Hey guys so just recently my car is feeling weird, kinda like the cat is a little bit restricted, and the idle has went up about 200 than what it normally is. Also its a bit louder now.

So with that being said the exhaust is magnaflow with SLP muffler and its a true dual. The exhaust is about 8+ years old I think and its all rusted on the pipes and the cat and everything. So I'm going to change my exhaust completely because its sounding bad now and I just like new shiny stuff better.

So I have a 2.4 obviously, also has mp45 supercharger 2.6 pulley and intake.

I want to go 2.5" and I have my cat and muffler picked out. Total for them both is only a little over 100$

The cat is magnaflow hi flow. 2.5" inlet and outlet

The muffler is 2.5" inlet and outlet straight in side out

Now since my piping is rusted I just want to replace it all with the piping that will work which I believe is 2.5" since all of my other parts are 2.5" correct?

So do I take my cat and muffler to a shop and tell them to make me an exhaust system for my car using those and then 2.5" piping? Or do I buy the piping myself. Or will the shop just replace the sections of piping that is rusted?

If you can figure it out at this point I have no clue what to do if I go to a shop and ask about it so yeah..

Also, how does that set up sound?
