Im looking into getting a X-pipe and I was wondering if its a good idea to make your own. (I have a friend who is great at welding and has a pipe bender)

I guess my question is, is there a lot of technology and thought that goes into a X-pipe? or is it exactly what it sounds like... two pipes that come together and then break apart.

I know alot of muffler shops custom make their own Xpipes, so i wouldnt really see a problem doing it yourslef...

I guess it could be done...but why not just buy one? They aren't expensive...and i'll guarantee that its going to fit better!

You ever watch powerblock on spike? they made their own custom exhaust this weekend, it was nice, and an xpipe. But it was for a barracuda. I mean if you want to have the DIY experiance then why not. If its cheaper, sure. But if that doesnt matter, then you can buy one.

But hey it might be fun.

Just check out EBAY or craigslist. Yesterday in auction section of EBAY there was a Magnaflow tru-x pipe for $132. That was at 30 Min of the closing bid.

05GTXR, let me rephrase what i said about my friend, he completly rebuilt the back half of his trophy style truck with pipes that are all perfectly fitted and also have the ability to hold his spare tires for extra weight. hes really good. I guess if hes up to it we can try and build one.

Are you really saying that the purpose of those spare tires is to weigh down the rear of the truck?

Seriously.. :sorry

you could build one but if you want an off road one itll be less of a headache and cheaper to buy one.
