Default Exhaust Installation

Anyone out there in the Wadsowrth/Akron Ohio area who knows of a reputable place to have an after market exhaust system installed? I read that this is the best method versus doing it myself. If I do it myself, I'll end up having to cut the stock system off - only have ramps. And wondering also, has anyone "ever" gone back to their stock exhaust anyway?

Be sure to keep your old stock exhaust. Aftermarket products can be iffy.
You would not believe the problems with aftermarket exhaust systems. Do you like the new sound? People are suprised at the sound quality in a new system. Remember most after market exhaust systems drone. If you like drone, well enjoy. of course you do increase power.

If all you want to do is a catback swap without cutting the old exhaust give me a pm and I'll do it for you at my house; I'm about 45 min. from Akron.
