GTA exhaust system
Alright guys needing some help here....
I live in Toronto, Canada and am in the process of buying a new exhaust system. What I need from you guys is a favourable shop you guys have been too or can direct me too. Also, I need pricing. What could I get thats not overly expensive but doesn't cut the performance? I was thinking of getting 3" mandrel pipes, hiflow cat, flowmaster muffler (open to different brands), cutout and some nice dual tips. I have a guy that would sell me some blackjack headers but they don't have the A.I.R tubes. Could I cut the tubes off my stock manifolds and just weld them to the headers? They don't do much anyway right besides providing air or heat to the cat? Correct me if I'm wrong. How much do cutouts cost? (canadian prices) and where could I get one around here? Has anyone in my area heard of a place called Pipes? I've been told 3" would kill my flow or power. I'm not too worried about that considering it's only a 305 but I might as well get something I can transfer over to a 350 right? Anyway...if you guys have anything to add please feel free to shoot your opinions at me. This is going to be done VERY SOON as I need the car for the up coming May 24 weekend. Thanks!
PS. How much do Edelbrock TES Headers with y-pipe cost? (or just headers)

If you haven't already, you might try posting this on your regional forum.
FWIW, 3" won't "kill" flow. It will help your engine breathe better, which it will appreciated. And, TES only come (new, anyway) with a y-pipe.
If I had it to do over, I'd go for Hedman 68491 for dual cats, and do the dual cat thing.
