Yes, I have a list of 40+ from the yellow book, I can call every one of them and ask if they open tomorrow, my guess is half of them won't

if anyone knows any good shop open tomorrow, please let me know, I am looking to have a muffler installed.

OK, they don't do exhaust on Saturday anymore, says the guy doing that does now work on Saturday anymore.

And I think I have been to the other rapid brake shop, which I had a bad experience.

I've been using Minute Muffler on 32nd Ave ever since the NE location of Carline stopped opening Saturdays

*edit* that is until I bought the elcheapo mig welder from PA hehehe. ~$200 for the welder. I've more than gotten the money back for that thing. Just something to consider.

good,I just called, they open from 8-2 on Saturday.
How is the job and price by the way?

EDIT: it turns out every minute muffler opens on Saturdays, I will check one out tomorrow.

I'm happy with what they've done so far.
I got an aluminum "performance" muffler put onto my B12 Sentra for ~$600. Was only quoted $2XX for a non performance one, but mer.

When I first bought my 240 it was missing exhaust from cat back. Got Carline to put one on. 1 yr later the flange attaching pipe to cat rusted off, got Minute muffler to reweld for $1XX, 2yrs later that thing is still good.

I found their estimates to be slightly above Carline for me, but whenever I went bright and early first thing in Saturday morning no appointment made, they got me outta there by noon.
