| Exhaust shop recommendation?
Does anyone know of an exhaust shop that will not think twice about removing catalytic converters?

hoegler muffler across from the cactus club on no3 road will do it.
Or just hollow out your stock cat, run spark plug non foulers to space out the o2 sensor and pass aircare visual + OBD scan with ease

I don't even need to do all that since the O2 sensor is in front of the primary cats. Secondary cats are utterly useless and need to be removed lol. Its simple cut and weld job...

I was worried about doing anything to my previous cars and their exhaust, but at the end of the day, they are just cutting pipes that can be replaced or put back to stock...

Buddy takes his car to mufflerman on king sway and said they do a really good job that doesn't break the bank. He drives a 3 series and has had no issues.
I am planning to get some exhaust work done on my x5. Let us know how your experience is when u choose the shop!

+1 for muffler man, good job and good prices. Just make sure to get the owner (Mike I think was his name?) to check the job before you leave while the car is still on the lift. Sometimes his workers don't do the best job and if he catches that he'll make them redo it. No extra charge of course

Got my bmw performance exhaust installed at muffler man. It requires the oem exhaust to be cut after secondary cats. They used a power saw blade and poked through my alumnium heat shields several times...I was cringing each hole they made but watever, I paid $80 for what other shops was goin charge me $300.
