Exhaust design
 

I was glancing through my summit catalog last evening and I was struck by a thought and I wanted to see if any of you all had tried this yet. I know I've seen some pics on here for exhaust that exits before the rear tire like a lightning. I was thinking that I could do this out of just off the shelf parts. I was looking into using a SI/DO Flowmaster muffler and a couple of mandrel bends out of the catalog. Or you all that have done this had the bends done custom.. Either way I really like the look and would like to get it done. Just curious...

alot of people have done this. im surethey will chime in.

Here is my Bassani cat back. Complete kit that bolts right up, kinda expensive but I love it. You could do the Flowmaster fairly easily, I know that quite a few others here have done that very thing.

this is how i've been thinking of doing mine. I just want a single pipe though.
Why are the kits alot more then a full system[to the rear]? it's less tubing.
If you do it, be sure top post pics, specs, and definately a audio file.

The set up I got is all stainless steel which is more expensive than the aluminized.

I got my flows lightning style for $170, I think Christian's was like $125.. they work pretty cheap down here. We don't hafta worry about salt though, and aluminized is wayy cheaper than stainless.. call some muffler shops and get some quotes.

I was thinking about doing this mod myself... That is out of parts and pieces that you can buy through a catalog or just pick up at a parts store... I have all the tools that I would need except for a mandrel tubing bender. Thats where I need a little input on what exactly to use. Everything else with what I have in mind shouldn't pose too much of an issue....
