Custom Exhaust
JD, you're just speaking about a group buy for the exhaust after the headers / cats backwards, correct? I still need headers with sport cats, but would be interested in seeing a total solution.
Thanks,
Pat

Just so you're aware, M&M's headers with 200 cell HJS cats retail for $3800.00 !

JD, I'm going to stay 'subscribed' to see how you get on, but I'd have to say that due to a very long list of competing priorities for the car, I couldn't follow that up at that price right now.
I've got suspension, spacers, ud pulley, potentially motor mounts as well.
But it's a superb looking piece of kit.

Why go to Germany? Any competent fabricator/race shop could weld up that exhaust to your specifications.

Do you know of any ? I've scoured the internet looking for a custom exhaust fabricator who would be willing to fab a catback exhaust for a 986 boxster. So far, I've found only two. And, their prices are no less expensive than M&M's. M&M is the custom fabricator behind many of the big name tuners throughout Europe, to include the Porsche Super Cup, Carrera Cup Deutschland, ADAC GT Masters, ALMS / LMS, VLN / BF Goodrich, FIA GT and Rallye Meistershaft race series. They also produce the current Cup S, Cup R and RSR exhausts for Weissach. They're now setup in the USA.

Hmmm...I'm surprised they're that expensive. M&M probably has the Jig's, making it more of a production job. I guess the only hope would be to find a small shop or racer who would do it for a lesser fee. Have you tried posting a request on any racing oriented sites, SCCA, NASA, etc. ?

I've done more research than anything else. But, the only possibilities that I've been able to come up with are Lucas Fabrication, M&K Exhaust and Fabspeed. It seems like Fabspeed's pipe diameters won't work for me.
