This! Exhaust systems are expensive to try to recreate a quality system the materials alone to do it are far from cheap, and then the cost to have a skilled welder / fab shop it's clear why you can easily drop 800-1000+ depending on the exhaust setup.

when you weld for a living its easy, plus this exhaust is tigwelded and tig welds look alot better then mig. I know i do this for a living as well, but just not with tig. Tig requires so much prep work and time, theres some serious time invested in this exhaust system.

Thank you very much....I have the option to add a custom made muffler up stream to soften the sound a little bit but I think I like the way it sounds...its a little aggressive but I kind of like that the sound matches the look yet still sounds refined in a way.

Yeah he had to size it down to meet the factory piping. It will all be 3" once I go turbo
