The intake induction pipe does make it a little loud in the cabin now you have an exhaust which also contributes to some noise so that could also be why you may feel its really loud. Also, exhausts are known to be loud when they are new after a few heat cycles it could tone down possibly. You should wait and drive 100 miles or so to see if it makes any difference. Just throwing out some ideas...

Hmmm, maybe I'll just collect my old stock exhaust from the dealer and keep it at my place and then drive around in this TRD exhaust a bit longer to see if it quiets down or not.
But I have been told that exhausts don't quiet down with time and that this is an urban myth. In any case, I guess by this point I've already lost a lot of money on the exhaust because if I'm selling it, it'll be sold used now. So I might as well keep it for a little bit longer and see if it will indeed quiet down?
