So here is the question. I recently just purchased a Magnaflow stainless steel x pipe for an install on my 2012 c300 4matic sport. There are two things i would like to know:

1) Should it be installed closer to the cats (AKA front) or closer to the rear of the car, I have heard it could possibly be detrimental to the car if installed closer to the cats, thoughts? obviously depending on where it is installed it will probably achieve a different sound as well.

2) Where should I go to get some work like this done? right now a shop called Velasquez & Sons Mufflers seems to have a ton of good reviews off Yelp (4.5/5 from 149 reviews), they are 2845 W. Belmont in Chicago and quoted me $120 to do the job over the phone.

I usually deal with Tony from Windy City Muffler on Milwaukee Ave in Edgebrook neighborhood. The exhaust pipes they use are made in Canada. Very affordable too. Give them a call.

Not sure if you're willing to get to the outskirts of the city limits, but Iggy's Muffler does amazing work and they're reasonably priced. They made their name with muscle cars and are pretty famous in that circle.
