Default Had my exaust switched at Merlin

People in the Fox Valley area in IL for a good exaust job I recomend the Meril shop in Batavia, IL Had my stock C5 exaust removed & replaced with a Magnaflow 16732 performance axleback exaust at a local Merlin shop in Batavia , IL
All work was done in a very satisfactory manner.
The General Manager Tom Carlson gave me a good deal as they have done many many C5 exausts They did a great job, performed with care & making sure that I was happy with everything before dropping the car down.

I think he posted in wrong section. But good info, I'm in Naperville so pretty close. How much did you pay for the swap?

not sure which section this belongs. I was quoted $80 & was charged $70
have not had a chance to check the sound at over 45 mph yet, but sounds great at idle - a little lower tone than I had expected & much much better at WOT but not so loud as to be atracting too much attention

C5 General would be the section for your post. You're currently in the parts wanted/for sale section.

Yep! did mine two years ago. Very professional job, watched them like a hawk up and down the ramp. Said the owner had vettes. I would recommend also.
