Dropped the custom section of pipe off at the powder coating shop today to have it done satin black. Had the pipe made to route the exhaust out behind the right mudflap, tip welded on, and the powder coat will get rid of the bling (This guy hates chrome). should be about 10 days max till I have it back and welded on.

Here is a pic of the pipe before powder coating

I will post more once I get it back from the shop and some more of it installed.

Esteban how are you liking your new magnaflow muffler versus the the 18inch you had before? Is the new one the 22inch? Thanks.

That's the way to have it done! Some 4th Gen guys had it customized to come out behind the rear wheel also and said it all but eliminated the exhaust in the cabin smell.

That's probably next up on my mod list too as I have a Magnaflow muffler sitting out in my garage waiting to replace the Flowmaster when I find the time.Easy job for any reputable muffler shop.

I like the new one a lot better. It's only slightly louder than the stock one at idle/cruising speeds but is more throaty when I get on it. I went with a different size all together, it a 5x11 oval 24in long.

I'm looking forward to seeing how the powder coating turns out and how it holds up under the heat of the exhaust.

From what I've gathered it shouldn't be above 225 degrees max by the time it gets to that section of pipe. The powder coating shop said that there would be no problems with it melting or burning. We shall see.

Who built that section? Is it bolt on or is it just for your custom magnaflow exhaust? It looks awesome.

One of the guys that works at a small welding shop down the street did the fab work for me. It's just a magnaflow tip welded onto 2.5 in exhaust pipe, with the hangar put on the inside so it won't be visible once installed.
 
Just got the call from the powder coating shop that the piece is ready for pickup! Headed straight there after work and will post some pics tonight of the finished product. Now just to set up a time to have it welded on.... Sooner rather than later!
 
Sorry for the less than stellar picture quality but the camera is broken so the phone had to do. It turned out very nice and i cannot wait to have it welded on. Have an appointment with the shop on friday afternoon.

And you can still see the magnaflow imprint through the coating, nice touch.

The new "like" button is a good touch on the forum, but I really wish there was a "want" button! I'd be pushing that a lot! That looks great!
