Default Building Custom Exhaust for my NSX: Need Suggestions for Parts/Supplies

Hi Guys, need your help on some suggestions. I recently acquired an NSX and boy, the parts are ridiculously expensive.... So I decided to build my own custom exhaust which should turn out to be a lot cheaper, better quality, and on top of that, unique.

Where can I get some good quality piping and flanges to build the exhaust? I use Burns usually, but Im trying to find a cheaper alternative.

Where's the best place to buy V-Band Flanges and Couplings?

Where is a good place to purchase different types of mufflers for my custom set up besides Magnaflow and the such...

Lastly, I wanted to make my own round exhaust tip in a 3.5 in diameter... anybody have suggestions?

I have the required welding skills, but i've just been so out of the loop for the past 5 years that I really dont know where to get the stuff... I have a great idea for the NSX exhaust, i just need the parts to do it now... Hope to hear from you guys soon.. Im trying to make this as cheap as possible, but use quality or unique parts and piping...

Please help a brotha out.. hope to hear from you soon..

Burns or vibrant come to mind. Although I don't think you'll get what you're looking for without purchasing an off the shelf kit that has some R&D into it.

You did buy an NSX, so remember that

Very happy with the service here:

I've done a couple of NSX exhausts (both turbo and NA); they are pretty straightforward.

i did 3-4 nsx exhausts in a row 3-4 years ago, can only find pictures of the ghetto one. this guy supplied his own parts and bought all mild steel stuff. i tried talking him out of it but he didnt want to spend the money on stainless?

parts inventory was very straight forward. just 2 3 bolt flanges, a muffler, and some bends
