Any good muffler/welding shops in Orange County, Ca?

Hey guys...I'm about to get a new muffler. I was just wondering if you know of any good muffler shops in Orange County, Ca (Southern Cali) that does a good clean install. I have seen a couple muffler shops, but their work is shotty...(like using metal coat hangers as weld material...what kinda cr@p is that?)

Anyhow, it shouldn't be too much to weld the muffler and mount it, I'm assuming. But let me know if there are any good places that do a clean install.

Thank you in advanced.

where in orange county are you, there is a good one in FV i believe, i just don't remember the name. And are they really using metal hangers as welding material? Or are they just using thin wire?

I got mine done at MIDAS. They did a great job for me. Check out the pics. Yeah, what part of Orange County are you in?
I'm in Temecula, if you know where that is, you'd be the first one on the board.

i know where temecula is, got a few friends that use to live out there.


Also, do you care about mandrel pipe bending or not? Cause midas doesn't do that.

Cool...

Temecula? Yeah, I know exactly where it is...of the 15S...right next to Pechanga and Pala Casino...hahahahah

And yes...I've seen some use a coat hanger... grrrr....

How much was the MIDAS Weld job? I'm thinking of having a shop weld on a bent pipe with a flange (spelling is probably wrong) at the end so that I can make it a bolt on muffler.

Re: Cool...

Well I have dual exhaust, so it cost me $280 for all the piping and installation. ($140 each) So yours shouldn't be too much.
