Exhaust shop Houston

Anyone know a exhaust shop in Houston that will charge a reasonable price and do quality work? I need to have my MBRP 4" cat back system installed.

That's a really easy job, you could probably do it with a wrench and WD-40... If not ANY shop should do it for you and not take more than about 20 minutes to install. Its a slam dunk ! Look in the phone book and make a few calls and get some prices or look on the net and a good shop will have a web site and phone numbers in your area..... If they pause or have any concern with a MBRP cat back, you probably need to hang up and call someone else. Don't let some shop rip you off for such and easy quick job, good luck

Tomball Mufflers on 2920 has done work for me in the past and is reasonable..
Can do it yourself but but you might need a sawzall to cut the tailpipe off the rear of the muffler, depending how bad the crimp is.

Really?? They have done work for me in the past with my '92 Ford Exploder and they also installed a Gibson exhaust on my '98 Chevy C1500. No problems whatsoever.

You should do it yourself... I was going to recommend a shop in conroe but you should just do it yourself.. Go to lowes or home depot and find a sawzall on sale for $70, you should have one anyway.

My uncle is fairly competent mechanic and he said just take it to the muffler shop and let them do it for $50 bucks and be done with it. I tend to agree. I had good luck with Ripley Muffler of Kuykendahl and Fm1960. Im gonna give them a call and see what they say.

Yeah, sometimes for 50 bones is worth it just to not mess with it. Just remember when they weld the joints you can't adjust them again so eye it a few times to make sure it is acceptable work.
