Unhappy Where to get 5" exhaust

I'm wondering if there's anywhere I can get mild steel or aluminized steel bends. Maybe even a cheap 5" tailpipe I can modify or something. I don't really want to buy a whole 5" diesel catback either, because they're big $$$ and I don't need that much tubing.

I've looked all over and I've found some 14ga bends but I'd prefer 16ga. I found one place, but they want like $80 per bend for aluminized steel.

Any ideas?

I think Summit makes a 5" aluminized kit for not to much money. I looked online, but couldn't find it, but I'm pretty sure I've seen it in the catalog. You don't need anything that big anyways,

It's a five inch Granatelli Exhaust System, they also just have the five inch pipes, aluminized for the whole system, and polished stainless steel for the tips. Hopefully this can be somewhat helpful.

I checked out the link that you sent me and they sell a 5" madrel 90* bend, but it too is $80. It's made by Flowmaster and it's 16ga aluminized. I found some mild steel 5" bends that are 14ga for only $27, but I don't like the fact of the extra weight 14ga carries.

Nobody seems to make just a cheap universal 5" tailpipe kit. I see 4" ones, but not 5". To get a 5" I'd have to buy a whole turbo back setup with a muffler and crap. I might have to just bite the bullet and spend the $80 a bend.

or

www.warpspeedperformance.com

Both cheap and good quality. I had one of the warpspeed duramax kits and it had enough pipe and bends to build a 4" catback exhaust for my buddies 04' ECSB Silvy and a 4" turboback for my old RCLB Cummins. That kit was only like $325 shipped with a muffler.

another option is to check with the big rig repair shops in your area, they'll either have it in stock or can tell you where to get it.
