Stainless steel , although i had a titanium back box on my civic which was real nice !

both? but you should probably use more stainless ones since more ppl get those and i assume the cf would cost more.

ss-iii splitters and 404 skirts areon. which means i need to update my sig.
I think you'd have a broader audience with stainless.

id say it depends on the price diff... but stainless would generally appeal to more people i thnk

i think both would be great. If it would be possible, off them both at different prices since i assume cf would cost more. But if you cant, i agree with everyone else, SS would probably appeal and sell to mroe people

Its Orville's Celica, i just drive it...
stainless steel with the burnt tip lol

i think that look is awsome
i guess you guys are right.... to try to offer both. but as of now i dont have the budget to buy both in a bulk order so i have to pick one or the other. it is looking like stainless is pulling ahead probably cause the cost of cf would be a little higher.
thanks to all of you for the comments!!!
anything else you guys can think of shoot the idea past me. i am always trying to meet the customers needs and wants.

I would go with stainless steel smile.gif
Any chance you can make it look like the sp2 DG?

Journal for my 3SGTE swapPosting and asking qns here for my 3SGTE swapRegular on ToyotaTuners, no long on TNLurker on celictech for my 3SGTE swapTrying to sell stuff on alltrac.netTime will tell that it is a mistake to replace the F-14 Tomcat with the F-18 Super Hornet as the carriers first line of defense.
celicazr, I can make it look any way you like... i am making a few 2.5" catback setups. if you wanted to buy your own muffler i could always make custom setups using whatever you want. so to answer your question "yes" i can make something for you similar to that.
Aaagogo, make sure you send me pics first of your harnesses so i can confirm that you are sending everything...you dont want to pay shipping 2 times!

You should make me a tip:(

dave, have you figured out how you plan on dealing with shipping? most of your customers will be spread out all over america.

i think the 2.5in catback is a great idea, since most members dont have many exhaust choices.

Make a tip?

I am just going to have to see what shipping will cost after i make the first 2.5" catback system? I am just going to have to redesign the flange location setup so it can be shipped easier and that is all i can do...

your work is awesome man ! I love my exhaust

I will return one day.
why not get a wholesale account with magnaflow?
then offer their line of mufflers i could see that being very beneficial...
plus much better muffler selection...although it might tack on a few days to production time

I agree that you will have a broader audience with the stainless, but I think it's a better business desision to go cf. I would at least try to offer both. There is a lot of poeple that want would like the stainless, myself included. But there are alot of poeple with money that like cf.

Live Free, Be Happy
After Owning my HKS Muffler I wont run anything but, Id like to pick up a 3" DP-back system tho w/ no muffler, once I get the v6 drop pipes figured out.

I Think the Stainless would appeal to more, either way tho you gotta figure your gonna be flooding this site with them.

I am a thief.do not buy anything from me.
ok, well it looks like stainless is the way to go at least for now.
