Re: Finished my new Cherry Bomb cat-back
Agreed. Here's a cost break-down from Summit Racing for basically what I have:
2 X Cherry Bomb muffler (P/N 87701): $57.90
-Use what you want, but to fit that layout you need mufflers that are as compact as possible.
1 X Magnaflow 94007 Car: $90.95
2 X Summit Racing mandrel bent 2" J-pipes: $29.90
1 X Summit Racing mandrel bent 2.5" J-pipe: $19.95
1 X Summit Racing 2.5" straight pipe: $13.95
Total: $212.65 + shipping. Tips not included, but figure another $100 for a decent set. I also haven't included a good way of replacing the stock main cat with the Magnaflow one, so that will involve your own ingenuity. As a side not, fabricating the Y-Pipe like the one I have is quite labour intensive. The cuts aren't straight, they're curved so that as it is welded together it ends up being 2.5" ID at the entrance.
Edit: Found some nice looking oval tips that would fit the bill for a budet build: Jones Exhaust Part Number PRS600SS. 2.25" inlet, 6" wide outlet, 9" long. List at $25 each. They even have a rolled edge and slant cut tip to blend in perfectly.
