good muffler shop in SoCal?
Hey there folks, i went ahead and ordered an exhaust system from Aaron at Beluga Racing and wanted to find a place to install it. i have no equipment whatsoever nor do i plan on doing it myself. I went around to a local muffler guy near me and he gave me a price of 120 dollars even after i told him how easy of an install it would be, im currently in the burbank area so any suggestion not too far would be appreciated Thank you!.

120 sounds around the ball park, I just came back from Fantasy Muffler in fullerton to get my exhaust retighten, the owner and worker were both very nice and they fixed my exhaust rattles free! Maybe you can try there. They are on the corner of Western and Auto Center Drive. Use google to find their info.
IIRC, I paid $100 for another shop to install my exhaust. Burbank is a bit out of the way so im sure some members in that area can help direct you to a good shop. Last edited by Zbrah; 12-06-2013 at 08:46 PM. |

$100-$120 for a bolt on exhaust to be put on?? Come on now...spend 45 mins under the car get some grease on those hands and save yourself some money. Spend $50 bucks on a set of ratchets and be able to say you put on your own exhaust. Just my opinion don't wanna sound like a d*** or anything if it seems like it.

Yea true. Forgot all about getting the car in the air. Im still new to cars and stuff so I only know how to do a few things but I personally like saying "yea I put it on myself". Just that personal satisfaction and bonding time you get with your baby lol

You wouldn't fk it up lol exhaust are so easy to hang lol as long as you can use a wrench and get it in the hangers your golden. Plus there's plenty of how tos out there. But I totally understand not wanting to fk it up and be screwed whereas a shop messes up and they pay for the fix

Dang that's a steal! I'm looking at the Top Speed Track Spec Dual Performance CBE but I can't find that many reviews on it so idk if it's worth getting. Looking for a cheaper priced loud catback under 1G or just a louder axle back under 1G.
