Good exhaust shop in NJ, or eastern PA for my CGT?

[passat TS]

Jonathan,

I have a big V8 generic cat, and 2.25" all the way to the back, where I have
a glasspack. It's a bit loud for street, IMHO, but a bigger glasspack can be
used. It passed the smog test almost as good as with my stock 2000 Passat.
Regarding gains, like most I5, they are minimum unless you work the cyl
head.

Later,

Carlos.
