Custom bent exhaust piping
I may be getting a 95 EX either monday or tuesday and when I do, the first thing I wanna do is get rid of that damn little exhaust it has. I'm wanting a 3" mandrel bent catback with a magniflow muffler. I can put the muffler on myself but I need the piping done for me. I know its not just a little large, its friggin HUGE for this car. I figure if I ever upgrade the engine, swap it out and/or turbocharge it, I've already got the exhaust squared away and I don't have to worry about it anymore.
So, does anybody know where I can get this done? Thanks!

i'd seriously consider waiting on that 3" unless you're going to go FI very soon. Not only will you possibly loose a lot of usable power, but it's not just a 'bolt up' affair.
Most muffler shops only can do crush bends. You'd probably be better off buying the 3" elbows and some straight pipes and having a muffler shop weld them together.
You'll also need to create a flanged connection to mate the 3" exhaust with your cat (which is more like 2 - 2 1/4").

Re: Custom bent exhaust piping (mattcxb18)
I figured if I kept the headers stock then I really wouldn't lose much horsepower. But yeah, I wouldn't do this for awhile so maybe your right and I should just go with something smaller at first...
