Spent about $200 today, $120 yesterday. So about $320 for (what I hope is) everything I'll need to do my exhaust. I spent all afternoon on evening piecing together and welding the tailpipe and the arch that goes over the rear axle (from mandrel bends). Tomorrow will be the muffler and the pipe up to the downpipe. Then the downpipe itself (it'll be complicated, I'll post pics of this part). I have really impressed myself with my welding. It looks real good. Again, I will post pics of the progress. I hope to finish by tomorrow afternoon.
When I put the new exhaust and the old exhaust next to eachother, the difference is crazy. Not only it the stock exhaust much smaller, it is all crimped and kinked up in the bends. I'm sure I will notice a HUGE difference with the new exhaust, both in power, spool up, and sound.
Oh yeah, the Magnaflow muffler is impressive. You can see right through it! Light too.

If I happen on some more money during my swap, I'll be making a new downpipe (3") and getting a new cat (also 3"). After that I'll pipe the rest of the system in 3" (its 2.5" from the cat back right now).
