Default Catback-without muffler

I already have the muffler I want and was wondering if there is anywhere to get the mandrel bends of a catback without the muffler or tips. I made a dumb mistake and bought the muffler and had them put it in the stock I pipe and custom make a crappy bent pipe out the back lol. Any help is appreciated!

TSP Rumbler... $250 before shipping... Just run your muffler instead of the resonator it comes with...

Flowmaster sells just the 3" intermediate (y-pipe, over axle, to muffler) pipe, mandrel bent but aluminized

Stainless Works will sell a stainless version by itself...

I got the Flowmaster intermediate that he's talking about. Hooks right up to my TSP LTs. I'll be taking it off to put on my duals. It's been on the car for about 5 weeks. If you want it, shoot me a pm, maybe we can bargain.

For the price, you can not beat the TSP rumbler catback. I will have that exact catback with the TSP SS ORY for sell next week if you would be interested. Along with some Corsa Clone tips. 4" OD

The OP has a muffler for the traditional/factory location. The Rumbler wont help since its essentially a cheap Loud Mouth with a bullet in the trans tunnel

Search the classifieds for outlet pipes. I can recall seeing at least two different listings for brand new ones with hangers for dirt cheap. Walker/Dynomax sells 3" as well as Flowmaster - I assume you're talking about the fbody-specific 90deg bends that have hangers and line up with our bumpers

While true, the OP was also asking about getting mandrel bent pipes for a custom catback. For the price, getting a rumbler would be beneficial.

No I have a bullet style muffler in my I pipe so a Rumbler would be perfect, then I have a bunch of crappy bent pipe to get it to go out to both tips still. I will probably get a rumbler. I was wanting 3 inches the whole way though :/

I will have a Texas Speed Stainless Steel ORY and Rumbler catback for sell next week if you are interested. It currently has 6LE Corsa Clone tips on the cat back but I am not sure if they will go with the catback or not yet.
