THIS IS BY FAR THE MOST HONEST PLACE, This guy protects the customer not his wallet (very rare) hes knowledgeable, walks you through whats best not like others trying to make quick money and do what they want. You want a good price,work and experience go here. I usually dont write reviews but Im the person that looks at them before I take or go to a place. Ask for Yan really friendly person.

Great work for the price, I was helped immediately upon arriving. The guys worked fast and efficient and made it a point to get me involved on how I wanted the exhaust and tips positioned. They advised me to keep my old mufflers which I agreed with. The sound the car makes now on cold start or in sport modes is amazing. I highly recommend this place.

Took in my 67 Triumph TR4a to get the exhaust sorted out. Moved everything around so it no longer rattles on the frame and made the muffler level. All for a very reasonable price. Was a great find.

Ive been driving for over 25 years and dealing with mechanics for just as long. If they were all as impressive as this guy, Id have fewer grey hairs. Hes honest, fast, friendly, and an amazing value. Id be a repeat customer, except he did it right the first time. Cannot recommend this place enough.

I had taken my car in this morning to have my catalytic converter installed after it was stolen from my Prius. The owner was extremely helpful and repaired my car in about 45 min. His prices are more than fair and he provides great service. He is honest and will be up front on what is required. I highly recommend this shop for auto repairs.

A muffler is a place for your resto mod hot rod or catalytic converter muffler needs. They do good and efficient work. And they do it at a decent price.

I had bought a Walker Muffler on Amazon and needed someone to do a swap on my broken one. So I came here and had a great experience. I was able to see them do the work and they were quick about it. They really are Express. I definitely recommend these services. Im 100 percent happy with the price, time, and explanation of what was done also what needs to be done concerning my exhaust. Will definitely come back for future services.

BEST PLACE EVER!I called 3 other places before him and he was drastically the cheapest. He also does his work right there so you can tell he does the work he is going to do in complete integrity. In addition, he is just friendly and great all around!I have been searching for a mechanic for life--found it

Great Prices Great Fast Service, very straight forward. Yan will show you the cost of parts online and will give you his labor cost. No funny business at all. The quality of his welding is unmatched.

I had some work done on an altenator, air conditioning and oil /filter change. The prices are fair and the work was done in a timely manner. However, I had to return three times on the air conditioner repair because it kept going out. There customer service waiting room had no air conditioner and no beverage dispenser which made for a miserable 45 minute wait.

Yan is the man... VERY affordable prices, we installed mufflers on a Saturday, by sunday me and my wife didnt like the way they were positioned, so we came back Monday and Yan was happy to redo the process to our liking for just a nominal fee...he is not out to charge extra for customers mistakes.. very honest worker, definitely recommend him, and will be coming back for future work.

I spoke at 8am to confirm if they were open and they soon kindly answered the phone. I arrived with my car at 8:30am, he inspected the car, detected the problem, welded the muffler and in 10 minutes it was outside. I paid $40 for the job and I am very happy with the service.
