I see ya'll know some peeps at Wolf and may could help me. I talked to some guy about getting a custom 3" exhaust done including DP, 3' carsound cat, straight back to my Ractive muffler. He gave me a rough estimate of about $200. What ya think? BTW, this is after the turbo is installed.

In my opinion, I wouldn't take it to Wolf. They don't really know what they are doing. Simple things like test pipes they mess up by welding up both sides, which causes the header or some other exhaust component to rip due to having no play in the system. They also installed a flex pipe on my friends car and welded on a 2" or 2.25" when he has a full 2.5" exhaust.

That sounds like a pretty good deal to me, as long as it includes the cat.

My bad, the carsound cat I bought separately. OB warned me about them and told me about Frank's problems with them which might be what wiggie is talkin about. OB said he knew a guy personally that could do better, so I might get OB to introduce me to his exhaust friend and go from there. I just need a custom 3" DP led into my 3" carsound cat then 3" piping all the way back to my ractive muffler.

The guy that was working in there that day said he could do 3" piping. :?:

Well who can I go to then? or, do I have to wait till I go back home and get it done at Jacksonville muffler again? :(

Not sure, I know I was interested in having a 3" exhaust done and he told me and my friend with a Supra turbo who needed a 3" exhaust that he could not bend 3" pipe

It all depends on how much you want to spend and the performance you want out of it
