I believe techtonics is still around in Oregon
They might be worth talking to, unless you are set on a local shop to do the work

How do you get a custom exhaust bent for a Caddy. I have a pipe that is
flanged to the turbo downpipe and then u-bolted to the muffler. On the back
side of the muffler there used to be a tailpipe that ended just past the
rear axle. The tailpipe has rotted off and the muffler has small holes,
I'd
like to replace the whole system but it is non-stock. Will any muffler
shops
custom bend an exhaust system if they have most of the existing system to
use for a pattern? It seems like I've run into problems over non-stock
systems in the past but the diesel Caddy is a pre-emission control vehicle.
If you want the best performance from it. Have them start at the turbo,
put in a flex,
ball and socket or something, somewhere between the steering rack and
shifter, and
go 2 1/2" all the way. Most shops can do this from scratch, no problem.
Try and find
one that will use a heavier gauge metal rather than just the cheapest they
can. We
have a local shop that's great. :-)
