Custom Exhaust ?

[Black96SVT]

I am thinking about having a custom mid pipe made up for my car since I cant afford the huge price for the Kooks shorty OR X
My set up is Kooks LTs with a 3" flange, then the custom x, and then 2.5" custom cat back with 1 chamber mufflers and then dumped

My thoughts for the mid pipe are should I go with just a straight pipe design or would it be best to go with a cross over design? I am hopping to find a good place to do it locally. Also do you think I could have it done for around 200 bucks?

200? Probably not, I think it would take at least 2-3 hours because making a custom H or X is the hardest part. I would go H because it is easier to fabricate. And yes, keep the crossover, it equalizes pressure between both sides.

i was shooting low, I have more then that but was just hopping haha

by a universal 3" x pipe kit from jegs or summit and have an exhaust shop customize it to fit your application.

x-pipe and single chamber flows FTW. Definitely the meanest sounding exhaust I have had on my car yet.

buy a universal 3" x pipe kit.
+1
& the local muff shop can fab somthing up for you.the muff shop down the street from me used my old bbk x pipe cut & welded it to fit!! for a 100 bucks!!

i dont want to hijack, but i think my question kind of pertains to the op's:



so i shouldnt worry to just go to a good muffler shop and have them make me a custom xpipe?

without buying a kit or anything, just have them make one for me? i had checked into this earlier, and AAA in venice quoted me $150 for the xpipe including the install.


would it be as good as a name brand pipe?

so I was looking at this: Magnaflow True X 3"

so if I had bought that for say.. 100 bucks it would probably be another 100/200 bucks for them to do the rest of the work to fit it?

I am going to try and stop by some local places and see what they say
