Exhaust is the work this shop is named for. A loud car is usually a cheap fix caught early and an expensive one left alone, so we trace the leak from the manifold back rather than replacing the costly part first.
Direct-fit replacements where they exist and custom bends where they do not.
The joints and isolators that rust through first and cause most of the rattles and drone.
Tested before replaced. A converter is an expensive part and it is not always the one at fault.
Sections fabricated and welded in place when a full assembly would cost you more than the repair is worth.
Usually. If the rest of the system is sound we cut out the failed section and weld in new pipe rather than selling you an assembly.
Only if it has actually failed. We test before recommending one, because it is the single most expensive part in the system.
On most vehicles, yes, the welding is done here.
Much less than people expect when it is caught early, because a blown joint or a rotted hanger is a weld rather than a part. It only gets expensive once a section has rusted through and has to be replaced. We put it on the lift, show you what has gone, and quote the repair before we start cutting.
No. Michigan requires a working muffler that keeps the vehicle at or under the legal noise limit, so a delete is a ticket waiting to happen and an emissions problem on top of it. If you are after a deeper note, ask us about a performance muffler that is still street legal.
Walk-ins welcome six days a week. The inspection is free whether or not you have the work done.
