Help! Need muffler shop to install Power Pipe in Bay Area

Anybody in the bay area, CA have Mikes Power Pipe on their car? Which shop did you take it to that does good work? Since it requires cutting and welding I want to make sure that the shop does a great job... Any help is appreciated!!

Where in the bay area are you? South bay? East bay? Let us know and I'll offer a couple of options I know a great shop in Dublin that did a fantastic job welding in my dual cutouts. Also, Sounds of Speed in Santa Clara did work on two of my previous cars and were nice guys.

Golden Gate muffler in Daly city is pretty good. 50/50 muffler in redwood city, Burlingame muffler in Burligame.

Probably because DMV paid them a visit. Quite possibly because of public recommendations.

People don't realize it is illegal. Federal & state
Paying them to do something illegal may be conspiracy
And CA is probably the strictest

Calling on the phone is not good
They don't know who you are, might be a set up

Show up and just ask if you are good with the criminal aspect of it
