Anyone know of any good muffler shops or places that to exhaust work in the socal area.. that know minis and know what there doing? pleease i need help!!! if anyone could shed some light and give me references to place

thank you all!!!

 

I dont know how far bakers field is from you but I recommend

Bobs muffler
1230 E. 21st Street
Bakersfield, CA 93305

As to knowing minis, you need an exhaust shop that also knows how to tune etc to help you decide what to go with.

 

whoaaa, bakersfield is a long haul from west covina. almost 2 hours

 

Thats nothing for a mini. Ive had guys drive half the state (4hrs) for me to work on their car. Heck, even some from out of state!

You want good work at times you have to go the extra mile. They have a mandrel bender there, thast why i recommended them.

 

at the rate of gas prices in southern california im sure the OP could find something closer

i personally don't know of any places around west co.
might wanna call minicorsa in van nuys or steve's auto clinic in northridge for recommendations.

btw-exhaustdepot, not trying to butt heads with ya

 

Nah man I dont take it like that at all. Yeah you should know more than I do cause im on the other side of teh country. Just putting out people that i know who seam pretty decent. ANother one is http://www.alliedmuffler.com/

Talk to Danny at Fast Intentions (Northridge). He was with LaBree Motorsports and left to start his own exhaust shop. While at Labree, he built my custom no muffler exhaust for my S4 wagon and I loved it. I've talked to him about the MINI. He's a really nice, helpful guy.

Not that many muffler shops these days are too familiar with performance exhausts. They mostly just do stock replacements. That being said I have have had some really good custom exhausts done by the following shop. He has a very good understanding of performance and has reasonable prices.
