Learn how to weld.

This way you don't have to listen to anyone, "Cheap" out on ebay exhausts (Don't know how you can cheap out on piping, but w/e) and you can build what you want.

If it were me?

3.5" 304 stainless steel piping-to Stainless V band flanges-to Carbon Ti. Sex.

Carbon Ti is my favorite, i'm sure you can grab one from a supra but i dont think you'll want a single exit.

I have megans, and they are pretty nice subtle. Quiet almost like stock.

The GReddy SP2s look great, thats what I meant by 5Zigen-ish OEM style, lol.

With your attention to cleanliness and keeping things symmetrical, I assume you'll run duals still.

Are you willing to find good mufflers and have them welded, or are you looking for direct bolt-on?

I wouldnt try anything custom yet. Till you go NA/T, cause if you go turbo size piping now you car is gonna suck. You spend double the money changing later if you go custom now. So eather go expensive mufflers you will still want & will work after you go turbo, or go cheep now just to get you by till turbo. My mufflers are top speed univerals, like 50ea.

Thanks man, and I definitely don't mind custom piping, I just need some clean looking mufflers at the moment because the piping itself can always be redone later down the road.

I definitely agree with you man. However, I don't know how soon I will turbo it yet, so I need something in the meantime. I'm kinda on the fence at the moment about all this. Maybe just put some stock mufflers on if I can find a used set? I don't know.

I've always liked SW's exhaust (custom boostlogic exhaust)

or if you can find a Phoenix Power / Garage Fukui Departure III
http://forum.clubna-t.com/showthread.php?t=8360

or finding these would also be sick Greddy MX

SP2 looks sexy, Otherwise custom is your best bet man

Thought about taking the Carbon/Ti off of my Supra but I think the canister is too big. Would probably sound badass though.

I had a Greddy SP on my old GSX, very nice tone, nice and deep, but like mentioned before, hard to find just the mufflers (I got lucky).

I ended up going with a set of Magnaflows. A lot cheaper than some of the others, flow and sound real nice.
