custom exhaust

how much did you guys end up paying to get yours done, i don't want going over the rear axle, just dumping at the mufflers or going out on the side, one shop quoted me 490 bucks for h pipe and some cheapo mufflers so far.

 

you could prolly just DIY and save alot of money, get a universal X or H and buy some clamps if you dont have a welder, some flowmasters purrr , shouldnt be to hard

 

Sounds a little high for around Atlanta. Could be the norm in the Motor City.

 

$160 from manifolds all the way back. That was 1992. Then last summer, I spent $200 just for new mufflers. Nowadays, a full dual set-up runs around $400...

 

I have 3 inch pipes (hope this doesnt start the normal hijack on size) and Flowmaster Super 40 mufflers with a H pipe that dump before the rear axle. Have roughly 250 dollars in parts and paid 100 dollars for pipe bending and installation.

anybody have any expiriance using the borla mufflers? how does it sound? i love that holow sound of the 4.6 stangs.

 

$300 for 2 1/4" aluminized pipe from the headers to the rear bumper with a custom made H-pipe and Dynomax mufflers.

 

I called several shops and they want $150 W/O mufflers and $400 with flow's(40),I like Borlas, but i have never hered them on a mav..they sound awesome on Gt-40's

 

Just found this page, it wont sound the same on different cars but it gives you the idea of how each muffler sounds.

Don't know how they can demonstrate that. Exhaust sound is affected by so many things besides the mufflers, pipe size, cam, heads, compression ratio,etc.

 

the exhaust files won't sound even close to our cars, every car on there is a pontiac grand prix...

 

I know, but you can tell the little differences between mufflers...

 

if you are from california here is the deal; two good 40 series flow master from any jucnk yard 17 bucks each,H pipe 22dllrs from a good chevy donor and the rest tubing and intalation 150 $.
I will say not bad.
Ps 3 ich pipe tubing.

 

I would say that $400 w/mufflers is a pretty good deal, if it is custom made with mandrel j-bends and tig welded. I could'nt see myself doing it for any less. If you just want a muffler shop to press bend you some pipe and throw it up there its about $250 to $300 w/ mufflers around here.

 

Drive down here to Indiana and I will sell you a complete dual exhaust system I just took off of a car. It was less than a year old and has Flowmasters. email me directly for details.
