Default Off road H-Pipe fabrication

does anyone know of a shop in the Chicago land area or so that can make me an off road H-pipe from stock header down to catback? I'm also willing to go to WI if needed.

just buy an already built one. its not going to be easy for people to bend the pipes at shops. your better off buying one premade.

There is a place in Waukesha that may do it. I should be driving by it on Wednesday and get a name and number for you.

I was going to go with GT take offs and stock headers which are both 2.25 inches and MAC's H-pipe is 2.5 inches. Will the two match up or will the seal suck and I should find a 2.25 inch H-pipe?

Herman's Muffler Service in Waukesha (262) 446-2280.

He even has a dyno in there and does custom exhaust as well.

Cool, Thanks for the info. I think I'll give him a call... Now that is

Update, He want 150 to do the work and install it. I figure I am saving a bit from what MAC wants for it and I can't put in on myself cuz the Cat back is going to need some welding to get in together. I think I'll go with the shop. Thank you Thank you

just remember, most shops do not do mandrel bending.

If any at all.

Where did you shop for the mac? all the books I have list them between $109 and$149. go to ebay and search. Thats where I found the one I got. it's a mac2 1/2, and it was only $86 . hard to beat ebay.
