OEM Exhaust Mod DFW

Anybody know of a shop in Dallas/FW that will do the exhaust mod (perforated method preferably)? Any input would be much appreciated.

Thanks

Thanks for the response. So do those shops do the mod and are you trying to do some sort of group deal?

Hey guys, I'm in the dfw area.. Is there a thread with locals or about gtg?

Also exhaust mod is fairly easy I can help you do it.... Just an angle grinder some tubing and a bit of welding, or we could do it to my stock exhaust and just swap them since mine is already off.

I might take you up on that offer. I agree that it looks easy. I've never taken off an exhaust and have no welding skills what so ever.

Taking it off isn't bad other than the annoyance of those damn rubber hanger bushing things....

I was going to do this mod but just bought Megan system instead and I'm really happy with it. I am about to add the sosi x pipe too.

I have thought about the Megan as I don't want to spend a lot but want to liven up the exhaust. How is the Megan? Is it noticeably louder than stock? I don't think I want to go the xpipe route as that may be a bit too loud for me.

noticeably louder yes, but loud no. quality is actually REALLY good and fits perfect with no weirdness.

i live in fort worth and work in irving if you want to hear it

another thing to consider is that if you did the megan and it was just barely not loud enough you can knock out the 250 cell baffle material inside your resonators and it makes it a tiny bit louder

The only clips I have are without the primary cats. But the video M power Belgium posted is spot on.

Selling because I have a titanium exhaust now since I'm trying to drop weight. The Modded exhaust still sounds better than the exhaust I got. LOL. I'll miss the noise.

Just wondering, do you need to have resonators for no drone if you have OEM x-pipe (full cat) or is it only for catless setup?

I ran mine catless for a while. It doesn't drone, but anytime you breathe on the gas it gets pretty loud and boomy.

But I also kept the secondary cats and resonators. It was a great noise. I loved it. It sounds better than my current setup. Just heavier!

I am definitely interested. Maybe we can work out a time next week for me to take a look at it? I work in Williams Square Towers (with the horses).

Does anyone have contact information for Epic? I've searched around but only come up with a Diesel Truck place.
