A good reputable exhaust shop in the San Diego area


alright guys hopefully someone here can help me out, i got 2 thrush welds mufflers in the boxes sitting in my trunk. Ive been looking for a good shop to install them however i havent had much luck. Ace Muffler (one of the the best reviewed shops here in san diego) quoted me $500 bucks for materials and labor . So my question is do any of my fellow Southern Cali guys know were i can get these installed without getting ripped off?

Are you single pipe now? $500 is steep, but if you are having them make you an H-Pipe it's not BAD...

yea to just run straight piping with mufflers shouldn't cost more than $100-$150 if you already have the mufflers.

Well If you're mechanically inclined you can do this.

Gibson Performance Exhaust 500409 - Gibson Stainless Steel Slash Tips - Overview - SummitRacing.com turndowns (if just doing dumped exhaust)

Or you could go over to Foxfire 5.0 in Vista after 2012 hits and see if they could do something for you... and if you go on Friday or Saturday ask for Joker, tell him Garrett referred you over there...He's got a pretty sweet cammed H/C/I sixxer puttin down 250 rwhp.
