gettin custom piping done instead

i originally planned on getting a full cat back system..but after reading what you guys did to your rides i decided to buy a muffler and resonator and have some shop do the piping for me...i called some place and they said it would cost about 200 for the custom pipes (2.25")...iono bout the installation of the muffler and resonator...but hopefully everything comes to be about 400 or less....what do you guys think? oh by the way..im gettin a magnaflow muffler #14816 with a 22" resonator...

hey thanks klepto for the input....200 sounds good for the pipes and installation...400 should be enough for everything including muffler, resonator, custom pipes and installation

It cost me 200 for the piping and they were gonna charge me another 75 for the resonator and magnaflow is if I remember correctly 175 so its a bit over 400 if you were around here. Definately get the resonator though, I regret not getting it.

Ok how much for the muff, and how much for the res. + 200 for piping you could have gotten a nice set up off ebay for the same price and bolted it up your self.
