the last part of my turbo equation is getting an exhaust. i want to do it for cheap. $300 about. i live in NJ so it needs to pass emissions. I know you can get mandrel bent pipe for pretty cheap and a cat for like $100. so why are exhausts so damn expensive? anyone live in NJ wanna make me one for $300?

bump out of necessity! The question is....

WHere is a good place to go to get a custom exhaust done???????

Adriano

mkteller on this siter sell exhaust kit for cheap. try doing a search, he had a group by before. As for inspection, just pay like 100-120 on most private garage and they will pass you.

thanks. these guys always beat around the bush when i call them. i found a bunch of people saying they liked them and their work but when i called them and i asked for an approx. price they were like "you have to bring it down. 45 mins down. 45 mins back just to do it again when they can schedule me in. or a trip just for them to quote me $500 is not what im looking for. i emailed them again. maybe they will be more straight forward

this is Bigwig...(damn trial is suposed to be over after 5 days). anyway...got some estimates. im getting $6-700 from a lot of places. isnt that way too high?

BrokenVtec

that is extremely high. is that including the cat and muffler? as well as all the labor to put it on?

bigwig

yes. that includes everything.....

To do a 409SS system (all mandrel bends)with cat and 2.5' flex pipe and Magnaflow SS muffler figure in the $600/$700 range parts labor

BrokenVtec

I still think thats kind of steep. for that price you can get an aftermarket exhaust and cat

bigwig

i agree. you have an suggestions where to look. that exact quote is from mufflex....

DLOTYPER

did you guys ever think of simply buying the 3 inch mild steel bends from aq shop,, one such place is California speed shop in new brunswick,,, they have all american **** there, but they also have straight pieces and the u bends and all that ****, then bring that to like midas or some ****,,,,, i have a dp back 3 inch from Mufflex, its heavy as hell, its mandrel bent,, its 1 piece so i have to take the ****** right rear lower control arm out when i remove the exhaust, and my boy who originaly baught it from there paid something like 500 for it 2 years ago, with a flexpipe and no muffler. I dont know i think they take advantage of people hardcore out here,, and honestly i thin kif you can find somebody that can do 2.75 exhaust, like many muffler shops, you should be ok,,,,, i always hear **** or read **** that says 3 inch is to big for our motors that we usually turbo or supercharge, so i dont know just a suggestion

Happyman

Mufflex welded my exaust that I bought from Mkteller. Good place nice guys so to speak

Prod

isn't there a midas or meinike in sayreville that does 3 inch custom exhausts ?

I always see the ad at etown

btw bigwig kicks *** !!!

bigwig

bigwig is a kick *** band. if you ever go to a bigwig show...ill be there. anway, ill have to call the meinike's and midas's now...i wanted to try to stay away from those guys since normally they arent as talented...but i guess ill try calling them....i dunno...the guy supposed to sell me his turbo kit is now backing off b/c i said i wanted to do the sale via paypal or COD so i dont get fucked over sending him a money order and not getting any merch....

BoostedEF

You could look for Tuner M I think they in sayervill
