I forget the name of the shop, but they're right off 360 by the Victorian Square shopping center where VST used to be. They could probably do it.

not such a good idea.. especially in a RX7, those things seem to attract heating problems

It's right at Hull/Genito. Fat Boyee had an exhaust shop (tuffy I believe?) bend the intercooler piping for his 2.3T mustang. That might be something to check up on also.
