Does anyone know of a shop in houston, who will take on a project to gutt the e55 mufflers. I have contacted numerous ones and they don't seem interested.
People who have done this, how much does it cost.

I have done the resonator delete with 3 inch straight pipes. Still have the factory secondaries and h pipe. I know I can get rid of the secondaries but then I will loose the factory h pipe. Don't know if I want to go that route, but it is always a viable option. I want some more sound.

you could try a Place called Ripley's Exhaust, they are on the corner of FM 1960 and Kuykendahl !! they do a fair bit of custom work, I think they also have the only Mandrel bender in Texas,
