Tanabe exhaust??? - Page 2 - Toyota Yaris Forums

Don't get me wrong but im a big Tanabe fan, but the exhaust is not my cup of tea just by how it looks mounted, ppl who will see the exhaust on the yaris are gonna think that who ever installed you muffer did it wrong.

That's right. The reason is mounted vertically is to be able to hang it higher.

This car has very little space back there to mount a muffler.

Other aftermarket mufflers hang way lower.

I never had any trouble with it.

I actually copied the Tanabe style on my custom axle back. I have more clearance than stock.

The way the muffler canister is so close to the wheel, you will never be able to compress the rear suspension enough for the muffler to scrape the road. You'd break something in your suspension first.

The only way you might hit it is if you backed up into something.

Would it? I don't know, it might be my lack of sleep, but I can't see how it would hang lower horizontally.

Well if noones having problems with it I might still stick to getting one. As far is looks is concerned, I like it.

Cleong is correct. The way the factory designed the canister and mounted it is correct. No issues noted.
