I think I remember reading a while back that there were no local shops doing custom mandrel bends for exhaust. Well I happen to run across an ad for Master Performance in Brampton which says they do it. I guess this is useless if I'm wrong about the topic but I hope I'm not.

Yup, they are up on Kennedy Road but charge an arm and a leg to do a mandrel bent system.

Not to step on any toes, but if you go to pretty much any performance shop that does custom work, they can do a custom mandrel bent system from pre bent pieces. They are usually cheaper than going to a normal exhaust shop as well. I know b/c I have gotten some prices that are very competitive to the brullen system in CAD, but more customizable (not that the Brullen system isn't customizable)

While you do that, I'll enjoy my lifetime warranty from Brullen.

I was just providing another option to somone that may not be able to affod the Brullen or just don't like the sound. BTW...If you have ever read any posts commenting/enquiring about Brullen, you will notice that I have had nothing but positive comments about it.

whatever you, just make sure you go to a reputable shop, I have heard a couple of stories from around here from people getting screwed, even from some of say the better know names around town. Not trying to scare anyone off, but if you can get a referral to a shop from someone that has been there before and is happy/sastisfied, tht is your best bet.

Actually I'm not even the one looking for a new exhaust now. Thought there were less options but I guess there's more than I remember. Brullen triggered my mind now ... I remember watching that video before.
