Good Afternoon fellow Texas forum members!

So I have some questions for you guys and looking for some insight. I recently purchased the SW retro-chambered cat-back exhaust system (courtesy of Juiced1 =P) and I would like it to be professionally installed, looking to get it done around the Houston area. Now for the questions. I want to have the exhaust installed AND get it Dyno'd the same day preferably at the same shop. I know that typically people don't dyno it with just an exhaust and CAI and such (so I have seen) but I heard that if you use the same shop the next time you bring it in for a tune it is not as expensive. Basically wondering if that's a pretty common practice? As I am keeping the door open for later to add headers and such. Also if my thinking of 700$ for exhaust install and dyno is a good ballpark figure of what I'd be looking at. Thanks for your input guys!

Check in with KP Racing or PowerFab if you are up North or J-Rods Speed Shop down South... yes things are cheaper if you stick with the same shop adding mods and getting things re-tuned. They would already have your tune files and would just tweak it to the new mod.

Also check out H-townCamaroClub.com You'll get some good local advice there too.

Thanks mlee! I'll check that out. I've tried looking into J-rods but could not ever find anything on it

Known him for years and he's a great choice. His new shop is down South near 59 and 99 in Rosenberg TX. Mostly see his stuff on Instagram or his son posts on FB.
