Cost of downpipe fab.

[Mr. Burns]

Was recently quoted ~$500 from a fairly reputable exhaust shop to fabricate a custom downpipe from my turbo, to exhaust...

crushbends, aluminized steel.

this seems like a mad rippoff to me.

what have your solutions been, and or costs associate to for your dp on your m20b25 boost setup?

[nando]

what size pipe you running? 4"?

I'd watch ebay, you can get boxes of take-off mandrel bends from diesel exhaust manufacturers cheap. I got a whole box of them for $35. I used a couple, and traded the rest to my exhaust guy as partial payment.

THAT'S AN INSANE RIPOFF!!!

I had one done for an m42 setup and it was $60, i provided the flanges needed. Was aluminized mandrel bent.

I wouldnt spend more than $100 at an muffler and brake shop.

Ive made a few nice pie cut downpipes full stainless for $450. includes flanges.

I have a few recommendations of places near me, where are you located?
