SF Bay area: Custom Exhaust Shop
 
Anyone can recommend an exhaust shop in the SF bay area that would be happy to do some custom exhaust work?

Thanks!

World Mufflers off El Camino in Sunnyvale has always been there for my needs. Pat is the owner, very affordable and honest work.

100% recommend "Burlingame Mufflers" in Burlingame, CA.

The owner is a genius and can literally do anything. A magician. An Alchemist.

Tell him Casey with the yellow s2000 sent you.

Prices are already amazingly reasonable.

Be sure to call ahead.

You can call out for Alex at Speedy Exhaust at Industrial pkwy W, Hayward! Amazing price and great guy! He is working on some design for my BRZ! He treats my car like his car. Very passionate guy! Tell him Kushal Recommended, just in case!

Cheers!

Phil @ Spoolin' Performance in San Jose

this guy works from 8am-10pm doing what he does best, welding and fabricating, his exhaust systems and turbo manifolds are some of the best i've seen

Yang auto repair shop in Oakland near Laney ignore the repair part lol he does everything with exhausts and repairs any exhaust problems or whatever

What's the difference between doing a custom versus manufactured exhaust? What's the price difference between one of these guys and a Borla, for instance? Performance difference? Sound difference?

Lotus Talk forums ;)

Used

jjdrivesajazz 05-10-2013 12:34 PM

wow that diffuser looks great

asia_minor 05-10-2013 01:01 PM

i can also vouch for Pat at World Mufflers in Sunnyvale.

This post and @sw20kosh's awesome center exit/rear diffuser setup made me seek out the services of Dan at Burlingame Mufflers as well.

I wanted to have my headerback exhaust changed into a cat-back system, and that is exactly what I got.

I love shops like this where it's clear the owner is passionate about cars, and enjoys talking about them. I also liked that I could get under the car with Dan to discuss what needed to be done and even assist where I could, like with the finicky overpipe headshields.

Highly recommend Burlingame Mufflers for anyone looking for custom exhaust work/tweaks. Prices seem reasonable - the standard ~$100 an hour going rate.

If you go, make sure to ask Dan about his crazy rotary engine powered hot rod he's building! :clap:

Hate to bring this up, but I'm curious if other people went ahead and have had experiences getting a custom set up?

I'm running an aftermarket midpipe and just had a custom axle back section put together. I went to Minute Muffler in Dublin and explained what I wanted and the guy was able to do it no problem.
