i made my 2.5" exhaust for about $75. buy all the pipes and clamps at autozone. that was with a 24" cherry bomb resonator and a cheap traight thru muffler. quiet as stock. I borrowed a HF welder to just tack the pipes together after they were clamped to ensure they didnt move. The only spot i had come apart was right before the resonator. i must not have cranked down on it tight enough. dont pay $400 for an exhaust.

 

ya ---- 400, thats more then i spent on everything else. i ended up getting a whole 2.5" turbo back used from a friend for 50bucks. just need to have the DP redone. next time its getting clamped
