Exhaust Kit

Exhaust Kit
Yeah you read it... and its a slightly over beaten topic but I dont care...
Anyways, I have a hole in my current system at the one hanger of the tailpipe. I am waiting back on some numbers from a couple places locally, but if they arent what I think the should be I am thinking about going for a kit. I have already had some numbers come in and one place wanted $350 for a standard steel piping, single exit and I was supplying the muffler which is recockulous... beings I only paid $150-175 back in my hometown which is 3.5 hrs from here. So my question is to anyone who has installed a kit, whats your thoughts, opinions, issues you experienced, anything dealing with your install etc? Btw if I go with a kit, I may be jumping ship from what I am currently running, but I'll leave it a secret for now until I figure if I am going to a kit or not... Thanks guys

You know my story...$200 kit off ebay, single in/dual out FM 40 series that I HATED. Swapped it out with a magnaflow. Added stainless steel tips and had everything welded after I installed it. Total into my exhaust at this point is @$600. I should have done some research on here first...lol...coulda had a nice borla or gibson system for that kind of money.

lol yeah I know... I am kinda pissed off right now. These places around her def. rip people off... especially after that first quote. I am half tempted to cut the bitch off and dump the exhaust right in front of the rear axle, downward of course...

Here's what I did, so far so good. I'm going to get it welded soon, but the clamps are doing just fine.
$13 - worth of clamps
$7 - 18" connector pipe to extend muffer further back.
$50 - New intermediate pipe, deletes resonator

$31 - New muffler, flowmaster copy.

$75 - Resonator deleting tail-pipe.
