Hey Brandon - I'm in Monroe, but don't know of anyone in the Shreveport area to recommend to you. I haven't ventured into the exhaust arena just yet. If I hear of someone, I'll be happy to post the info though.

I agree... you should check out the Road Trip to Austin thread.... I'm driving over to join the crew in DFW to drive down in April. It's gonna be FUN!!!
Oh.... by the way - I'm a chick.

check out the sticky on mufflers in the performance section. they have sound clips and pics of most of the major brands making exhaust systems for the rx8 there. also lots of member input.
My neck isn't red, N-O. Stop being a turd!

Super cheap Greddy exhaust.
Super cheap Greddy exhaust.
But definitely a good find for Brandon and anyone else looking to get Greddy.

lol, no, I told him how much I could get it for and he beat it, I think $525 or so is what he said last week. He knows he needs to give me a good deal because I can always find better online.

Thanks. :D I'm pretty sure they know I mean business. I'm really nice to them (or course), but I know enough car lingo that I can throw some words and phrases out there so it seems like I know what I'm talking about and I will know if they don't do something right, and all those years in customer service taught me what to say so that I get what I want. :D Yes, Dazy can play hardball.
