Default Custom Exhaust from Rads?

Has anyone have a custom catback from Rads Motorsports that uses 2 cannister mufflers out the back.

I went there yesterday on Sunday as the KWs that I got installed are too low for the Fast Intentions Catback I have on my 370z (twin N1 type cannisters). Basically it ok on the street, except my driveway is too steep and the rear can drags as I start to go up my driveway.

Owner at Rads suggested using their cans (N1 type) that are smaller and free flow too. They would make from 3" flange with 2 1/2" piping to mufflers to tips for $450. I respect their comments cause they are professionals at what they do and as I did a few dyno runs there before,..top notch people. Its just that I have not seen any of their work.. Im concerned with welds and if its a chromed finish type muffler, I want to be sure the quality of chrome is good and that it wont be covered with rusted specs on it after a few months .


Post pics to PM me or on this post would be helpful. Will be raising my car 1/2 inch today at shop to fine tune and make appt on Sat to do the muffler install. hopefully I can get up my driveway after this..

I went there for my installs both a custom single exhaust that was 3 in mandrel bent and a true dual. They did a great job but pay the extra for mandrel bent piping or you will end up regretting it. But for the price of a dual mandrel exhaust I could have went with a name brand dyno and researched exhaust. Also don't use there off brand mufflers even with resonators my exhaust has crazy rasp.
