Custom Built Mandrel 2.5" Catback Exhaust
Custom Built Mandrel 2.5" Catback Exhaust
Well I decided I wanted a custom job for the Ralliart. And when I say custom I mean that. This catback is one picece. It is made for this car and made very solid. It has all Magnaflow parts including the bends and the straight piping. I utilizex a Magnaflow 4x9 oval muffler and a Maganaflow resonator.
The tone is very good. It is combined with the RRM Downpipe and as in intial raspiness but once you are going it is nice and deep and it perfroms very well. I don't think the car performs much different from the pressbent system it once had although it feels better. The exhaust is more solid now and the benedit of stainless is that it will never rust.
Just so everyone knows I did not really save any money going this route over buying the RRM catback. All of the parts costed me around $250 and the labor was $200, and the gas well it was a drive so you can say $30 for that. So at $480 you could have RRM, but I wanted custom and 2.5" so here it is. When you do things right it costs alot more. In a better note I will be selling the catback I pulled off from the car. Watch for that soon.
It will be ready for the RRM Turbo or headers whichever the wife wants thrown at it first. Either way this exhaust is truly a part of the car as the pictures will define.

Your a Michigan native. It was done at PF&E in Harrison Township.
