   My local exhaust guy used to be a Meineke before he went independant. 
He's never had any trouble fabricating custom exhaust for any of the cars

hit-or-miss, but if it's a well-reccomended shop, I expect you've hit gold.

   I'd say decide if you want single or sual, and do the whole system now.
