Mid-Muffler Delete

Looking to do the mid-muffler delete, any recommendations for a good shop in Jacksonville?

Thanks!
Doing the mid-muffler delete on that car (to ostensibly make it sound more to your liking) is like acquiring a meth habit to lose weight - sure, the end result could resemble what you set out to accomplish, but it’s just the wrong way to do it, especially when there are so many other “right” approaches that can be employed.
 
Such as...?
My preferred approach for improving the exhaust sound on my Hemi’s has been to cut the resos off and replace the factory mufflers with a couple aftermarket ones I purchase myself. I don’t have a welding machine, so I pay an exhaust shop to do the labor, but the actual parts cost (the two mufflers) is pretty damned reasonable. The two JFB mufflers I put on my 2012 were less than $80 for the pair (something like $36 each).

I went a more circuitous route on my 2014, trying several different brands of mufflers before finally settling on some Hooker Aerochamber mufflers for it. They were more expensive ($100 each), and they sound good, but I honestly don’t think they sound 2.5x better than the JFBs I put on the 2012.
