He did my current full 3inch on my WRX for 180. He also made an incredible exhaust for my 914 a while back, which he had to keep overnight to work on. Only charged 300 (two mufflers and tons of excellent bends). Muffler Works is the name. I see everything from EVO's to C6 corvettes in there on a regular basis. That's probably too far for you, but it will give you a good idea of what stuff should cost.

You sure Mufflerworks does mandrel bends?
I'm pretty sure Mitch doesn't have a mandrel bending machine. It's all press bent (crush bent). But he's really cool. I could be wrong.
If you just need piping, try www.kteller.com and order your own.

Supposedly two shops in the Bay Area that can do mandrel bends.

Well i go to Golden Auto Muffler on Folsom between 5&6th and they do mandrel bends also but its $45per bend here a couple of shots. Ididn't get the mandrel bends but i like the quality for a muffler shop.
