I’m going to order some borla muffs and I’m going to need a good shop that can weld them up and realign my tips in the stock location. My cat-back right now is stock I just want some more sound. 🆒 If you guys can recommend anyone or get me some deals 😉 that would be great. ---

Cannot bend the pipes but if direct replacement of mufflers, would be glad to help you there. Let me know ---

I’m guessing they pulled the “emissions equipment required” at those two shops? They’re covering their asses I’d guess? :dunno: And, yeah, see bgblockelcamino for exhaust welding work. ---

Monroe and Meineke are out of the question, I’d do custom exhaust work myself before going to them. I don’t think the muffs are a direct replacement. The shell length is the same but that’s about it. The new borlas will be half the height and alittle bit skinnier. They’re offset inlet and center outlet which is the same a stock. Also the stock piping from the Y is 2" and these are 2 1/4", the piping will probably need to be flared before welding. I know other Grand Prix guys run these. ---

Martys welding shop in East McKeesport next to nigros does really good work and are very good with the price. I had a whole custom true dual exhaust system fabbed up and he did a great job and cost me under 200bucks… ---

Wow that’s a good price. I was going to leave the rest of my cat-back stock for 2 reasons; 1 to keep the stock resonator/tips and 2 because I didn’t think I could afford a custom one now(limited college budget 🍺 ). Maybe I should just have a whole new one fabbed up ---

That’s some good shit. Mine’s just a single res into a Y with 2 muffs and tips. Is that piping double walled, cause my downpipe isn’t and it ticks like a motherfucker? I’ve already got all my pre cat-back done, should probably do the rest. 😃 ---

I went to the A-plus performance place in west mifflin. Charged me 200 to install a new cat, bend up the pipes, and put the muffler and tip on for me (i have bought all the parts before hand and brought them down.) Did nice work, nice guy too. might want to try them out get a quote or something. ---
