Customer Reviews

I WILL DEFINITELY RECOMMEND ANYONE TO COME HERE

I left with a big smile on my face as I drove away, and my car purred, and growled when I needed it to. The exhaust sounds awesome. I will definitely recommend anyone to come here. Did I mention that the price was right too?! I can't believe I hadn't gone to them before. Thank you guys!

I REALLY APPRECIATE THEIR SERVICE I WILL BE BACK

I went to budget muffler and brakes today to get an alignment after getting tires at Noah's. These are great guys running this place very thorough and professional I had to wait a little while but the alignment was an expensive and I really appreciate their service I will be back.

DID GREAT WORK ON MY CAR

Such a great experience, took my car in, and it was out in 2 hours for a custom exhaust. The owner was friendly and so was the crew. Did great work on my car and the prices ain’t that bad either! definitely will be going there for future car things

Extensive Inventory of OEM & Brand Name, Aftermarket Parts

In addition to our large inventory of common stock parts, we also maintain a huge selection of performance exhaust parts. Investing in a performance exhaust system generally increases a vehicle's horsepower, performance, and fuel efficiency, and can give you the precise sound you are looking for, whether you want something quiet or want to get a premium "muscle" sound. We carry leading brands, such as MagnaFlow, Flowmaster, Flowsound, Eliminator, Corsica, and Street Flo, which offer you everything from single-chamber racing mufflers to quiet-performance mufflers. In addition, we can modify most exhaust systems with custom headers, cold-air intake systems, and single, dual, stainless steel, and colored tips.
