Post Washington State muffler shop

Does anyone here know of any decent muffler shops in Washington State? I have a 2006 gs300 and live in South King County, and was looking for a place to change out my exhaust system with a new one, need help/recommendations. Oh and anyone have any recommendations on a particular type of exhaust system? Any help is appreciated, thanks!!!

Post in the regional for more help. In the mean time, what is your end goal for the exhaust (cat back or axle-back)? Is your current one worn out or are you looking for a performance aftermarket? Price range?

I think both my cats are going bad, so I was looking for an exhaust system with the cats. Oem or aftermarket is fine just not trying to spend too much 1200-1500 seems reasonable I think, idk. Lmk your input, thanks!

How do you know your cats are bad? Do you have a Check engine light? Most aftermarket systems don't have cats pre-installed. If its the cats in the exhaust, you are better off getting new ones welded in.

I don't really, but narrowed it down to it being the cats or the o2 sensors, my vsc and c.e.l. light have been on for a while since October 2016. Went to get tabs for the new year and it failed due to p420 and p430 codes. I have the stock exhaust on there now and I do believe that the cat is welded on the the exhaust itself. So yeah, I was looking to get a system with the cat already welded on. Thanks for the input.
