Check advanced or auto zone...see what they price em for, then find your local muffler/exhaust shop, or mechanic, and see what they go for there. Sometimes it can be cheaper to just go straight to a mechanic, they can get parts cheaper than most people sometimes. So it may be easier for you to do it there. Where are you from anyways?

Should run you about $70 to get it welded on, unless you're like me. They had to custom cut a small piece of downpipe and weld that on as well, so it ended up costing me $130ish. Also, consider outlet diameter when choosing. 3" will be high pitched, where as 4" and 5" should give you a low tone (someone correct me if I'm wrong).

google magnaflow, go to their site, order it from them. They come w/stickers and a hat and shit, so judging from where you want your car to be, stickers would be a good start as well.

But really, magnaflow isn't too bad. I <3 their catalytic converters made by "carsound" but w/e

I say save your money....
Buy a full catback.

500 bucks is not alot when you consider the return you can get for it. Selling a greddy SP2 will be easy, and you will get alot back versus selling a custom pieced together ebay exhaust. Same goes if the car came with it.

Not to mention the sound from a nambrand catback/turbo back is a good way to brag.
