Custom Exhaust

Hey guys i was just wondering why all of you guys buy these like $500 exhaust systems when I get mine from this shop called speedway muffler, and they have all the mufflers: greddy, borla, magnaflow, etc. And they have the piping and customize it to your vehicle, so I dont see the difference i mean the piping is just pipe, but they use watever muffler you want and they do it for like $200, so my question is why dont more people do this?

because we would rather it be fabricated by the proffesionals so we know it is exactly what its suppose to be instead of some low down shop around the block.
Its not a low down shop, its actually been in a car magazine.

Then it's because we don't all have the benefit of shops that've made magazines in our local vicinity.

I didn't get mine for performance. I got it cause it sounds pretty cool and I bought it for cheap.

So is APC but I wouldn't be caught dead with an APC product on my car.

Is it crush bent or mandrel(sp)? Have you seen the shop's welding work before? What kind of metal do they use?
