    Default i need a reputable exhaust shop yesterday!!

    i need a shop preferably in the loganville/greyson/snellville area who can fix a nasty exhaust leak on my 02 mustang. i have been told by a tech at mustangs unlimited that my mac h pipe is notorius for not fitting properly. i need someone who can heat and refit my flange where it mounts to the exhaust manifold on the driver side. pleeeeease help!!

    I dont know anyone in that area but the best shop that I have dealt with for exhaust is main stream... but they are a hell of a drive for you, as they were for me.

    I would say Mainstream but if you need something done yesterday you can give Andy's muffler a shot. 124 and Oak rd.

    I'd strongly recommend Mainstream. They're going to do my header back next Tuesday.

    However, they're a hell of a drive. They should pay for my gas $$.

    i actually think its not illegal to work on a car without a cat. i think the illegal is if they remove your cat. hence why mike says its for "offroad use only"

    It is illegal. If a shop takes a car in, that shop is legally bound to not let the car leave unless it has a cat on it. You'll be hard pressed to find a shop that will touch your car. Later, QD.

    Yes, any State Licensed Exhaust shop is bound by state an federal law to insure a car leaves with a Catalytic Convertor on it. They arent allowed to touch any car without a cat on it either.

    However, performance shops can get away with it because , my work is for OFF ROAD use only, so if you drive it on the street, it doesnt come back to me

    Exactly. I was just refering to your basic, local muffler shops....Meinike and those guys. They get a HUGE fine if they get caught. Later, QD.
