Magnaflow 2.25" Catback

Anyone know the cheapest place on the web to get this catback system? I've made my decision on it and so far the cheapest i've found is $399 plus shipping at RRM. Any other options?

After further research and cutting of costs while maximizing efficiency for my turbo project i've decided to do a custom 2.5 pressbent catback with any decent stainless ebay muffler with a silencer i can find. Any ballpark figures on costs to have a muffler shop bend some pipe and weld the muffler on and weld the flange for the cat? I'm hoping under 150? Let me know guys

Thanks!

By ebay muffler i didnt mean POS potato launcher haha, something decent. I"m keeping an eye out for either a magnaflow (with 2.5 inlet, all of them seem to be 2.25) or something decent. I'm going to keep an eye out this week while i do nothing at work and if somethin comes along i'll be buyin it. So hopefully by early next next week i'll have a catback

you need 2.25, it will fit better because that is probably the size piping that the shop will use.

I'm not going 2.25. I'm going 2.5 press bent. Most shops dont have mandrel benders, and for the application it will be used for (low boost turbo) a 2.5 press bent system is just as good at balancing backpressure and flow as a 2.25 mandrel bent system. Eventually i'll upgrade to mandrel,but for now the 2.5 press will do.

*update - Went to midas, guy wants 220 for the piping, needless to say i will be shopping elsewhere*

midas is garbage, you should go to a place that is small, or one that is not a franchise.
