    I will have to find some other pics later. We have done plenty of RSX's.

    Here is a pic from today where all three cars were getting custom exhaust.

    Grand Muffler in Marietta mandrel bends, and does custom piping for exhaust of I/C. They did a great job on the one they did for us.

    ^^^ Grand Muffler has been doing custom fab piping for many many moons. I've had several cars up there done by Buster and the boys. Even though Buster doesn't own the business anymore their quality of work has never dropped off one bit.

    Well i was referring to IA Sponsors. Mainstream is prob the only Sponsor that regularly fabricates exhausts and other stuff.

    Batlground can also do it as Brandon does an excellent job (dan does to but thats obvious) .

    In terms of volume though i know mainstream does more.

    48 miles isnt far

    Oh and Grand Muffler is no more, they are something else now, they were sold or bought out

    Everyone makes exhaust, just pick your spot. If mileage is a concern then go with whoever is close. Its obvious most shops here fab, and do it well, if not they would not be around.

    if you take it to mainstream you could get the exhuast done and tuned on the same day.

    I would give first look to the IA Sponsors as others have suggested.

    Aside from the ones listed, I think Mahdavi also does this sort of work, and I would put them on the list of places to contact.

    I have seen their work as they have worked on my cars, so they get a thumbs up from me. Additionally, I have seen the work of Mainstream and BATLgroud, and can give them both a positive report (MY opinion). I have not see the work of some of the other shops mentioned, but have heard good things.

    Mainstream does great work, had my dp made and couldn't believe they were able to do such a good job without removing the turbo and the turnaround was a few hours
