Ace Muffler in Westminster. They're open Saturday, not Sunday though. I think you'd be hard pressed to find a shop that opens on Sunday.

Ask for Karl, he hooked me up for the same $60 he charged greenbean. I went with 1 3/4" ID piping. It's about 20-25% louder than stock with no drone. Perfect.

"Better" depends on the person. I didn't want a loud boomy exhaust that would give me a headache on the freeway, so yes, for me this was a better solution. YMMV

There's your problem. I debated going between 1.75" and 2" piping and decided to stick with the "conservative" 1.75". I doubt you're going to hear any difference with 1" piping.

It takes a day or two for the weld to cure. It happened to me too. Now it sounds great.
