So im ready to get my exhaust done and i called my friend who is part owner of a meineke here in New York. He tells me he cant bend a pipe bigger then 2 and half inch and from his calls to flowmaster and magnaflow he cant get a 3inch rear section in stanless steel for my truck. He is a little upset becasue his partner is his wifes dad doesnt invest in any new equipment so when work like this comes around he gets pissed that he has to pass on them.

ANyway where can i get a rear section in stanless steel mailed to my house? :lol:

Gary appreciate all your help but if you see one on those sites post up the direct link. I have called and emailed some of the sites after i went through google search and most of them do not have a 3inch rear section. Either they dont have it or its not in stanless or they sell it with a muffler which i dont need.

Thanks

Re: Exhaust.

bite the bullet get the one with the muffler

Thanks but no thanks. I got the ATR muffler that i purchased a few months back. The economy now a days does not tell me to bite the bullett and spend money. Maybe for you but not for me. HAHAHA

Thanks again i appreciate the help. :tup:

" He tells me he cant bend a pipe bigger then 2 and half inch..."

no disrespect to you or your friend, but am i missing something here? an exhaust shop that can't bend larger (3") than 2.5. i know for a fact it's super hard to impossible to bend 4" or larger at least down here. i can only order 4"+ pre bent pipes and i can only bend up to 3". did he lose some of the bending shoes?

let us know if you find the stainless piece for your truck. i'd like to know where (for my customer's) you can get it from also. good luck with your search

His father in law basically set up the meineke shop to replace the exhaust systems with stock ones. THis means that they are alrerady bent and ready to be installed. His father in law never thought of expanding into aftermarket setups and installs. That is what he told me. Also he is a person that i know for a long time from the old neighborhood not really a close friend but a good guy. :D

Re: Exhaust.


I think im going to have no other choice but the price is up there,,,,DAM. I also need to replace the mid pipe which sytyperformance has it for 115.00 dollars. Its going to be a 500 dollar cat back exhaust system.

I also noticed this mid pipe is for a full three inch full exhaust. What about if i dont have a full three inch exhaust and just want to do a three inch cat back. Do i put an adapter???

What did others use for the mid pipe if you went from stock to three inch cat back????

If you are running the stock cat then this would most likely work for you. If you read what Mike put up, its states,

"This kits bolts directly to a stock, oem replacement catalytic converter or test pipe. Features 304 stainless piping, clamps. Muffler is not included, and replaced with a straight pipe. Direct bolt on in less than 30 minutes."

I would take it as being complete from the cat back.:tup:
 
Re: Exhaust.

Have you tried talking directly to Mike at RPM about what you need? Seems like it'd be easy enough to sell you a kit w/out a test pipe( a muffler back system?)
