Im pretty sure I am going to with this: Vibrant 1141 Ultra Quiet Resonator 2.50 in Inlet/Outlet | eBay and this : Magnaflow 14815 Performance Muffler w/ Tips 5x8x14 Oval 2.25" Inlet | eBay with an exhaust shop doing custom 2.5 inch piping. Im looking for a more aggressive deeper tone but not much drone and nothing that is drawing excessive attention under heavy acceleration. What do you guys think? How much do you think is a decent price for the custom piping and labor? Im going to start calling around tomorrow to local exhaust shops.

 

Looks like it'll work to me. What are you doing for for the cat and downpipe?

 

I was supposed to get mine welded up today but they wanted $500 without a downpipe, $650 with a downpipe. I lol'd and walked out

 

Wont they do a downpipe for me? Im gonna get a test pipe after i get my ft tune as ill get rear o2 delete with that tune. Was thinking of wrapping cat shell around test pipe. In ma they have visual inspection and plug into obd2. Theres no sniffer anymore.

 

Didnt jeremy pay like $200 for the piping and he only brought in a muffler and res as well?

 

Yeah they have a local guy up there who does good work for very reasonable prices. I was supposed to get mine done at the last meet up there but ended up having to work that weekend.

 

Sounds a little high to me. My exhaust guy didn't want to make a downpipe so I bought a Milltek 2.5" downpipe for ~$200, and he built me a downpipe-back exhaust for ~$350-400 including Magnaflow resonator, and I supplied the muffler.

This is where I got my downpipe, and is probably the cheapest you'll find:

Thats in ny? I wonder how many hours from me that is. Do you know what town its in? Edit: so wait does tgat downpipe have a resonator on it? Im a little confused. If you look at the pic of the pipe it looks like a resonator toward the end.

 

The picture is inaccurate (as the caption below the picture suggests it could be). It's just a flange (connects to cat), a mandrel bent pipe, a flex joint, and another mandrel bent pipe all welded together, with a hanger also welded on.
