yeah , I used him for years, finally got tired ..Keavin used to use him as well,
there where other issues also. that was just one of them for me..
I now use Precision Exhaust in LaPorte..
great shop, and I trust his work..
but it's all in who you like

I had shorties, and he doesnt know anyhting about the new setups..
if all you want is a piece of pipe, and a muffler with a tip, he can do it..
I just got tired of argueing with him... well not argueing, but got tired of having to point out his misinformation..
Guy is a douche, he has little big man syndrome...Do not have them do anything more than a muffler swap or adding tips like stated before...my brother had to get his 96 redone and it keeps breaking leaks where they weld and this is about the 10th time (no lie, maybe more) and they still havn't got it right. We are about to rip all of it off and toss it through there window.

take the truck over to Precision Muffler off of HWY146 in between Spencer, and Fairmont PKWY on the north bound side...
It's right after the Ford Dealership, and right before you get to the Wataburger,
Talk to Eric, and tell him why you are there..
alot of his work, is redoing what DPM has done.
thats where I am having mine redone...

I have had several little jobs done here, and there from Eric, and so far I am pleased..
one in particlular was the ol' leaking header flange.. DPM never could get it right.. I kept going back complaining of an exhaust leak, and they never could fix it... took it to PM and havnt had an issue with it since..

I'll have them in mind next time I need an exhaust job, I guess sooner or later I'll run into that problem so might as well change it up...

The guy overcharges imo, when I got my L/T s and re- done my exhaust. I found a guy in pasadena that does great work and prices.
