other's responses before deciding to take that leap. I've read most of all the posts about other aftermarkets, and custom setups so please don't comment on those. I'm just interested in the new TRD offering. Sound, overall look, etc.
Thanks

why would you pay so much for non dual setup?

This is one mod I plan on getting once I get SOME money again because it would increase the throttle response maybe, same goes with the headers, but I had to pay for my fricken wisdom teeth. I am curious also if there sia dyno chart laying around out there for any aftermartket exhaust for our trucks.

For one; at $379 for a catback stainless steel exhaust with welded tip doesn't sound like a bad price at all. (trdparts4u.com)

Second a "true" dual catback exhaust would probably be less then beneficial for a truck with a 6cyl engine, not to mention the sound note being distorted to the tune of pooh. IMO a dual exhaust with a split pipe on a 6cyl just to make it look like true dual just looks stupid to me. Kind of like buying a 6cyl mustang and putting 5.0 emblems on the side.

I believe a stock diameter exhaust with welded tip for show and an upgraded muffler is probably a more perfect match for our trucks in stock form anyhow.

Now just need to hear some feedback from someone who has one to know for sure
