THE TRUCK:
4runner with 22re. I have a complete rebuilt engine and am confused about the exhaust? I have piping that is 1.5" all the way back. I have a new magnaflow cat and a flowmaster 44 on its way.

THE ISSUE:
I have stock pipes that are 1.5" and smaller do to the fact they used a pipe bender to make them(see pic). I want to take these back and have good pipes bent up to 2" and 2.25".

THE QUESTIONS:
1. I have called around to several shops and nobody does muffler work. They just install stock. One shop said they could bend pipe and would charge for material and 70hr labor. How long should it take to match up the old pipes, I will do the install. Where do I go?
2. If the exit on the exhaust manifold is 1.5" wouldn't that be a problem to go into 2" pipes? (see pic)
3. The pipe that goes from the Manifold to the cat has a custom fit to the manifold. Do I have a shop make this and pay through the nose or is there a way I can get these parts to make it myself, parts being the backet that bolts to the manifold and the splitter pipe. (see pic)
