it basically depends on what you want to do exactly and they"ll give ya a quote. i can imagine you're lookin somewhere in the $600-$800 range with all the parts labor since it'll be a 1 off system. unless they produce a kit for that car.

i had them do the very first cat back i had on my WS.6 9 years ago. the system was $550 or something at the time and installation was $75 or $100 (cant remember exactly right now) which they ended up waiving cause of a shipping issue i had with Speedinc. at the time....they ended up installing it for free for me.

I had them do 3-1/2" (mandrel bent) from the headers all the way back up over the axle, dump just behind the rear tires on my 1970 Nova. Its tucked up nice and neat, has a balance tube and is done in three pieces. From the headers to just in front he axle is one piece and then each tail pipe is another piece. The joints between the pieces are 3bolt flange and do not leak at all. This allows me to get the center section of the exhaust completely out of the way when doing the clutch. I supplied Borla XR-1 (16" oval case) mufflers and they charged me $550 to build and install the system about 4 years ago. They do excellent work and treat the cars right.

I wouldn't hesitate to have them do the work.

Denny does great work. I had a custom dual system made for my TBSS. Not true dual, but single in dual out and he had to bend then cut the rear valence and make sure the turn ended up where it needed to on the valence. If I wasn't at work I would post pictures for you. Muffler, tips and work for 550. I know of a guy that travels from NC to have his exhaust work done at Mufflex...

I'll bump this thread for an update and some input.

I had them make me a custom header back system. Was around $900 for parts and labor. Went back and got a section put in and my SFC's welded in. Awesome guys to deal with.

I have mixed experiences with them. The last work I had them do was on my truck and that wasn't very good.

-They did the cutout on my car in 2003 adn that was only 40 bucks which I thought was very good.

-I asked them if they could do the dual exhaust but they wouldn't They wanted me to buy their 4" system instead. I was a little soured by that.

-In 2006 I had them redo the back half of my truck exhaust. I bought the parts - X pipe, mufflers and had most of the stainless pipe and bends. They told me to come down before with the parts so they could see the truck and see if the mufflers would fit. I'm not an idiot and ddin't just pick out parts (I've done this crap before just couldn't weld it at the time). I went down (about 50 miles) and after waiting a half hour there, Denny peeked under for about 5 sec and said no problem. I was a little annoyed at the wasted trip.

-I came down the following week on a Sat for an 8AM appt, waited till 10 and at 1230 they told me they ran out of stainess wire. Since they were closing they said it would have to wait and made a temp. bracket for it. They apologized and said they would take care of me, hook my up and what not.

-I came down the next week for them to finish. Got there again at 8AM. they made me wait till 10AM and then finished the job by 1230 again. He then hands me a bill of 800 bux. I had to remind him that they used my piping and made me make 3 trips down there for this and he only offered to knock off a 100 bux. The tips came out properly aligned but the welds on the rest of the exhaust are really MIGed sloppy.

For that price I expected alot more. Never again with those guys.
