Default Pre Fab X or H Pipes

Hey everyone, I'm looking to put a true dual system into my 2000 Formula.
However, I dont have the money to afford a custom X or H pipe. I live in California, so i do need the system to be catted.

I was just wondering if anyone recommended any pre fabricated catted X or H Pipes...

Preferably Stainless systems

the only pre fab duals that i know of that are stainless is bassani and they dont include cats. add cats to it and it is going to be quite pricey. just tryin to help you out.

if you cant afford a custom system most likely you cant afford a stainless system.. we are talking a huge price jump from aluminized and stainless systems. and since you live in cali i dont think you realy have an issue with road salt and other things that would corrode your exhaust.

IMO look at thunder racings website for true dual set ups, that or go to a local shop... bringing them mufflers it should end up being around $300

how much would a custom aluminized setup up come out to be?
Because i saw a guy who had a custom stainless one and people were saying it must have been 5K, which is nuts
