Custom exhasut price.

I went to a local muffler shop the other day and got a quote on custom cat back piping for my 3.0. I got a an exact price of $404 after taxes. that's 2.5" piping, with a resonator and magnaflow muffler. Does that sound right? those of you with custom cat backs, how much did you pay?

yea, i bought my apexi n1 muffler, and only paid 100 for installation with 2 1/2 inch piping. But the muffler cost me 225. As long as you have your muffler, the installation with custon piping should cost you no more than 100 bucks. Unless your doing Mandrel bent piping, cause that is more expensive, and better too.

371 for mandrel bent and custom piping... in colorado there is probably less competition... that price is fine as long as it is mandrel bent... I got 2.25 inch so I guess that price is acceptable.

I am thinking about a custom catback job on my 2.3. My exhaust it actting a little funny probably end up with the 2 inch pipe and just attach a muffler to it. What does the resonator do and where is it?

u should get 2.25 piping with magnaflow #14815 exhaust tip with resonator. hmm...i think the resonator makes the exhaust not to loud and keep the sound more cleaner and not ricey. correct me if im wrong but thatz wut i thought.

sorry to quote myself.

additionally I got the magnaflow muffler and the magnaflow resonator.... the clear things up.

the resonator does what it saids... it resonates giving a deeper tone.
