Default clamp a whole exhuast together ?

im doing another cheap as possible turbo kit, and i dont feel like paying the 400 everyone wants to build me an exhaust.seems everyone wants an extra 100 frostys this time cause i have an external wg. anyone ever just clamp the ---- together?

i was thinkin having a downpipe (w/ flex hopefully) welded, then 2.5"stright pipe and what like 2 90s and a 45 or 2 (96 civic) and a half dozen clamps and a cheap muffler. cant be that bad, and ive used wire and strapping before to hold the ---- to the hangers

Find a local muffler shop, if you have a muffler local shop does $110 for 2.5" crush bent.

rent a pipe expander from kragen for free and use exhaust clamps.

The pipe expander thing sounds pretty good. the crush bent option is pretty good as well. call around local muffler shops and baby your ---- to the shop. I had one of my turbo civics done about 6 months ago. $270 for three inch mandrel.. Plus you wouldent believe all the other ---- that was included. you never know until you call around.

yeah call the local muffler shops, you can usually get a good deal. one time one shop told me 125 to make me a downpipe so i went somewhere else and they did it for 40. some places have crack prices just need to shop around
