**SteveRT** · 04-26-2006, 09:01 PM

Hello all,
Finally ordered my exhaust system (Borla 140125), should get here next week, now I need to get some recommendations on where to have it installed. Dallas is to far (Im 20 miles N of DWF), anybody have any shop they know of, heard of? Any suggestions appreciated!!

Come by and we can slap-em on.

If you want a garage to do try Pronto Muffler & Brake Center (1800 Central Expwy, Plano, TX 75074 / Phone:(972) 423-7705

Their on 75's North Service road, just north of 15th Street in Plano.

It looks like a hole in the wall but they do good work and are good people. I always stop by at lunch or after work if I need my exhaust welded. I've been going there for over 6 years.

Bump on Pronto. They custom made me an exhaust for my S10 and for a damn good price. Great people. But if you want a really great person take Mango up on his offer, great guy!

I had my Magnaflows installed by a "speed shop" and ended up taking it to Pronto to get it adjusted so it didn't rattle like rocks in a pan. They spent some time and worked to get it all straight- I can highly recommend them...

I may go by there (Pronto) once the new headers come in - I've been through putting them on once, and I don't think I want to ask Mango or AM to go through that with me

There's a couple places around that I've had some work done at, never been 100% satisfied.

I had my Borla 112s installed at Pronto Muffler in Plano TX. right on hywy 75. the Parker Road exit I think?...THey did a great job..

Put me down as another vote for Pronto -- I've been going to these guys for 20 years, and they rock.

I dropped in Tuesday afternoon and had them replace the stock mufflers on my 300C with FlowMaster 50s, delete the resonators and add some nice magnaflow tips upsized a bit to fill the bumper cutouts.

I walked in without an appointment, my car was on the rack 3 minutes later, and 45 minutes later I was driving off with a car that now sounds more like a hemi should -- for about half the price of a catback system.

Their brake service rocks also -- honest, fast and reasonably priced.

Just north of 15th street on the northbound 75 service road. Not much on looks, but they do good work.

Pronto did an excellent job on my install. I was in and out in 45 minutes, very nice, even took time to make sure the tips were as perfect as could be without even making me ask. So glad everyone recommended this place.

**MangoInTX** · 05-05-2006, 05:05 PM

Great to hear and glad your happy with the end result.

Pronto... another satisfied customer. LOL

**American Muscle** · 05-05-2006, 10:45 PM

I wonder if they do header installs?

I called and they don't do headers, bummer.

Hum... another brain fart... they have two bay areas. One large area w/at least three lifts and a small bay with a single lift. Wonder if they would rent out the smaller one? I'll bug them another day on that thought and will post their reply.

For header install, you might try Keithcraft -- they're a speed shop on the other side of Central from Pronto (on the southbound access road), about a block and a half north of 15th.

I've never taken my 300C to them, nor have I ever had them do headers, but I had them do quite a bit of other work on a Fox-body mustang I used to have, and they always did a good job at a good price.

They kind of specialize in Shelbys, but they work on most anything -- if I was doing headers on an LX, I wouldn't hesitate to call them and get a price quote.
