3sgte exhaust, what to go with Options

[6g25th]

I am about to buy my 3sgte, but I am not sure what to do for an exhaust. Is is possible to just go to a muffler shop and have them bend some pipes and fit it up or is it better to buy a cat-back exhaust? All of the cat's are like $500! Wouldn't it be cheaper to go to a muffler shop?

I don't mind telling. The exhaust cost $1065 but is a work of art. The entire thing was pieced together via mandrel bends and straight pieces with a flex pipe up front, magnaflow resonator and muffler, and a gorgeous tip. All Stainless Steel of course. I'll be posting pics later tonight hopefully in the completed swap thread.

look you know i love you and your car but all of the swappers who have 3" exhaust have mandrel bends, a flex pipe, and most even have magnaflow mufflers.. i think you are upselling your exhaust too much

i paid 600 for mine and its perfect.. except i wanted straight pipe coming out the back (no gaudy chrome tip, just not my style) but he put a downturn on it, so im gonna take it back and make him fix it since i said i wanted it to exit straight

the craftsmenship is very high quality, the guy i had do it won numerous awards for his exhaust setups from MIR dragsters.

also one thing id like to point out is that my exhaust is street legal, i have a high flow cat
