Muffler Shops in Southbay/W. Los Angeles

Anybody got a recommendation for a good muffler shop in say, West LA, down towards the Bay area?

I want to get a resonator and a muffler put on, but I'll need some modifications made.

Origionally I thought I would wait until I got my Header too, but I'm getting impatient staring at the Supersprint Exhaust and Resonantor sitting in my warehouse.

He Drex;

You mentioned that you knew two, but you didn't say the names or location.

I had wanted to get it done before the GTG, but that is not going to happen, so I'll likely do it next week.

Can you send me the addys?

Oh. Didn't know that you wanted to have it done before the meet this weekend. I have an email into my cousin about the place he got his exhaust done.

The other place is also in the valley. It's called Lionheart Automotive. The number is 818-782-2062. It's on Sepulveda north of Sherman Way, but I'm not positive about the address because they moved since the last time I went to them. The person you want to speak with is Chris. I don't think he'll remember me by name, cuz he only recognizes me when I see him in person. They used to be next door to the body shop that I go to, so that's how I know them. They did a custom exhaust on an M3 e36 a few years back that sounded really nice. If you are free during the day today and/or tomorrow, they could probably get this installed for you before the meet.

Its so tough trying to put the fire out on wanting to get the Muffler and Resonantor installed. I have been swamped at work, so I doubt I can make it up north for the install. I guess I'm going to have to get it next week. Besides, everyone says you don't get hp out of the muffler and resonantor swap.

If you need it done fast, you should go to Advance Tire & Muffler in Long Beach. They have all the materials and equipment like a mandral bender. Tell them an EF1 customer sent you and he'll hook you up. I think the guy's name is Darren.
