Don't do a glasspack. Most glasspacks have big "dimple" things inside that hugely restrict flow. Get an actual resonator. Also make sure they are doing manderal bent piping and not crush bent. Probably about every quote you get will be for crush bent piping if you don't specify manderal bent pipe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CleanGSR Posted April 22, 2009 Share Posted April 22, 2009 any idea what price i should be looking for? Not a clue. Closest shop to me that does mandrel bending is 1-2 hours away so I never really had this option. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mitchness Posted April 24, 2009 Share Posted April 24, 2009 Custom, mandrel bend, cat-back will be ~$300 depending on type of pipe. Aluminized steel- <$300. Stainless- >$300. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Xeryon Posted April 25, 2009 Share Posted April 25, 2009 You don't have to tell me where beavercreek is. I thought we already covered the fact that I live in Ohio. Not to mention that google maps still works. Muffler Brothers operates a chain of independent shops through this area. I have one that I go to regularly in Urbana. The guy there always gives me a quote to do it the 'right' way and then offers to do it any other way I specify as long as I pay in cash. As an example. I was quoted $350 to run a new full exhaust including muffler and catalytic converter on my 86 gmc 1500 using stock diameter piping. Or, if I paid $300 cash with no receipt I could get true duals running 2.5 piping with no cats and two flowmaster (or whatever equivalent) mufflers. It would not be a stretch to see them charge only $100-$150 for hanging 2.5 pipe connected to your original cat with your provided muffler.
