If you have a test pipe you can get a catback, or maybe do an axle back? ive never dealt with exhausts before just giving an idea.

If you got all bigger piping just get you a nice brand name muffler and let menike weld it up and would be cheapest way to get a nice one.

Make your own exhaust it's the cheapest and best way to get what you want, that's what I did

You can buy a vibrant muffler with a tip already on it and weld it on or you can buy a used TurboXS for a good price.

You could get a megan catback for cheap. They go for under $400 all the time.

I have a borla catback that I want to sell. I make it to Teterboro frequently, so possibly no need to ship it. PM me if you are interested.
