I think you're better off getting it custom made at a local muffler shop.

dont do a muffler shop they crimp the bends and its just not as good as iff you do mandrel. Buy a 2.5" or 3" exhaust mandrel U bend from Summit I thik there about 25 dollars get a hacksaw or pipe cutter and make your own then take it to a muffler shop or welding place and have it welded together shouldnt have more than $40 or so in it and a little time fitting it up.

my guess is unless you fit it up and cut the pipe up and run it for yourself is that a muffler shop wont touch it. I could be wrong though. If they did do it and you brought them the piece of mandrel piping it would probably be about 75-100 for them to fit it up and weld it.
