These guys are A+. Great price. Watching him work on my exhaust was like watching a duck in water. I can't say enough great things about this shop. Highly Recommended.
Had them apply a catalytic converter to my 01’ honda crv. Car started running horrible immediately after, couldn’t figure out what was wrong. Took it to a mechanic shop, they found the cat had been completely broken up inside and clogged the exhaust system. They wont warranty it or give a refund. Good luck to anyone that gets a catalytic converter from them.
Fair warning, do not go here. Horrible service and shop. Talked to them on the phone about having some work done on my muffler. Drove an hour to receive their service and they denied me saying they actually don’t want to do work on my car. Horrible service. Waste of time and money.
Came here to get my Corsa X-Treme catback exhaust installed with an X pipe for my 99 Corvette, and these guys are fantastic to work with! Very knowledgeable, and even gave me some tips to improve the sound and performance of my car. Now my car sounds amazing! Definitely will be coming back here in the future!
This muffler shop is THE BEST!!! . . . quick clean work, including welding, at reasonable prices . . . I will ONLY go to this shop for muffler/exhaust work.
Elias is the best, have been going here for years, small shop in crappie neighborhood, but he does what he can with what is given to him...good guy...now at least he gets Wednesday off, lucky guy..
Tried to charge me 300$ for some simple welds that would have been 100$ and ontop of that they Tried to sell me a flowmaster single chamber for 250$ but it was only worth 70$ fucc outta here there bandits ???
Elias and his team did a great job on my 04 G35 exhaust. I was missing an extension piece for my exhaust so I wasn’t sure if they were able to make it work. But Elias reassured me that he can get it done. Very professional, honest, and great pricing. Would recommend to anyone needing exhaust/muffler work.
Class act of employees, they checked my catylac converter and was advised it didnt need replacing, you will get honest answer here. Recomend 100%
Buen servicio al cliente, aqui no lo van a robar, 100% honestos!!!!!!!!!
I came here to check the muffler in a truck, they where very friendly, very fast doing the repair and the price was very reasonable. Definitely recomend!!
In and out in under an hour. Had my OEM resonator swapped for a Vibrant 17930 for my MK7 GTI. They worked quickly and meticulously. No complaints at all. I checked a few different shops for quotes before coming here and this place gave me the best price I could find. Would definitely recommend stopping by here for your exhaust needs.
Just work on my BMW 135i coupe install new dual tip and cut out dual exhaust. They give me a Reasonable price and they are meticulously on their workmanship.
These guys are great and fast.
Parking is a bit crowded but service is good.
Another shop refused to service me because they didn't have a wire wheel.
These guys didn't have any problems, was done in 30 minutes.
Keep up the great customer service ??
I've been coming here for years since the guy with the honda hatchback used to work there know hes mgr at another shop but these guys are good people and have good pricing I put some ebay mufflers on my 370z but they wouldnt go on straight so they heated the pipes and fixed my problem thanks
If youwant it done right come here. This is my go to spot.i have a lowered car so I'm always breaking the hanger on my ride.Been coming here for couple years now even did an up grade on my exhaust system for an awesome deal.
Thank You,,, Elias and his guys Installed A Hitch on my Sport SUV... I would send anyone over there.....Service with a Smile.…. and Job done quick...?? Good Pricing... Good work!!
I'm so glad and happy with my wallet. ELIAS is an amazing worker. His customer services, prices, guarantee on labor-parts, no body can betting him. I took my Van with a funny and high noise. He replace the catalyst in about 1 hr. The noise was gone and the check engine light on was off too. I really recommend this shop. Don't wasted you time calling others shops. You will be happy to bring your problem to be fix here... thank you so much for a super job ELIAS. ;-))))))
Had a Catback Exhaust installed on my 2008 Volkswagen Jetta 2.5L and Elias did an amazing job! Gave me a really great price and had me in and out in less then an hour! Would highly Recommend for installs, mufflers or custom exhausts!
Just had catalytic converter work done and they did a great job! A lot of people put off having their damaged catalyic converter thinking that the only thing they have to worry about is the car not passing a smog check. This is wrong. Alex (the owner) explained to me (while going over a diagram of the catalyic converter and where its located in the car) that it can damage the o2sensors, and cause the buildup of pressure. He said its not a good idea to put off fixing the CC. He was very professional and the price was affordable.
Great place .change my catalizer converter fast.i took it to someone else and give me the wrong model for my car and got a ticket for it.this guy is honest and clear about the legal deals.
I went because my brakes were wearing down, the guy inspected my brakes for free and told me my brake pads had worn down to the rotor and were eating up the rotor. So he replaced my rotor and pads at a very good deal much better than going to Big O or any of the other big name places. I would go back again.
