There is a big difference between 304 and 409.

Attachment 213 304 stainless steal

Attachment 214 409 stainless steal

If you want to try something interesting, take a magnet at see if it will stick to a system that is made out of 409, (magnaflow, flow master, JBA,) it will. There is so much steal and impurities that it will stick.
Then try it with a system made out of 304, the only one to date that is 304 is (ZOOMERS) it will not stick.
409 has a high impurity, steal count it WILL RUST very fast. 304 will not, it is more expensive yes. Does it look better, yes. Will it last a lot longer yes.

There is no comparison between 304 and 409. And a two into one muffler back to two pipes is not a true dual exhaust, you have two tail pipes but one muffler.

In a single system a Y pipe is used to help eliminate DRONE, and create a scavenging effect to balance out both exhaust manifolds and increase HP and torque. This is basic exhaust engineering, do not let somebody tell you something else. If they are not using one it is because of the cost factor.
for someone so "informed" you dont even know how to spell "steel"...and there is no such hoo-hah as a "high impurity STEEL count". I've never tried, but if you can have a magnet stick it is because of a higher content of more ferrous metals. Steel is made of a composition of other metals, different compositions of those base metals gives different properties. You make it seem like any other exhaust is going to instantly rust and fall apart. This is untrue. A stainless exhaust MAY experience corrosion or scaling but isnt necessarily detrimental to the integrity of the part, you can polish it back out. IF you even need to do that. It also appears that magnaflow uses 430 series SS. Your absolute lack of knowledge and the fact that you're posting false information definitely turns me away from any product you or your company makes.

I just want to say that I'm sorry about the false information in this former employees post. Zoomers Tundra is no longer with our company and his lack of knowledge and interpreting what training he had is why he was let go...

I sure hope so... Hope he wasn't mis-representing your company on any other sites.... Unfortunately due to past experience with not-so-honest vendors on forums, for my personal vehicle... I'll still have to look elsewhere as I'm not convinced. This is again...just my personal choice.

I don't think he was intentionally being dishonest, unfortunately for him our customers are more educated than he thought. Fortunately for us this was his only venture on the forums and as you can see I've been the rep for Zoomers exhaust for several months now and have created a favorable following. The facts are is that Zoomers does use 304 stainless steel inside and out right down to the clamps, hangers and welding rod. How it compares to 409 or other grades of steel... I think you already know the answer to that. Zoomers on sale right now 20% off, see here for details: Zoomers Group Buy 20% off

Just purchased the JBA single side-exit for my Tundra. Kit should be here next week, I'll post some pics and a little report when I get it all done.

Has anyone on here used Corsa exhaust before, I like the sound of it and it looks like it is a well built product. Any info would be great.

I'd like to see an interior shot of the zoomers muffler. Is it completly straight through or baffled. I'm going to get exhaust in a couple of months and I'm getting down to the final choices. I am a power junkie and I'd spend more just to get that final last 5hp. Whether you feel it or not is irrelevant I'm more into seeing the difference.

AHHHHHHHHHHH The Beauty of Simplicity,
Zoomers Hands down , The Best Catback system to date for the Tundra.
Does cost more Yes"
Cracks me up to here people comment of 200.00 bucks difference in expense for a superior system, just after you purchase a 30-K Plus truck. bottom line oppions will vary . And the zoomers is the best quality and looking system out there.

So youve tested all of the systems out there yourself?

Our muffler is a straight through expansion chamber there are no baffles only a stationary set of vanes in the inlet which forces the gases out towards the lager diameter perforation. As the turbulent exhaust enters the chamber's larger diameter, it's contoured and spun by a special set of vanes. The result is a drop in pressure, which aids in scavenging the system. Flow velocity is kept high and unwanted backpressure is reduced.
