Shop Recommendations for Catback Exhaust Install

Looking to get a catback for my 2nd gen. Don’t have a lift or tools and would rather have a shop do it. Any shop recommendations for peninsula and South Bay?

No direct modding experience with BRZ/FT/GR platform, but when I still had my Outback XT several years ago, I had pretty good service/maintenance experience with Garage One Subaru Workshop in Campbell (@ 2885 Winchester Blvd Suite A). According to their site, they do performance upgrades.

I've been following Mann Engineering in Santa Clara (@ 970 George St) for years. They had a 2013 BRZ project car and recently picked up a 2022 BRZ for parts R&D. Will most likely go with them once I get my car. They are by-appointment only and usually 1-2 months booked out.

I read through some of the forum threads, and some folks previously recommended The Driveway (San Jose), PM Autoworks (San Jose), and Auto Headquarter (Mountain View). I'm sure there are others out there.

Some links below:

Keep us posted on who you end up going to and what your experience is like.

I can vouch for RBMS auto in east bay. They work on subis and 86, went to them when racers line was backed up for my oil pickup install. One of the more reasonable hourly rates. Fast responses and they include photos in their exchanges but you can probably just wait there for an hour for just a cutback install

Ricky and his team at PMAutoworks would be my choice in the SB.
