Default custom exhaust work in DFW

Anyone know of a good custom shop in the area? There was a guy in Plano (Nick I think) who guys were recommending a few years ago; is he still in business?
I'm planning on putting LTs on my car and am thinking of having someone modifiy my Y pipe to relocate the cats as opposed to buying a new Y pipe with cats. Any thoughts on this?
Thanks

Sounds like alot of PIA...It can be done but ground clearance with cats will always be an issue...especially with LT's that have any kind of collector.

What kind of Y-pipe do you have now that you are trying to modify? If its a stock y-pipe dont bother. Build a new one....

Here's one i just built without cats for a set of Kooks headers.

Craig at extreme chasis will usually do some nice exhaust work if you can get ahold of him.

I have the factory SLP dual-dual exhaust that has the 3" Y pipe. I'd like to keep things as legal as I can since my ride is a daily driver and we have these damn annual inspections.

Nothing wrong with the exhaust, I just like to be different (as you could tell from my PM).

I am not a ricer!
