Default Exhaust Mounting Opinions...

Hey everyone, I'm having my exhaust done this weekend, and I was debating a couple of options... I already have the muffler so the shop will do the piping.

1) I can go to the shop, let them pipe from where the exhaust terminates right now (behind right rear tire, had muffler removed) and just mount the muffler in a stock location.

2) I can have them do all of the piping, although I still have a stock header and would like to eventually upgrade.

3) I can buy U-bends and have them use those to do either of the two options above.

I guess my main question is.... should I do a little now, and finish it later? or should I just get the whole thing done, and do it again later? TIA...

do the whole thing now, so you don't have to deal with it later.

Thanks everyone for the input..... but what about the size of the exhaust? Just do it now, keep the stock size, and change it again later when I buy a header?

no don't keep the stock size piping... Go with 2.25 or 2.5 and have him weld a flange that will mount to your cat. that way you can get a high flow cat later on.... and get it all done at once it'll be cheaper in the some what long run.....
