Exhaust, 3 inch mandrel bent pipeing?

[JasonYC530tsi]

I have a 1g eagle talon tsi with some mods and need to open up the exhaust. No company makes a good looking or good sounding exhaust system for this car. Im interested in a HKS Carbon TI muffler and 3 inch mandrel bent pipeing. But with my luck I can not find any muffler shop that has a mandrel bend machine! I live in california, about 45 miles from sac. Does anyone know of any mufflers shops with a mandrel bend machine in my area? Also I want to upgrade my fuel system at the same time but dont really know much on how to tune or anything. Im interested in the RC 650 injectors, Walbro 255 pump and a fuel pressure regulator. Can anyone help on what else I need to completely install and tune the fuel system. What different kind of electronics or tools do I need? Any input is greatly appreciated, Thanks

As far as your exhaust goes, if your looking for a really good sounding exhaust, go with the thermal R and D. Its the best sounding exhaust that I have ever had out of all the different DSM's I have owned and I have had about 15 of them. Also for tuning, your going to need either an SAFC or DSM-link. Those are the two most popular. Before installing new injectors, I would really advice on reading a lot on how to tune a car. A few other things I would advise before tuning is data logger, and an EGT gauge. If you are not sure on how to tune, I would not recommend installing bigger injectors until you've really read and understand how to tune your car.

Yes I agree with ^^^^ on the tuning and about the exhaust. Check out Bushcur racing exhausts, or megan racing, they both make very good, and very nice sounding. The megan exhaust is pretty cheap, and a very nice SS set up.
