TAF's First Marauder Customer

[GA-Marauder]

As most of you may know now, Todd (TAF) is the new owner of Grand Muffler in the Marietta area. I am proud to say that my Marauder was the first at his new business.:D

Buster (original owner of Grand Muffler, and still owner of the shop next door that does the custom bending and welding) put together a PERFECT 2.5" stainless, mandrell bent exhaust from my cats, through a beautiful custom x-pipe, then through a set of stainless Magnaflows to the original tips. Todd made sure through the process that the tips were moved just past the rear bumper (1 and 3/8" total movement) so that most of the new deep resonance is on the outside. The work was great, the system looks fantastic, and sounds like a Marauder should. Nice and deep.

I also met Todd's dad, who I think has taken up temporary residence at the shop, and is a great guy. He obviously is an enthusiast too, and fired up my MM so I could get a good listen from outside.

Great job, Todd, and I hope everyone who can will stop by and see this highly competent shop. Hears to Todd for a great new endeavor.:beer:

The F-150 was another one of Todd's projects. How nice is this?

Like LK, that thing has so many "detail" changes that if you don't know what the stock truck looks like, you can't even guess all of the changes!

Yeah, it looks very, very sweet. A true one of a kind.

Hey, wheres the lights and hoses? and it needs a dalmation too!

TAF, I think I know where my exhaust is going to get 'dun' :) Might come up early for MV III.....

By the way, I found these pictures from Todd in the gallery comparing his X-pipe to the stock H-pipe. Hmmm, these sure look like the pipe on LK. Wonder if I have a patent infringement suit.....

Marty, Todd told me this is almost a clone of yours.:rolleyes: As far as patent rights infringement, all I know is that I'm keeping it!:D

The pics Marty posted shows the x-pipe in my MM. He didn't get a chance to take pics when it was completed on the rack. Maybe I'll go back for a photo session.:rolleyes:
