As some of you may know, i created my own 3" stainless steel exhaust. In addition i made 3 bolt exhaust flanges out of stainless steel that i modeled off of a vibrant performance 3 bolt flange. I recently aquired a plasma cutter, which makes producing these flanges much faster. The quality of steel im using is high and worked great with my set up, but i was disappointed to see how much vibrant wanted for their flange. They charge 26.95 per flange...
While my quality may not be as pristine we all need to realize that this is indeed an exhaust flange that will see abuse, and will never been seen by anyone... Here is my estimated price list: Stainless: 3" 3 bolt $17.00 shipped 2.5" 3 bolt $16.50 shipped 3" 2 bolt $17.00 shipped 2.5" 2 bolt $16.50 shipped Steel: 3" 3 bolt $15.00 shipped 2.5" 3 bolt $14.50 shipped 3" 2 bolt $15.00 shipped 2.5" 2 bolt $14.50 shipped Let me know what you think! --------------------  |

QUOTE (bsamps4 @ Oct 8, 2012 - 10:02 PM)  Yup i tigged it. Bought the angles and corners from www.siliconeintakes.com. hmm..... I'm assuming even if I had a shop make a custom exhaust, they would need "flanges" anyway? I mean, I'm getting a custom exhaust, I have to. Going with 2.5" from the cat back. Don't know if I'll put in a highflow cat, keep the beams cat, cut the cat out... but in either way, I would need several of these I think... If a shop makes one, do you know if they buy flanges or make their own? I haven't even asked a shop yet, so this is really my first thoughts about exhaust... --------------------  |
