Where to get exhaust done?

**gearheadjunkie2** · 03-11-2009 12:38 PM

I Have a 2005 F150 FX4 supercrew with lots of mods but I just ordered a manaflow 14" muffle and black chrome tip for my truck. im looking to just get a simple install where the shop cuts out the old muffler, welds in the new one with some ext pipe(stock muffler is longer) and just cut down the pipe where it exits behind my passenger rear tire and weld on the tip.

I had a bad experience with a minke muffler shop, the welds looked like asshole on a Mach1 I had. Does anyone know where to get this done with good welds?

I have LPP stainless headers on the truck and a K&N drop in, it should sound and drive great with the exhaust.

I recently went to Sure Stop on the corner of Parsons and 60. they cut off an existing tip and welded on a new one. Good guys there. Good prices. I know a couple people that have gotten full custom exhausts from them. Nothing but good reviews

Running fine. Good job on the install.

BTW it sucks the shop had to close. I never pushed the case but the owner still owes me about $40-50 cause he charged me for extra RP gear oil for when I was going to come back and get the front diff fluid changed and then the shop closed. And Im out my money.

Ask him if he'll still sell me that F150 tow hitch package from his pops truck. I still dont have one. And he owes me that $$ anyway, I still have the receipt.

He said back then hed sell for $175 with the Warn shackle insert for the hitch remember. Tell him if he still has the hitch/hardware Ill buy it for $130. -Adam

Just got off the phone with ya.

I just wanted to let everyone know what a standup person Adam is (IwinUlose) and anthony. They did not know they hadnt changed the owed fluids when the shop closed. I am getting my fluids changed tomorrow and getting the F150 hitch with warn shackle kit at a discount. A+

why not get something that shows proven hp gains? Magnaflow. I'm not a huge chop cut guy. you spent good money on headers why not go the rest of the way and do the set up right?

**mrx007** · 03-23-2009 11:12 AM

Magnaflow is a name man, just like flowmasters, don't get it twisted. those "proven" numbers are "proven" because any after market exhaust is going to show improvements over stock. Name hype name hype name hype.
Yes there are other designs that show more power over others. I'd rather notspend all that money for a full system from magnaflow, have it done by pros, knowing im taking it out and most likely going to catch it on a rut,rock,ect.

Unless im sponsored, i will never buy full systems again, after seeing the work at MadHatters. show car or shit box.
