[DeTomaso] my suggestion for a cheap noisy exhaust system you can do at home if you MIG weld

[Dave Londry]

That's what I needed to hear about Justin.
I need to retire my ANSAs and I have a fancy set of borla bodies.
So, I need  a pair of 2.5" intermediates from a 3" collector flange, in 
stainless
and a pair of tips.
What were the part numbers and costs?

tks

Lots of welding, not lots of money, sounds super racey loud (which is what I wanted), didnt cost too much, and great sense of satisfaction doing it myself for less money.  Not ideally tuned for every last horsepower, but my stock cubic inch cleveland with CHI intake and heads is ridiculously fast as is, probably not too far off from my 08 500hp corvette.   One of the few pantera projects I have done which actually worked the first time.  (although the header collector gaskets blew out twice.  dont use fancy graphite ones.  just use old fashioned copper/metal gaskets in my opinion.)    Justin
