Pepe at Hi Flow in Long Beach is awesome--- he has done work on my last 3 AMG's (sans the Black): 2010 E63, 2012 E63 Wagon, and 2012 CLS63. His welding is awesome, pricing is great, and fitment and speed of work is top notch.

Well I called AAA today at 820am to confirm for my car, guy said come in at 10am. So I drove 45min to get there. When I arrive he tells me he can't do anything for 2hours , he got busy. Arrrgh so frustrating . Guess I'm never going there again. So my search continues for a proper muffler shop.

I called Reseda mufflers & few others shops, none of them carry stainless steel. I've heard to only use stainless steel for the pipes with a resonator delete. All these shops only have "galvanized"

I took mine to OC muffler man, he did a really clean job from what I was told and it was pretty cheap.

I made an appointment for this Saturday at Super Tuning in Van Nuys. I am going to get the 2ndary cats removed. I will report back. The guy there has gotten great reviews and has worked on a bunch of C63's and other really high end cars.
