Default need help/advice.

I have 1996 SC400. I'm looking to take the performance up a bit. Has anyone seen the Milltek 90 mm exhaust on the SC400? Also II've been looking for a performance/customization shop that I can ship it to so I can have everything done at once.

IMHO, it is easier and cheaper to make your own catback. Grab some 2.25" mufflers a x-pipe and some pipes. If your local guy doesn't have a mandrel bender go with 2.5" pipes. In te end it costs about $500 for everything including labor. Haven't done my SC yet but several othe cars. If I had a lift, it would literally cost me $60 in pipe, $150 for the mufflers, $40 for the xpipe, and $80 for two 8" glass packs. That's how I'd do it, however since I gutted my cats a while back I'd add two 3" high flow cats at $80 and $300 on headers

Hope that helps.

Thanks for the tip. Im clueless under the hood so I'm definitely going to shop around. I've priced some pipes already. I'd rather pay the cost of getting it done right the first time rather than trying it myself wich will cost more down the road.
