Default $250 Exhaust Pics *Soundclip*
I had a shop weld up an exhaust for me the other day. 2.5" from manifold to y pipe to dual 2.25 ebay "n1" mufflers. Right now it is loud but sounds really good. I may add a resonator in the future to quiet it a little more.
Mufflers (2.25 inlet, 3.5 tip) - $80 Shipped for pair
Welding - $70
Y Pipe - $50
Prior visit, 3rd cat delete - $50






If anyone in the chicago area wants to know which muffler shop I went to, PM me.

Soundclip

i have almost identical setup. it cost me 120 bucks for mufflers and all the work

the only difference is that the muffler inlet and exit is about 2.75" and has 4.5" tip. fill the bumper cutout perfectly

post pics later tonight

Looks like a great setup. Kind of like mine. I personally would have gone with mufflers that were a bit bigger though. (HKS or APEX-i turbo) But those still look pretty good. How does it sound?

It looked good on the lift, lol. In person from about 15 feet back, it looks great, sort of oem look. Upclose, i'm not too happy with the look, I would go with larger tips and still might swap them out for 4 - 4.5"

sounds kinda weird to me. mine is a lot deeper. and i still have my resonators and middle cat. doesnt sound like a 6 cyl from the video. its probably the video though. it doesnt do it justice.

you should go to the april 20th chicago meet. show it off i wanna see it
