Exhaust Shops in MA

Hey all. I was curious to see if any of you MA. TCCOAers knew of any good exhaust shops in MA. I'm looking to get some true duals done and don't want to spend a fortune, but I want the quality to be decent. Anywhere in Central Mass or within an hour of worcester would be preferable. Thanks.

I've gone to Lous custom exhaust in Westport and Plymouth, both were pretty good.

if you want true duals your going to have to cut the third cat off befour you bring it to an exhaust shop. almost no shop will remove a cat

Don't worry about it there. Just point to it, tell them the "resonator" needs to be removed with a wink. I know of three cars that had "resonators" removed without issue there..... =)

good to know. I figured since my car doesn't need to pass the sniffer test that they wouldn't care about cutting it off.

Even when you did have to pass the sniffer test they didn't care. Mine passed it fine with only two cats.
