Default DFW Muffler Shops...?

So I have a bit of an exhaust leak on the stock pipes and am using that to justify new mufflers and piping for christmas. Does anyone know a good shop with reasonable prices to fab up some piping and install new mufflers?

Trying to keep the budget on the lower side, not looking for anything too fancy. I dont really know what costs what as far as exhaust piping goes since I dont know who to call for a quote. Ill probably do just a 2.5" piping into some either cheap magnaflows or maybe some offbrand ebay type stuff. Depends on the sound clips and prices I guess. Not lookin to boost this specific car, so 3" pipes might be overkill...right?

is it for an IS? 2.5" could even be an overkill.. 3" would be awesome for a huge torque loss!

This is for an sc300...and without boost yes, 3" would be a nice power loss. You suggesting I stick with the 2.25"?
