Cam'ron Posted April 13, 2006 Report Posted April 13, 2006 After realizing that the exhaust that was put on my car wasnt a true magnaflow 3" catback, (wasnt too dissapointed it still sounds great) i went back to my buddies shop and i was talking to him about switching to duals cause when i get my spoiler a single exhaust just wont look right. We decided on a saturday job for now i might just take it in through the week, and we are going to Y the exhaust where it swerves to the middle to clear for suspension travel add the left tailpipe and install 2 new MAGNAFLOW, real ones this time mufflers and 2 new tips probably the same as what i have now the 3" round rolled edge 24" long bohemoths plus he is gonna do the u-bend delete for me as well... he is charging me 200 bucks for all of it :shock: probably gonna do this next week or possibly this weekend if i can get in, i will post some pics and some clips of how she sounds when it is done and some before clips incase you forgot Quote
birdman Posted April 13, 2006 Report Posted April 13, 2006 lucky i want new exhaust. should sound real nice when you get it done and a hellova deal too. wheres my deal someday ill get me a good one. Quote
Cam'ron Posted April 13, 2006 Author Report Posted April 13, 2006 not nearly as good a deal as the first time where i paid 60 bucks for the tip and the rest was free but i was looking at the prices today and the muflers i think clay was talkin about retailed at over 130 each USD... if we were on the same page as to the model, and the tips retail at 85 dollars each in his shop so yeah it is one hell of a deal Quote
Cam'ron Posted April 13, 2006 Author Report Posted April 13, 2006 thats what i am thinkin... they have some new decals for the shop i might put one on if they look ok and they got rid of the green from the old one, just to show my appreciation Quote
chadz34 Posted April 13, 2006 Report Posted April 13, 2006 Your Monte would look TIGHT with dual exhaust, just find some nice tips. Quote

Cam'ron Posted April 13, 2006 Author Report Posted April 13, 2006 i chose them cause they are actually kinda close to the factory look on the SS although these have a 15* slant cut on the rolled edge other option was the double wall ones but they were all short (the ones he had in stock) so the modification to get them out to the bumper would have been alot more Quote
DiscoStudd Posted April 13, 2006 Report Posted April 13, 2006 Are you getting Stainless tubing with that setup? Getting it Mandrel bent as well? Quote
Cam'ron Posted April 15, 2006 Author Report Posted April 15, 2006 no stainless for now but it is mandrel bent. down the road i might go full stainless system but that will be when and if i can find headers[br]Posted on: April 13, 2006, 07:22:48 PM_________________________________________________got out and got my tip cleaned up so you get a better idea of how it should look... booked it in for wednesday for the upgrade Quote
