Many customers at the shop use Walker exhausts, they are $$$$ but a good shop should be able to cut you a deal.

Very few shops can bend 4" pipe.
So since you have to buy all the bends it will be very expensive to fab a 4" exhaust.
Then you have to have a joint on each side of every bend that is either welded or clamped.

A lot of shops can bend 3" stuff.
I helped build mine with stacks for about 300 dollars several years ago.
The guy that owns the muffler shop was my good neighbor though.
