Seriously, any muffler shop should be able to do it. The shop I went to was not a custom shop, just a regular old shop. I stayed on the floor with them to oversee the whole thing though. Hi, my name is Tim, I have OCD......

I've been burned by muffler shops in the past, I want to be safe and go to one that is recommended and member's have had work done at.

Just to be safe

Really? Have you heard this set up in person? Does it sound like a Muscle car at idle, cruising as well?

It will sound just like Garrett's in that video. You can put any tips on the car and they will sound the same. They are just tips, they have no baffle or anything in them, just straight pipes. My pipes are better than the rest though. LOL.....

No worries.

An Xpipe is NOT the same thing as a resonator. An Xpipe is just that, a pipe in the shape of an X to replace the resonator. The Resonator has baffles in it to quiet down the exhaust, and add some backpressure. If you still have your OEM resonator, then you are in business. If not, you will have a hard time finding one unless someone wants to trade for your Xpipe. You should come out on top of that deal with some extra $$$.
