Just checking to see if there is any interest in getting a professionally designed exhaust system? A couple of local engineers have expressed interest in doing an exhaust system for late model Protege's '01+ and P5's. The system would be comprised of higest quality in both, materials and workmanship. The system would use 2.5" mandrel bent 304 stainless steel tubing, Burns muffler, and all the necessary flanges and gaskets. There would also be an option to use a different kind of muffler should someone want to use something else.

For reference, there is a red, late-model, Toyota Supra w/o a spoiler here in the city that is running a Burns muffler, as well as a couple of 10-sec Talons. :) Also, these are the same individuals that recently did my intercooler pipes for my Mazdaspeed.

I have attached a link to Burns mufflers, as well as to my intercooler pipes in the 'progess' stage.

I have nothing to gain from this, I'm just pleased to let others know that there are some professional guys in the city that use quality materials and have appreciation for detail, making sure the job is done right the first time! :)

Let me know what you think.

Cheers.

there are already numerous full exhausts for the proteges. Burns Stainless is first class and their products are great but they are VERY pricey. I know because I use their transitions and reducers in some of my turbo-ford stuff.

I would be interested in a full turbo back exhaust. Let me know once you get yours done.

There are other options available, but personally I prefer to buy local and to get a chance to really see and hear what you are getting before I dish out the cash.

Yes, I know there are multiple exhausts, however, having these guys do my exhaust is essentially the same thing as buying an exhaust from those new and emergent smaller companies. And I get to use my muffler of choice. :)

Phil, I'll let you know when I get it done. If we get a few guys interested, I'm sure we can work out some sort of group-buy for the local guys. I'd rather see everyone with a quality product, than not. I'm sure you understand, non? :)

Cheers.
