Your local muffler shop. Mine with a HKS CarbonTi cost me a little less than $400 all together.

That's just the catback. What I did was I bought the Racing Beat 3" downpipe and 3" presilencer, and a 3" flange from their site. I then bought the HKS muffler off of ebay(brand new in box for 280 shipped). I bolted on the downpipe and presilencer, drove that to the muffler shop, showed them my 3" flange and hks muffler and said "This is my race car, make a catback using this flange and this muffler that exits on the right with as few bends as possible. He did so and it looks beautiful. This setup is also particularly quiet for a 3" single! Two things to note here: Most muffler shops will not do mandrel bends, so you'll have to bring your own mandrel pipe bender and let them borrow it if you want a "perfect" catback. Also, If you want something fancy, like stainless steel, you're going to have to pay quite a bit extra, as stainless steal is both expensive as a material, and difficult to weld. There's nothing wrong with mild steel though. My guy didn't use either, he had some sort of aluminum alloy pipe that he used exclusively as he wasn't fond of mild steel. I highly suggest doing what I did, it turned out beautifully. Find out from your local car guys where a nice muffler shop is(the one I picked was highly recommended by all the domestic guys) and take it there. Anyway, that's my story, good luck!

So can I just buy a cat back and have my neighbors shop weld it to a strait 3'' pipe?Im trying to think of the cheapest way possible.I miss my exhaust allready.Is that Apexi N1 right exit single exhaust a good exhaust or just name hype.I'd probly need something that has a silencer that I can buy also.

The N1 dual exhaust is loud I don't want to think about the single. And you can clean and polish any SS can with some metal or wheel polish.

The single and dual N1's are about the same volume wise. Their tones are slightly different though.

The single has a pre-muffler, resonator and canister. The dual has 2 resonators and two cans. So, they end up at about the same volume.

This is the case on TII's anyways, but the difference couldn't be any more noticable on an n/a.
