cant you rent them from a place like shucks? or how much is one?

After you take it off, see if you can sand down the undercarriage a little and apply some undercoat so it wont rust. It'll take some time, but it will be worth it. Just make sure you take your time doing the job, cause if you rush, bad things will happen.
ya iv always have wanted to do the undercarige but im not sure if it would be a real pain since i would have to use jackstands.

Re: were to find cheap exhuast

You could probably get one from a Home Depot rental store. Not sure if you have one of them around you, but I am sure you would be able to find a place that rents them out. Sure undercoat will be a pain in the ***, especially on stands. But, in the long run, it'll be worth it. From the sanding, if needed, the priming, and then the actual undercoat. It'll be a bitch for sure, but look at in the long run. After you do your exhaust and undercoat, you really wouldnt have to worry about underneath the car for quite a while.

Re: were to find cheap exhuast

well I'd love to buy from bandit exhaust, but they do not ship free to Canada. If I were to have it shipped here between shipping and duty, the price will be quite close. I made an offer of 320.00 and they replied saying their price is 320.18
if I were in the states this would be my place to shop.

Re: were to find cheap exhuast

Yeah, I just bought my cat from Bandit. Great place. One thing you could do for the shipping would be to ship it to a city that is close to the Canada border, then have them ship it out of their to your house in Canada. I'm not sure how its done, but I remember reading about someone that did it for their shipping method.

Re: were to find cheap exhuast

My buddy had Hooker 2055's with the stock black paint. His header skin temps were around 1200*F. I had my 2055's coated inside AND out including the y-pipe with a 1700* inside and out coating. I will be using my buddies Temp gun to see the difference in temps with coated inside and out vs stock black paint (which is for protection and is not hi-temp). I was told skin temps should drop about 3))*F, which is a significant reduction in under hood temps.

Coating inside the header improves exhaust velocity I think it is, for better flow and more power, about .00001% more power, but its there
