Exhaust Shop
I need to get my dp finished and get a custom exhaust put on my car. I was wondering if anyone had any suggestions on good shops around richmond. I'd like to price out a mandrel bent exhaust as well as "crush" bent, if there are any shops around the area that do mandrel. thanks in advance.

Re: Exhaust Shop
For intakes, the mandrel bends help. For 3" exhaust, mandrel bends aren't going to do much and few places can handle 3" piping. Mine was done at Hendrick's shop northside, no mandrel bends in the exhaust for me. Call ahead and make sure they have enough as it is not a commonly asked for size.

Re: Exhaust Shop
Mandrel bending equipment is REALLY expensive, as far as I know no one in the area has it. Roy Hendrick's shop is awesome, they did some 3" exhaust work on a turbo car I had. Also Economy Muffler & Tailpipe in the Ashland Airpark does SWEET aftermarket work, they work on alot of racecars. Both Hendick's and Economy are super friendly too
