I can get you pricing on invidia... I see what you're saying but there are many options out there, is a custom exhaust really worth it?

For the price I think so but in the long run no. I'll be running an amuse kit so I'm gonna want a nice looking CBE since the rear is open around the muffler area

you might as well wait until then for a custom exhaust... you could look for a nice muffler and then get a straight pipe made

cnt is running a special for $499 and top speed is also around the $500 mark. Both are great quality and cheap

I'm getting a custom single exhaust made. Just for the piping from the downpipe to my already purchased 3" HKS Ti muffler, it's going to be $650 for all stainless steel piping and v-bands...and that's from a friend who works out of his garage. A shop wanted to charge me $1200 for 3" piping, HKS muffler, and all v-bands. I was actually surprised how expensive it is...

98 just reminded me I'll be purchasing either the stage 2 GTM SC or the STS rear turbo so I might as well just wait on purchasing an exhaust. I looked at the CNT CBE also but haven't seen any dyno numbers along with a good price I want performance as well.
