Exhaust Leaks + Broken Brakets = 0h $h!t!

My exhaust is leaking in multiple places, and the whole thing rattles like crazy in the rear. I had my shop take a look at it, but they said I'd need a whole new system because it was rusting away as they tried to patch the holes.

Any ideas for a muffler/exhaust shop in or around Atlanta (east side pref) that does good/cheap work? I may need a new cat and muffler as well - any thoughts as to what I should get for a nice deep, non ricer rumble?

Figure I might as well upgrade the system while it needs new parts anyway.

Upgrade. Get a brand new catback. Cheaper and less headache imo..

I know it most likely can't wait but this group buy in would be awful tempting

Tempting, but pricey. I'm thinking as cheap as possible, but Id still like it to be an upgrade (which most aftermarket exhaust parts are).

Napa Oem replacement exhaust system from Bosal will fix your problem...That's if you're not interested in an Aftermarket performance catback! The Bosal unit is minimum $$$ to obtain....
