Wow, those are some GREAT prices...check out the carbon steel pricing! I could have afforded a 4 inch exhaust system if I'd known that :(

This is pretty funny. Some of you guys must be blind ;) Neither Summit, McMaster-Carr, RoadRaceEngineering, nor Magnumforceracing come close to the prices at Promical. What are you looking at??? Are you comparing carbon steel to stainless or what?

Thats what I'm thinking...the carbon steel pricing is about 60% of the lowest I've seen anywhere else.

I thought i was going crazy. That magnumracing site is like 3 times more than Promical.Is aluminum (6063) usually cheaper than stainless steel (T304)?? It is on promicals site. I thought carbon was cheapest, then stainless, and aluminum was most expensive.

:eek: Sorry, I tried to look at the pricing on the webpage listed in the first post, but it was all overlapped and messed up and I couldn't read the prices! I was just posting my previous source.

I had the same trouble nick... I might just order some 3" stainless and 2.5" aluminum from them though... I wonder how bad shipping will be... I don't see where to order anyway.
