So due to the snow i've garaged my car for the winter and its time for me to start getting to work on it, but of course the exhaust is the first on the list and I was looking for some recommendations for exhaust shops. I live near boulder/broomfield and would like to not travel too far for the shop. If anyone knows of any good shops in my area it would be greatly appreciated, and if it is known about what it would cost to get a 3" exhaust for a 2g fwd.

Do you know about how much they would charge?

Exhaust pros on huron if you don't mind press bent tubing. I would call and ask for shaun. He is usually the cheapest and does real good work.

I was always wondering about how much press bending really affects the flow for the exhaust. Is it really worth the money to get mandrel bent tubing?

Pressbent sucks- and it affects exhaust flow a lot, which is why we get rid of it.

Doesn't sound quite like anything out there.

Great quality and all stainless construction.

They're a little hard to find and buy, but worth it in my opinion.

We're in Littleton and we have an in-house mandrel bender. Custom-bent single cat-backs are typically in the $450 range, less if you have your own muffler and bring it in, more if you want SS. We can also do cat pipes and down tubes. It's definitely less expensive to go online-order but if you're looking for local or custom, we can handle it.

Does anyone have a picture of how the megan exhaust looks out the back on a gst?

For your reference, here is a picture of the work that Lakewood muffler did. They angled it exactly how I wanted it and it is perfectly bent under the car. I recommend them every time now..
