I have a Beaudesert 3" turbo back system, running no mufflers. Works well and bolted up pretty easily. I got mine trade as we sell them at work, but expect to pay somewhere around $1200 including freight and fitting.

for a 3inch mandrel bent exhaust from an exhaust shop u prob looking from $1000 up to 1300$, $1000 was the cheapest i found when hunting around melbourne or you can order one through a company like mtq, Beaudesert and i think 4wd systems do aswell really cheap

The dump is the most complex part of the exhaust. The rest of it should be a snack for any exhaust shop worth their name.

I just had a brand new system fitted last week. About $800 should see it fitted incl hand made dump pipe. Thats what I paid.

I got an MTQ for my GQ - picked it up cheap new-second hand. I just fitted another to my brothers GU (not sure what brand, but a cheaper system) and i found it didn't mate up as well as the MTQ did on my GQ.

Also keep in mind that people have different idea's of what a 3" dump is.

If you buy a cast dump pipe, make sure you ask what the inside diameter of the dump pipe is. It may just be designed to fit up to a 3 inch but only have a 2 and a half inch internal.
