Anyone have some suggestions for the best solution price-wise? I've seen one online for about $160. I am open to new or used.

thanks,

For $170 you can get an RB one. It's 2.5in down to 2.25in after the split. It will last a long time. If you have an N/A it's a little bigger than stock and the same on a TII. That might be to much $, but the quality is good.

Any generic muffler shop can make you a Y-pipe for cheap.

I called up Midas and they are quoting me $300 for one and they'd have to order it... talk about nuts! Well what should I expect to pay at a "normal" muffler shop for a custom pipe?

thanks!

Jesus! I can't believe it would cost that much. Please don't spend that much and by an RB or go to another shop. I wouldn't spend more than $150 (thats high).

Eh any chain store is a BIG NONO!!!!!!

Find a custom exhaust shop. Call up your local SCCA chapter and ask them for recommendations, or visit an autoX one day and talk to the people there.

They must have the parts in stock, as it's just a basic Y-connector and some tubing. What specifically did you ask them for?

FYI, a cheap custom exhaust plumbing job runs $100-200 in my area.

Josepi's idea is great, but I don't think that you will be able to afford a quality racing exhaust system. I guess it doesn't hurt to check around, though. The turbo-back exhaust for my 20B was made by the leading SCCA race shop in my area, and it cost me $1,600, not including the cat and mufflers.

go to Speedee Mufflers in San Jose. That is where I had my custom y-pipe done. Theyre good and not expensive too.

You don’t need this as a separate component. A decent exhaust builder will just cut and blend the three pipes together. It’s not that hard.

Is just call around and find an exhaust shop that will work with me (NOT MIDAS!!! )

Thanks for all your input!
