Looking for a custom exhaust shop in Kansas City? Whether you want a deeper sound, more horsepower, or a full custom build, choosing the right shop matters. At American Fusion Wheels in Shawnee, KS, we build and install exhaust systems for trucks, Jeeps, muscle cars, and performance vehicles every day.
Types of Exhaust Work We Do
Cat-Back Exhaust Systems
The most popular upgrade. A cat-back system replaces everything from the catalytic converter back — mid-pipe, muffler, and tips. Gives you a deeper, more aggressive sound plus 5-15 HP gains. Brands: Borla, MagnaFlow, Flowmaster, MBRP, Gibson.
Axle-Back Exhaust
Replaces just the muffler and tips. Easiest install, most affordable upgrade. Perfect for drivers who want a sound change without going full cat-back. Starting at $300 installed.
Muffler Delete
Removes the muffler entirely for maximum volume. Not for everyone, but popular on trucks and muscle cars. We weld a straight pipe section with proper hangers so nothing rattles. Starting at $150.
Full Custom Fabrication
Mandrel bends, stainless steel, dual conversion, true dual setups — we build from scratch. We weld stainless and aluminized steel, bend custom pipe, and build complete systems from turbo-back to axle-back.

Kansas vs Missouri Exhaust Laws
Kansas: No emissions testing. You have more freedom to modify your exhaust, including muffler deletes and cat-back systems.
Missouri: Jackson, Clay, and Platte counties require emissions testing. Catalytic converters must remain intact on MO-registered vehicles in the KC metro.
