Good muffler shop Austin- Dallas

Can anyone recommend a good muffler shop... preferably in the greater Austin area since I live just north of Austin... I do go up to Dallas to shoot about once a month so if you know a really good shop anywhere between Austin and south Dallas I would love to hear about it.

By good I mean they do good work and have reasonable prices. I called one shop here in Austin yesterday and they quoted me $700 to install a true dual exhaust system with hi flow cats, an x-crossover, bullets and tips. I'm pretty much replicating mblouirs setup and remembering that he paid $160 to have it installed I was like when they quoted me $700.

I'm going to call up a bunch of shops on Monday and get some more quotes but not knowing anything about any of them I'd just as soon use a shop that someone here can recommend.

Thank you!

Kalash

I'm in Pflugerville, which is in between Austin and Round Rock. Google maps says Killeen is about an hour away from me. I don't mind the drive if it's to a good shop that isn't trying to retire off of my business alone

i used graves in waco when i was in hs, it was just under 400 for true dual glass packs and 3.5 in tips. and they always did really good work, made sure everything was level and strait.
