| Recommend a muffler/welding shop
I need to get some resonators welded on to my X pipe for my Z.
Please recommend some shops that would cut and weld resonators onto my existing X pipe.

i dont know why everyone says muffler man. I've brought 2 cars there. Yes they're cheap, but terrible welds, they try to take short cuts like weld stuff when its still on your car. Not a shop i would return to.

^hmm, i will take that into consideration, I'm planning to bring it to overseas auto because they say they install it as well, and make the pipe, Excellent customer service, although I haven't brought my car in yet. Very helpful though.

Your best bet is probably Muffler Tech in PoCo. Although the owner, Ryan, is a bit of a cock, the work they do there is top notch. They've done exhaust systems on a few of my cars, and I've been 100% happy with each one.

You're in Surrey? Go see Butch at Butches Brake and Muffler on King George Highway. He does a lot of custom work I'm sure he could do whatever you want. He did my RX7 for me about 12 years ago and been going to him ever since. He also did the side mounted exhaust on my dads race car.
If you're looking for someone who deals in cash under the table he isn't the guy though.

The thing I like about butches is he doesn't do work that doesn't need to be done to run up the bill. Thats not to say there aren't other good shops out there, Newton Auto care is actually really good as well. The owner Ken is super nice and very honest, hard to find shops like that now a days.

I had my exhaust done at Butch's about 5 years back and I was very well taken care of and the pricing was decent too.

Butchs did a great work on my exhaust... at first he said he will finish my work in 3hours, ended up 6hours, but only charged me 3hours. Very good service.
