Average cost of Custom Catback?

I was wondering if I could get some ball park figures from the guys who got custom catbacks done. Lets include everyone who got 2.5' and 2.25' tubing. Just to set a format and keep it easy to read.

Pipe Diameter;
Pipe Cost;
Muffler brand/tip size;
Muffler price;
Price after install;

Over all satisfaction; 1-10 10 being the best.
Comments; (any)


Thanks guys. It's a struggle.. to make these kinds of calls with out any thing to base it on.

Forced induction != cat-back exhausts. Please pay attention to where you're posting new threads.

Moving to US Gen.

Sorry hobie I was thinking.. exhaust, leads to headers, leads to intake leads to force induction... since there wasn't a exhaust forum and well.. FI eventually ends up there =)

And it wasn't really any other.. but I can understand General.

Thanks.. (still thinking about getting the Buscher)
