Contour Enthusiasts Group Archives Forums Branches W. Great Lakes exhaust shops?

Anybody know of any good shops in the area? I'm want to get my resonator taken out and replaced with a glasspack tomorrow, but I'm not sure where to take it. Where has everyone else got their work done? Just like everyone else in the world, I want decent work at a low price...suggestions?

well, i dont know how far you are from skokie, but there is a place called fair muffler, on touhy and crawford/pulaski. the place will pretty much do anything you want them to do, for a decent price..they are the only place in the area that i know of that will remover resonator....good luck

Did you get yours done there? How much did it cost you if you did..?

Send me a PM....there is one here in Aurora/Naperville called The Exhaust Works. Top quality work, HisSvt2 can vouch for it.

I got it done today. I got it done at Midas about 2 blocks from my house. It cost me $15 for a glasspack from Autozone, and 25 to have it put on. Sounds awesome!

can someone tell me what a glasspack is?

ChiTown -- it's a muffler stuffed with this fiberglass stuff that absorbs sound. Problem is.....the glass tends to get blown out and disintegrates quickly. Therefore, it serves no purpose.

I have SVT exhaust with straightpipe....IM me or something and I'll send you a sound clip. Raspy once it starts up and yes it drones a bit, but sounds cool as hell!

yea i think i'll go with a strait pipe

don't staight pipe you SVT! I did it, and the rasp and extreme loadness of it will drive you nuts, and the cops nuts too! I was cool for a little while. It was a good thing that when I got it done it was done really really cheap, so I got a real cat-back exhaust pretty fast. But I got to pulled over twice within 2 weeks of having straight pipes.

charlie, you had straight pipes? all the way back? i think they are just deleting the resenator. they still have the mufflers, i think?
