dude. do you plan on installing this yourself? if not then you dont need any links to anything. go to local exhaust shop and tell them what you want. i recommend you get flowmaster 40 series muffler and if u want, get a new pipe from the cat-back. 2.25" or 2.5" if they will do it.

Like Jackal said, go to an exhaust shop and get one custom made and have them start from the stock manifolds. Use 2.5" piping the whole way. From the manifolds, go into a Magnaflow high flow cat, then into a straight through resonator, and then a straight through mufffler. Don't use a chambered muffler like Flowmaster...yeah they sound nice, and they flow better than stock, but straight through, perforated core mufflers flow better than chambered. Try Magnaflow or Vibrant Performance for good quality resonators and mufflers.

I was gonna install this exhaust with my dad.....he has done exhaust to his trucks, he knows what hes doing. i wanted to buy a complete exhaust system from somewhere, cause i just dont trust shops around here with my car. so if anyone knows of any websites that sell a complete exhaust system please help me out here.

ok one more question so i can get my plans moving here within the next month.

the only engine mods im gonna be doing are spark plugs and wires and a WAI, now with those, would you guys say a 2.5" pipe is too big and to go with a 2.25" or is 2.5" perfectly fine going into a magnaflow muffler?

SLP sounds flippin sweeeeeeeeT! Have that on my V6 and love it. I went to an exhaust shop and had a fart can put on and it sounded like a damn pickemup truck. Went to SLP and fell in love. Easy to install, just cut off old and put up new.

jackal2000 · 08-16-2006, 09:59 AM

since your mods are minimal, its a toss up really.

Satsuriku · 08-16-2006, 10:16 AM

think you can list any possible advantages and disadvantages to each size?

billytheman1188 · 08-16-2006, 03:56 PM

Does anybody know any sites where i could get a complete exhaust system!?

Will that fit the 3.4 alero!????? i hope so, i mean this is all i could find on google........

Satsuriku · 08-16-2006, 04:24 PM

dude your just better off getting it custom made at a shop, MUCH cheaper and from what i understand from the research ive done, theres very little difference in a custom one from a shop and the SLP you linked

billytheman1188 · 08-16-2006, 04:34 PM

From what i have seen ive seen people say not to get it done at local shops.....people have said that the ones u order can last longer than the ones u can get custom done at a shop............but my question is....will that exhaust fit my car?????

jackal2000 · 08-16-2006, 04:36 PM

yes it will. go waste your money on it. the shipping is 50 bucks roughly so after taxes you will have paid for 2 custom setups. real smart IMO.

better yet, im sure you could piece an exhaust together even cheaper since you want to do it yourself by going to lowes or home depot and buying the pipe there....

Satsuriku · 08-16-2006, 04:56 PM

hey guys, quick question: ive been looking into a high flow cat (from magnaflow) and i go there website and i cant even find a damn price for it!!! how much would one of them cost (even a rough estimate)?

jackal2000 · 08-16-2006, 04:59 PM

100 bucks for the universal, 150 for the direct fit

Satsuriku · 08-16-2006, 05:33 PM
