Need to replace my exhaust system

I have a 91 SE Max and I have a hole in my flex pipe and a couple more leaks farther up under the exhaust manifold. I have found the complete system with the flex pipe and y pipe and all that for about 125 online at overnightautoparts.com. It is made by Bosal. They list the system as the head pipe but I don't know if that is right. Does anyone know of any other places that sell what I need for cheap? Would there be a better aftermarket option for not much more?

Man, just get the WSP ypipe and be done with it. $200 ain't that much more. Shoot if you're going to go to that much work to fix the thing, might as well do it right and get some gains you can feel while you're at it, as well as better gas mileage.

you are going to pay around $200 for a stock pipe anyways. why not get a much, much better one.

if you watch the for sale forums, you might luck out and get one for less.

thanks, sola

the 2 and a 1/4 in my buddys lancer is much better, it gives a lower tone too and releves all the back pressure

You know everyone in the world has cat-back systems but I need to replace the exhaust manifold itself (rear side) Do any of you know where I can find one new?

Doesn't Pacesetter make them? I'm not altogether sure on this, so don't quote me.

I rather find a stock unit then put a pace setter brand thing on my car. Best bet would be to find a manifold in a junkyard but you better hope the engine is out because its a lot of work to get out.

Junkyard is your best bet for the exhaust manifold

Or you could try Courtesyparts.com. I think I paid anywhere from $600 -1000 for front and back...
