    Rusted Exhaust: help

    So the other day my exhaust started to dragg on the highway. There is a crack in the pipe between the CAT and the resonater. The resonatoer was just hanging there tilted to one side dragging.

    So I went to the shop and aparently the whole exhaust is rusted. Everything. The muffler is good but thats about it. There was nothing for them to weld to for new pipes.

    So right now the only thing connected is from the CAT back and nothing can be welded to the cat. Would I be able to have a shop make me something? Or do i need to find a new exhaust from the cat back and then have a shop weld me some pipes to connect to the muffler?

    Would it be easy to convert to the 325i exhaust? How much should I be paying for everything, I dont want to get riped off!

    thanks in advance

          A good muffler shop should be able to make you whatever you want.

          Drive to Indy to get Will's "i" exhaust - you'll need everything from after the manifolds, but it will work well for you.

          I bet he'd let you have it for a tongue kiss and a reach-around.
