Looking to get rid of my resonator.

I have seen Magnaflow X pipes on ebay for a decent price.

But a forum member mentioned that he just had one made at a local muffler shop.

Any advice appreciated!

Try www.drgas.com I remember a few people looking here for one. Mine was also made at the muffler shop. Couldn't be happier!

I would imagine Magnaflow would "MAYBE" be a little more calculated with research studies before their fabrication over a muffler shop wleding two pipes but really don't know for sure!!!!

I might even depend on the actual muffler shop fabricating the X-Pipe.

Hell, I don't know.... Someone please chime in, I'm looking for one too!!!!!!!

Kevin, there's an exhaust shop down on main street that did mine. The guy fabricated my x-pipe and made it adapt to my headers for $100. It would probably cost you even less if it already mates to your headers.

Is it perfectly engineered? Probably not. Does it look as good as some of the other units out there, no. Does it work, well let me just say I'm not giving up any horsepower to my exhaust. I certainly couldn't beat the price anywhere.

There is a guy on ebay selling I think it is either dynomax or magnaflow x-pipes for like $60.


EDIT: its $75

Dr. Gas makes great X pipes, but you would need to supply him with measurements for what you want. He has my CAD drawing for a B&B system X pipe replacement. Ask for Neal at Dr. Gas.

that magnaflow unit on ebay rocks. it is much better than the standard 2 bends welded together x pipe. it is a chambered style.

neil at dr.gas is definately the man to talk to. With only a few measurements of length and distance between pipes cl to cl, they made it perfect.

Went ahead and bought one, I agree it looks like a nice piece.

We'll see!

You might still want to look at main street to install it for ya. Unless you know somebody who can weld it up for free, you can't beat their price. If you talk real nice to Mr. Coulter he might can do it for you cheaper.

I like my Magnaflow x-pipe. Seems to be a quality piece.

I bought a Magnaflow on ebay last winter. Easy install.

Thanks Nathan, I will definitely need someone to install it. I'll give those guys a call. I've also had good luck with Mark's across from Greenwood high school.

Skip the X pipe, cut out the front mufflers, then install a Magnaflow a 5" x 8" Oval Dual/Dual Stainless Steel Universal Muffler, p/n 14468, in its place. This muffler provides a Tru-X Perforated Core, i.e. an internal X pipe. From the muffler, just run a pair of open tubes to the rear of the car. That's what I did, and the whole thing cost about $200. Plus it has a much more pleasant sound than Flowmasters.
