SoCal OEM Exhaust Mod Help!

keungsteven · 11-15-2015, 08:41 PM

Is there anyone here in SoCal (I'm in the OC/Fullerton area) that wouldn't mind helping me do this exhaust mod? Or does anyone know any good shops that they would recommend? Just trying to be frugal with my funds since black friday and the holidays are just around the corner... Thanks!

What OEM mod? the exhaust?

I'm guessing he is looking for help with the OEM muffler mod.

No one can really help until they have like a metal shop... you need to cut open steel and have a welding machine.

Sorry for the confusion! But you are correct! I was referring to the muffler mod (either perforated or acm)

I think it was around 300 to 350.
Give him a call, he has done it multiple times and should be able to tell you how much, the only down side he takes his time so you might have to leave the car there for a day.

If u feel like saving money.. I used a grinder to cut open the muffler, used a sawzall to cut the pipes out. Bought pipes from autozone and cut them to fit.. then took it to a muffler shop for 40$.. I spent like 60$ in total? That's including a grinder wheel and sawzall blade.
