opinion on exhaust fabrication

Where can i buy exhaust tubing and have it bent? im considering fabricating my own exhaust as minute muffler is bitching about my exhaust and quoting me upwards of close to or more 500$ and im supplying my own muffler (turbo back exhaust)

im wondering think i could fab one up myself for alot cheaper using the existing hangers

what is minute muffler bitching about?

about the downpipe saying it could take 1 hour or 3

but wont tell me so i could take it in there expecting a 200 dollar job for the "cat" back to my own muffler than get dinged anoter 300 for the downpipe

not to mention the resonator

ya i had my down pipe on and got them to build from that back and it was like 150 or 200. can't remember

catbacks at minute muffler north are usually $200 flat

ive *heard* they dont even touch stuff right off the turbo, so maybe theyre chancing it with your car?

catbacks not including muffler or resonator just pipe?

and yeah well they said theyd do a downpipe and i want them to i just dont like the fact they say it could take 1-3 hours

1hour-75 bucks plus material
3hours-225 plus material

but first i need the damn thing to run to drive down there.

anyone ever mess around with emanage come help me this weekend ahah

ya adrians right they dont touch shit off the turbo....

I was told they don't even touch stuff off the turbo due to legality issues.

My cat back cost me $375.
Its an exhaust, you need one, you might as well get one made, its still going ot be cheaper than buying one.
If you have your heart set on building one, qc performance sells mandrel bent pipe. You probably just need a j bend and you're good to go

well they will for me

but its just hard to think about spending 500 on a bunch of pipe when i can spend like 100 bucks more and buy name brand

then do it. why are you gettit it made.
They obviously do not "want" to do it for you, or they wouldn't be charging you out the ass for it. just buy aftermarket then. or attempt to make yourself

cam make a decision you pussy lol

2nd i wana see the beast lol

my car is out of tune too, so your asking the wrong person lol

you cannot tune it without your wideband. any tune you make will be compeletly useless and so out of whack, you will probably end up doind more damage than good

i have a wideband and its installed

since last night?
well good job then!

still cant tune the bitch i dunno wtf is wrong. someone says my timing is off but i have not touched the timing belt since it was proffessionaly replaced so unless it somehow slipped a few teeth it cant be off. and if it did slip shit should be fucked up no?

your timing belt did not slip teeth. if it did, you would be fucked. You have no idea how uncommon it is for a timing belt to slip.

Does your car have a distrtriputor to control the spark?
if so, that also controls your timing. Your ignition timing to be exact. make sure that is set correctly

i realize that thats why i said i dont think that happened but soemthien seems to be messed i messed with the dizzy already and could not notice any different advancing or retarding it

i get frustrated even listening about your car (i dont know how you feel)

welcome to the car game... gotta pay to play. considering it's fabbed from scratch it's a small price considering people pay 1200 plus for kits and then pay to get them installed as well.

what kinda car is this? I've been known to fab some stuff from time to time.
