Hey, i was thinking about getting a custom dual exhaust with dual tips, like in this picture:



How much do you think it would cost? I am thinking just a straight pipe axle-back like the borla kit, but the borla kit + new tips would add up to about $450. I dont wanna spend that much.

Any feedback would be awesome!

 

It's difficult to estimate a price for an axle back exhaust (I'm assuming it's an axle back) like the above picture.
It's dependent on if you want chrome tips, polished stainelss, if everything's mandrel bent, etc.

But all in all, with stainless tips, I'd estimate around about $350. But that's rough. I recommend hitting up an exhaust shop. :D

BTW, the Borla kit looks reeeeeally nice. I was debating that kit, but I doubt i will. I'm planning on having a ton of stuff packed up where that system tucks.

 

looks good to me...good luck

 

Thanks, yeah, if it would be that much, plus the time to take it in and have it done, i might just get the borla kit with new tips.

Also, i was just going to get bolt-on tips after i cut off the ones that come with the setup, and use self-tapping screws to attach it to the pipe. Is there anything wrong with this? I know the weld-on tips are better to use, but my welding skills are pretty pathetic, and it would be extra hassle.

Is there any really important reason to use one type over the other?

 

I have a few ideas but i cant show anyone....hehe. I have to get the parts first...

Im sure a good exhaust place could make an exhaust for about 150(axel back. now the tips are a different story. they can be $$
-nick

 

mines was about 350 including the tips. local exhaust/rim shop in Hawaii called Rad Motor Sports hooked it up. tips were $100 each. the setup is from the resonator or "scuba" and on.

 

at first i was looking for dual tips like the ones on first post, this is the best ones I could find and ended up really liking it. good luck finding the right tips. post some pics once its done

 

^ still looks awesome - VIP, clean...

 

Speedelement / Tsudo Is redoing there Dual Exhaust so that it works with Dual Cut out Lip Kit's. Will be out very Soon.....

I know I have seen that style dual exhaust tip in a production exhaust, just cant remember who makes it.

 

DTM tips FTW... I will be going with a different style soon enough...

 

^^ What picture?

 

Sorry for the small pic... Its the best i could find quickly...

 

I was thinking about something like that as well. Im not sure I want to spend the $$ on some crazy tips from Japan. $300 for tips sounds a bit much.

 

$300 is way too much you can get those tips here for 10% of that...

 

gotta shell out the dough to be baller nick

 

the tips dont cost that its all the shipping and crap.

and max I know that

 

JEGS sells a variety of nice weld-on Magnaflow dual tips that are good quality and fairly priced:
