I think it would be cheaper to just get the Ebay muffler and get custom cat-back.

This is just a guestiment on how much its gonna cost.
Ebay muffler $70 shipped
Custom cat-back $100 for 2.5" cat-back w/removed resinator and 2nd cat

GReddy cat-back $300-400 Not really sure about the exact price.

you are right about the price. but that setup would have no backpressure at all . so the 70 dollar muffler and a 50 cat ...so probably 180 installed ..maybe ...hopefully. I am just thinking that greddy is tuned for this car and I think they use mandrel bends and ceramic coating. ...I just dont want to spend the money on either one and then be SOL. I did custom exhaust on my aurora and made it sound like a damn mustang .

I just used a flathead screwdriver and a hammer to pound the ring off with.
I didn't use the screws, just let the pearch hold it.

I have the greddy and got it for $400 shipped and nothing you can make yourself sounds like it and it looks better thaan the universal mufler that nearly everyone has. I think the greddy is worth the money, look around online you can prob get it for $350 without shipment or less maybe
