We custom build mandrel y-pipes with any type of merge collector / cutout etc (most commonly the flowmaster one to a 4" cutout, then reduced to 3" after cutout)

+1 They did a 4" over the axle on mine that doesn't hit anywhere. Very, very happy with their work.

x 10!!!! These guys are THE shop to go to. I drove an hour away when I realized 2 local shops were too afraid to do a little custom work to get my exhaust to fit. The Rogers brothers are real cool peeps, they were excited to take on the challenge, and their work was top notch. BTW, I found out about them through word of mouth on this site by a couple ls1tech'ers.

"orange county muffler" in newport beach is the only shop in orange county that actually has a $100,000 mandrel bending machine.

Everyone else will just buy pre-bent pieces and weld them together.

I just had them do my exhaust and it came out awesome!

Jerl's Muffler Shop in Riverside. They've done two completely custom mandrel bent systems for my cars. Incredible work and amazing price.

Ah ok. I knew you were turbo'd, was just curious if you ran it all the way out back or not.

After months of hopelessly searching for an slp over the axle pipe to complete my catback I may have to go this route. Do they do stainless and can you pm what you paid?
