Dimensions for a custom test pipe

Just gauging interest here, but is anyone on the forums skilled enough to produce/make the dimensions for a test pipe from the header to the resonator or muffler/tip? Im interested in getting a test pipe and/or high flow cat, but the prices here are too expensive! I'm sure it'd be easier to find a local shop, or a welder who could do all of it for you, whilst it looking similar to RRM quality. The question here is anyone willing to mock one up, then post up the dimensions and fittings so that you can go get it done yourself?

Brotherhood People!!!

Hm...Wouldn't it cost the same to make the test pipe than to buy the test pipe from RRM already made i'm guessing..

But all you would need to do is take your car to a muffler shop or a exhaust shop. Take out your actual catalytic converter and measure it up and make it from your old flanges on your converter. They should be able to do it right then and there for you also.

i mean for me, the test pipe would be around 100-ish for the tp then 20-30 shipping. im pretty sure id save more $ getting it put on myself, than paying for shipping. or at least it seems like that to me

Well, if you use my idea it should work out just fine. Because you would also need the bung hole for the o2 sensor. Taking it from the cat converter shouldn't be a problem.
