New exhuast, N1 style 3" full stainless

I am testing out a new line of exhausts for a friend that is opening a shop. www.ipnindustries.com here in houston tx, is expanding to a shop in the really near future, and wanted me to test their line of exhausts. They are top-notch fit and finish, full stainless, heavy duty hangers, use all factory hangers, N1 style smooth muffler, straight-thru design, mine is turbo so its 3", same manufactuer as the JIC line of exhausts..... Best thing of all, I will prolly get to keep the thing! Works out for me ****, I also get to go up there for prototyping of fmic's, radiator hard pipe kits, and any other work i would like..... sweet!

I'm local and very interested. Can he fabricate a dual system with a 3'' y pipe back? or maybe a passenger side exit for the dual.

What is he charging? I got my own Dual N1 Cans and 3 IN RB DP & had full 3 inch all the way back fabricated for under $200 Y pipe and all. So he needs to come in competative on that stuff cause any shop can do that setup if you supply the cans.

DAMN that looks good kinda like mine after i polish it
Id consider it if the price was good, hey is stainless easier to maintain and clean then the metal the N1 is made of?? Cuz im cleaning my exaust canister constantly it seems to get dirty way too easy

Nice. I like how it exits on the driver's side. Kind of a JDM-ish look....don't see many single kits that do that. Now only if it had that Apex'i angle to it

heh menat single. I can take a single catback if it's coming out of the passenger side. It just looks more balanced to me :shrug: I can fill in the cutout for the other muffler

Look at the pic again - it *is* angled.

The Apexi GT Series is a driver's side exit, as is the Corksport exhaust. IMHO, I would prefer a passenger side exit - keeps the noise a little farther from the driver . I have the GT series anyhow, though.

Any idea on pricing and availability?

Dale

The exhaust is JDM they are getting them made from the same company that makes JIC's exhausts (http://www.jic-magic.com/exhaust/), from Japan. Its all very high quality, hangers are thick and heavy duty, all welds are beautiful. They have not opened up yet, so I don't know pricing, I'm going to put more pictures of it off and get some close ups of the welds, and muffler. I would like to know what you would pay for it. Yes you can get a custom made for cheap, but high quality, and fit and finish are also important. I'll keep everybody posted on this, since there seems to be interest. I can ask about duals what do you want the specs to be? dual 3" Y pipe to dual 3" N1 mufflers?

my downpipe/midpipe is 3'' all the way back....I was going to go for the n1 dual but found out it was only 2.5'' at the flange of the midpipe. I was going to go custom, but this caught my eye
