Default Pipes?

I am going to get an exhaust soon. Flowmaster 40 series delta 3.00in single/2.25 dual. I was wondering where i should get the pipes, i want it to come out behind each tire. Should i just have a shop do it??? Also, if i can get pipes in a kit, is it okay to do the clamp on's, or better to get it welded?

Thanks

Definitely get it welded. Clamps are prone to eventual exhaust leaks. It's not that expensive to get a system put on. Just got a forty series put on today in fact for $100. The shops will have some aluminum pipe there to custom bend it and will be cheaper than a kit. That's what I recommend anyway.

Yes I agree, get it welded. I have seen way to many echo tips flopping up and down on trucks goin down the road.

Go to www.louscustomexhaust.com. They have a few locations throughout Mass. and they will custom bend your pipes to go anywhere you want.
