Looking for recommendation on a reputable shop to buy and install an exhaust system. Anyone?

SonicMS is great, ask for Darwin

Edge Motor Works in Dublin. Best pricing & high Yelp ratings. They won't rape you. They specialize on BMWs and Minis. I have an appointment with them to redo my KW v3 set-up at a reasonable price. http://www.yelp.com/biz/edge-motorworks-dublin-3

I also heard Borelli Motorsport in San Jose is another reputable shop.

Minute Muffler in Dublin - Reasonably priced and high yelp ratings: http://www.yelp.com/biz/minute-muffl...#query:muffler

I had my M3 exhaust ACM modified there for only $150 same day. Awesome work.

Another vote for Sonic in Mountain View.

I've seen too many suspension horror stories on cars that have been to Sonic. With that said, you can't really install an exhaust wrong.

Sonic is good, dealt with them before for mounting lip, diffuser, and balancing/mounting tires.

Good looking out everyone. Will hit up one of these guys after the holidays.

Check out SpeedElement in San Jose.

Great group of guys and the only shop that really works on my car.

Miss aligned exhaust installation, not properly torqued clamps, exhaust leaks, exposed wires, cross-threaded O2 ... these are just a few that I can think of ...
