Hey guys, I really need a full exhaust ASAP. I'm riding open downpipe right now. I need a new downpipe as well, because this one curves out to the side of the car. I also need a new lower intercooler pipe. Anyone know a place around here that can do this for me?

Thanks!

i wouldnt take that to a turbo place as they will probably over charge you. you might have better luck find a midas or some place that has a mandrel bend machine. its really all the same pipeing.

I wouldn't recommend driving the car if the charge pipes aren't hooked up.  You could overspeed the turbo and damage it.  If they just leak, then you probably won't be too bad--- just stay out of boost.  :wink:

I tried Meineke but they didn't have the machine to do 3" piping. I'll try Midas or something. The leak isn't bad at all, but there definitely is a power loss. I have a few options. I know a guy that sells stainless steal mid pipes for $240 shipped (from the cat to the muffler) but I'd still need a downpipe and muffler. I don't like canister type mufflers on CRX's because they weren't meant to be there, so I think I may just go with the 3" Thermal R&D catback. For the downpipe I have to go to a turbo shop, right?

I'll try a local muffler shop and if that doesn't work out, I found two places that can do them (according to friends). RJ's and NRG.
