Default cat-back piping only?

hi...i have a couple of questions on exhaus...i have an apexi n1 muffler that ive already been running for a while...but now im gonna be running a turbo, so i need to get some piping from the cat-back to the muffler...should i just get this done at a muffler shop?...also i really want an angled install like this:

...ive heard that this angle is from the apexi cat-back exhaust?...is that true...if so does anyone sell the piping only?..and can the angle easily be done if i just ask a shop to do it when they do the piping?

thanks for any help

Muffler shops can definitely do the piping. Just ask for mandrel bent, instead of crimp bent for better flow. As for the diameter u shoudl get, I'm not sure for turbo setup, but 2.25 or 2.5 for N/A is good.

goodluck finding a decent muffler shop to do mandrel bent piping......just buy a 2.5" catback exhaust somewhere......better quality and probably going to be less expensive in the long run...

when i was in the market I called everyone near me and found 1 place that did mandrel bends. They did a great job and were reasonably priced though.
I almost want to take the exhaust they did out of my coupe for my new hatch. lol
