    If you are looking for 2-1/2" over the axle exhaust pipes, I thought that Bryan/'muffrauder' made them at the new shop where he works.
    Todd/TAF did offer them back in the day...

    Here is the old thread with the information:

    just find a good local exhaust shop, it really isn't rocket science, other than headers, my whole exhaust was done at a local shop for next to nothing

    Mandrel bending is better because a consistent diameter is maintained through the entire curve of piping.
    There are no crimps or wrinkles in the pipe like you see on OEM systems.

    Give Greg a call he can better explain and possible give a quote for the work. I will be getting him to do my full exhaust and he is also the contact I was dealing with to get the possible cat-back exhaust kit made up for our cars but need the money to get mine done so they can take measurements and all.

    Looking for a place to make a custom H-Pipe and this looks like IT. Thanks for the link, I'll be calling them. It is to go behind Stainless Works Headers and a pair of Magnaflow Catalytic Converters.

    Thx!
