I just emailed this company called Muffler Tech about piping for a cat-back exhaust setup. I asked specifically about piping for the axel-forward for those who already have an axel-back exhaust system and they said the piping would be 125.00 plus shipping. Also they said the piping was 2.25" Nascar Dynomax Tubing 14 gauge. Anyone know what that is? So for those with a system like RMR or RRM here's an option. Here's Contact info:

What do y'all think?

 

I've been in contact with a local muffler shop and they said they'll do 2.25" crush bent piping for about $100 installed. I'm not sure about all the fancy schmancy Nascar Dynomax mega ultra piping, so I dunno which is the better deal. But hey, now you've got somewhat of a price reference!

 

Mandrel bends allow for the same internal diameter throughout the pipe. Cruch bent pipes pinch down in size at every kink or bend. Depending on the number of bends this could produce a performance drop that would be overcome by purchasing a high quality exhaust system. Wether it makes a really big difference to you is debateable, but why watse money on something substandard? If you ever go F/I you'll never have to worry about it.

 

for the lancer application you'd save yourself money and a little backpressure by having non-mandrel bent tubing, so says the blokes at rpw.

 

Hey... what piping are you talking about? from the muffler to the test pipe?

 

Yep.
