If you want... I'll have it shipped to my US address and you can come pick it up.

Maybe we can save on shipping if we box two together?

Not seeing this bump in shipping cost. Was like $78 through fedex for me. Offered a priority service too. Would be worth adding it to the cart and checking shipping costs and not just going off what people are posting.

you are correct, the automatic shipping that popped up now was just international flat rate, but there is an option for FedEx at $72 for me. I better get it before it's too late.

Sorry if I missed it but what is the time frame to receive the exhaust once it's ordered?

I am so sorry guys. I went through the entire process the other day and the only option was flat rate International which was ~$100 more. Perhaps it changed, then changed again.

Hey Guys,

I'll ask TGS what's going on and get that fixed.

Question: How long does it take to have product in hand?
TGS >> "We say up to 2 weeks but usually get them done within 1 week, it all depends how busy the shop gets"

No just the exhaust. The midpipe is a separate item for sale.

The exhaust can be repackable for extra. The mid pipe is around 400 iirc

Can you post some pics of the flanges and such? Wondering if they are back welded. And what are your thoughts on the overall quality?

Wouldn't let me edit:

Observation:

They should weld the muffler the other way around, so the bolts for the "re-packable" canister are on the inside, and less visible.

Then you would have to uninstall the exhaust to repack it. Not terrible but I hate removing my exhaust, I'm not sure why lol

I have not received my exhaust yet tbknowso.
