Custom Exhaust: Vibrant Performance mufflers w/ Magnaflow Y pipe (11 Camry SE 2.5)
I upgraded the exhaust on my 2011 Camry SE 2.5 with the goal in mind of keeping it fairly docile, but with a mellow deep tone. I achieved this by running running a pair of Vibrant streetpower 2.5" black mufflers and a Streetpower round 2.5" muffler up front in place of the original resonator. I think it sounds great considering the factory exhaust is a single inlet dual exit setup, so I went with the a stealthy look. There isn't any drone, and the tone is extremely deep/mellow in cab. Honestly, its just loud enough imo. Also, the factory exhaust manifold/catalyst is still in place.
The original exhaust was showing some age with corrosion/rust at flanges and especially the hangers. So it was time to replace/upgrade.
The secondary cat was removed as well. All components and piping used were 2.5".
Parts List:
2x Vibrant 1146 (5"H x 9"W, 15" body length, Tip OD 3" OVAL Case)
1x Vibrant 1118 (6" OD x 14" Body length Round case)
1x Vibrant 2609 U/J bends Stainless (bought to help with Y pipe install) Optional.
1 x Magnaflow 10733 (2.5" inlets and outlets, OAL 10")
I like the stealthy loook with the black Vibrant mufflers. The whole system produces a very deep and mellow tone with ZERO rasp. Its exactly what I was going for. I had planned on using an aftermarket header...but I didn't want to gamble with the raspiness, and the power gain with a header may not be worth the sound change. That may change down the road though. Overall I really like the setup!
