Guys, Norman of fantasy fabricarionsb in concord NH  built me one out of mild
steel and it is the finest setup I have ever seen on any car. Looks better
than some of the 2000$ systems I have seen. I use no cat, a dynaflow center
and a new stainless rear muffler from Thermo tec. I got the thermo tec for
349$ (the finest piece I have ever seen and all parts are replaceable with
any size in or out single in dual out any combo of sizes. I have a total of
850 $ in this and it includes everything. It was not mandrel bent. You can
get really good value from a good shop and the right components. This is a
very high flow system yet is not boomy and sounds aggresive at full chat but
not loud around town. Every car is different and to me the ultimate setup is
tailored to your car. That said the Stromun? systems are pertty good but IMO
a bit pricey if you have a local craftsman.
