Default 6" steel pipe?

Looking for 4"-6" steel pipe. I want to make my own n1 style (not replica) muffler for my turbo project. I'm gonna use 3" inside, split it to punch holes/dimple then reweld it. Then make end caps. From dp back will be 3". I'm kinda a novice/amteur at welding. I just wanna make some things that I'll actually use. I already made a catch can and modified eg rails to put del sol seats in my 88. Can't be too thin though, I'm using a small 110 mig

It's so much easier to just buy a used muffler on ebay. yeah I'm all about fabrication of my own ----, but I also do things the smart way.

I Have the cash to go buy new, I just wanna make something myself. I have ~7g's tied up in the car so far (80% of that money is motor and management). The only things that remained the same are crank, & trans. Everything else has been replaced/ upgraded.

if you have that much into the car, why throw on something ghetto like a homemade muffler?

I'm making the assumtion that noone could pull that kind of pipe out of their collection. I'm kinda looking to be pointed in the direction of a company that sells that size.

Cause it's something I made not just went out and bought, yet simple enough that I SHOULD not screw it up terribly.
