Wanted: Good exhaust shop around Indy

Looking for a good exhaust shop that is close to the Indianapolis area to put on my WS2 system. I don't really want to take it to some run of the mill Midas or CarX. Need a reputable shop

Go!

the shop that did mine was really good.. they are a small shop and kinda got that "hick" feeling but they treated me pretty good and like I said did a pretty good job for pretty cheap since it was all direct bolt up (I cant remember exactly but I wanna say installed under $60) .. Ill see if I can find them and ill let you know


And FYI: Midas and Carx wont install your stuff.. they will only install stuff you buy from them.. insurance reasons

Here it is... Dont know if you wanna drive out that far but this is my recommendation

Main Street Muffler Shop
11605 East Washington Street,
Cumberland, IN

www.mainstreetmufflerandbrake.com

Thanks for the info

Midas installed my Megan header

how did the back of your head feel from hitting the bottom of the service desk repeatedly? lol.. Ive gone to both midas and carx and they told me they cant install aftermarket stuff. They can only install stuff you buy directly from them

Funny joke. The guy quoted me a price, I said I'd look around. He then dropped it by 40 bucks to close the deal.

too bad you dont live by me i know a shop that will put it on for only 30-40$

My dad lives near Chicago. What's the address?

i recomend ralphs muffler across the street from tru, they are kinda little hick shop too. but they are the ones i had weld up my header, and they are also the ones who fixed the exhaust on my old car which had 3 leaks for like $50

or... you could install it yourself if its a catback, it realllly isnt too hard

Wow, that's cheap.. Just for comparison reasons, I had my catback installed at a shop in Chi that I go to mostly for $80.

moved to correct section

they only give me that hook up cuz i know them so i would have to be with you but they normally charge anywhere from 70-90$

if its bolt on i can do it and i do some welding

Looks like I'll be doing this myself....in the rain

Every shop around Indy wants between $84 and $100.......for ONE HOUR's worth of labor. GTFO. All it takes to do it is unbolting old, bolting in new. Maybe a little heat if bolts are seized.

It's supposed to rain all weekend, and I cannot get my car up my driveway with how low it is. Floor jack and jack stands it is

That shop is straight through the heart of Indy. My car would never make it. Lol at the street view of that place. No gonna happen. I appreciate it though

I usually do for simple stuff. I should take it to your uncle

lol that street view is from like 5 years ago lol

drive your car over and you can drop off that radio trim peice lol

Just spent all night trying to get this damn exhaust installed.

Had to raise up my coilovers to even pull in the garage.
I got all the hangers off and was ready to unbolt it.
The 3 year old nuts on the catalytic converter were seized on.
Heat didn't help.
PB Blaster didn't help.
Couldn't cut through the bolts with cutting blade.
So I was stuck.

I will be taking it to the shop to get it done. Ill pay someone $100 before I crawl by big self under there again for 3 hours trying to get it done.




Remind me whenever I think I can mod my car on my own....to save the hassle, and just take it in
