hehehe.. again Welcome to DieselBombers Pacecar! Which exhaust you thinking about? 4" downpipe back? 5" Straights? duals? I bet our vendors here can give you an awesome deal!

Where in the North West?

As far as exhaust systems go, Magnaflow and MBRP are our top choices and Diamond Eye is a close 3rd. We have systems from mid $200 range shipped. Let me know if we can help.

Oh I think all of the brands have their pros and cons. I went with an MBRP Turbo back 4" (its actually a downpipe back). Mine came with a muffler and a 5" Stainless tip. But, the muffler didnt last long and now its laying in the floor of my shop. Diamond Eye makes a true turbo back I believe..

The 4" is plenty big for applications up to around 600 rwhp I believe. But you will need a new turbo before that.

My MBRP system fit together perfectly. My wife and I installed it in about an hour in the driveway. THat was removing the old and installing the new total time.

I think the best advice would be to shop around, find a setup YOU like, and try to get the best deal.
