a while back i got quotes from a few places.
was about 4500 for mild steel 76mm mandrel, and 6 grand for SS, at most places.

And that is why I am making my own SS full exhaust using weld in bends... which I am getting from my connection in the dairy industry... they only use stainless steel.

very good system from what i've heard.
one of our members had a full system, and another had a few backboxes.
no-one complained!
the local dealer is in edenvale.
