My biggest question is whether the bolt-on exhaust "upgrade" you can buy from the dealership is going to do anything other than look/sound different. The description I've read in articles (since Toyota can't be bothered to pretend this car is a real thing and publish their own information on their own website) suggest it's a purely cosmetic upgrade.
I don't mind a different/better look/sound, but if it doesn't DO anything I may as well save my money and just buy a big NOS sticker or something like that. At least those add HP, right?

The TRD was nothing more than a cosmetic upgrade so nothing will change there. There are no gains to be had from any catback exhaust including the TRD.
That said the sound on my TRD exhaust equipped FRS was far superior to my stock 86 and is worthwhile so I will pick up another TRD system someday.
