    Where to buy 3" exhaust pipe and bends

    The title pretty much says it all. Where is the best place to buy bends and pipe from. What was the name of the company that sold on here? I thought it was racing solutions, but I couldn't find their site earlier.

    Strait can be had in 8 ft sections at a muffler shop. We sell it pretty cheap.

    Most of the pieces I've been looking at for my Holset install have been cheaper.

    Re: Where to buy 3" exhaust pipe and bends

    This will be going on my Shadow so I'm just looking for something which will hold up for a long time, but not necessarily for the rest of my life. It doesn't have to look pretty either.

    Should I buy SS409 or SS304?

    Re: Where to buy 3" exhaust pipe and bends

    I like the ss 409 for exhaust. I've used it on a couple of different turbo applications with no issues. I've used both a mig and a tig to weld it. you do need to back purge if you are tig welding it.

    409 is generally cheaper, but will eventually rust (not nearly as fast as aluminized though). 304 will likely outlast the car. Most automotive exhaust systems today are made of 409.

    For aluminized 3 inch 90, MBS price is $9.95
    Columbia river is $13.75
    MBS shipping for me was more than half price of CR.

    We don't try to be the cheapest, we just try to ship the fastest with with the largest inventory anywhere. This year we are closing in on stocking 300,000 bends. I don't know of anyone anywhere that is within even 10% of us.
