Stainless Works CNC mandrel-bent exhaust systems are the simply the best for improving your vehicle's performance, sound, and mileage.

Stainless Works also builds their mufflers entirely of stainless steel. They will never "burn in," "blow out," or change their tone—ever. Choose from a selection of universal or application-specific muffler designs, including turbo chambered (loud), chambered round (louder—can be reversed for an even more aggressive sound), and turbo S-tube (loudest—may be too aggressive for a daily driver). Additional features of Stainless Works CNC mandrel-bent exhaust systems include: * 304 stainless will never red-rust like cheaper 409 stainless * TIG-welded for strength * Durable 3/8 in. thick flanges * Mandrel-bent (no buckling) for optimal flow * Variety of tip options (varies by application) * Truck exhausts available with three exit locations: behind the passenger tire; under the rear bumper (one on each side); and in front of the passenger tire * Install-Ready; all systems come with all necessary parts to make installation as smooth as possible
