Default Cheapest Exhaust System?

Who makes the cheapest exhaust system around? When I say cheap I dont mean cheaply made either! Just trying to save a buck!

Might I recomend the PrecisionMuffler.com Axle back for a gentleman like your self!
Very nice and only 275.00 plus shipping and tax. It is the perfect bolt on to compliment the perfect vehicle, and the muffler is cheaper then anyone available.

Pick up this exaust. It is good quality and it has a nice deep sound. At cruising speed it quiets down and is practically silent. Two Thumbs Waaaaay Up There!

depends on weather you want the look or power. For both I'd say pickup a tip or muffler you like, resonator if you wish, then have it custom done. Then again I dunno how these cars respond to exhaust work.

Go with Precision Muffler and you won't be sorry. Gabe is a great guy to do business with too. We've had ours for a couple of weeks and the sound of the exhaust has gotten better and deeper as the days go by.

Not to take anything away from your shameless plugging Gabe ..........the Precsion Muffler setup is definitely a good way to go.

But.....if he's looking for super cheap DIY..........he's got that option too.
