If you don't mind me asking, how much did it cost? Also, how long did it take? Did you have to drop the car off for a day or wait at the shop? thx

Paid $125 per can, $250 total. It took about 3 hours (As i said, they took their time and pay attention to details). I waited on the shop for the car, just because I took the afternoon off for it and I wanted to see the whole process.

You can drop the car and pick it up if you want. I called him a couple of time to check on his work load to make sure he had enough time to do it.

Thanks. Do you think he'll need pictures and instructions since he just completed yours?

No, he got some Pics already we printed while I was there.

I told him that it was call "Gundo hack", so if you call him and tell him that he will know right away.

He also got 1 1/2, 1 3/4, and 2'' pipes for you to choose. I did mine with 1 3/4 it is easier to weld, so it come out a bit cleaner than the 2''

That's great to hear. So much easier when they know what I'm talking about.

Btw, is it louder with the 2" pipe? What is the difference in using different diameter?

Thumbs up for Antonio's Buckhead Mufflers

Last Friday I had them do the Gundo Hack on my 2006 C2 Cab 997, and it sounds great. Highly recommend anyone that is in the Atlanta area use them if you are interested in having the mod done to your Porsche. I did not need pictures, Jose knew all about it and has now done it 4-5 times. I went with the 1 3/4" pipes, but they have 1.5, 1.75, 1.875 pipe. Jose did recommend that I not do the 2", but had the pipe if I wanted it. Cost was $274.
Nor real difference up to 2500rpm, but after that it comes alive. The sound now matches the acceleration :-) Love it!

Jose did mine with 2" pipe. I was his first hack and I asked for 2". He told me in retrospect the welding and fit would have been easier and cleaner using 1-3/4". I cannot imagine it would make a noticeable difference to the sound.
As a side-note - without fail, every single time I autocross I get questions about what work has been done on the exhaust. Even a couple of Fabspeed guys have told me they prefer my sound.

I know this is years later but I I hope the shop is still open. I will have this mod done in the next few weeks.
