Reputable Welding/Exhaust/Header shop in Socal Orange County?
Hey guys, does anybody know a good/reputable custom exhaust shop around Orange County, CA? I know there's a custom exhaust shop in Irvine Auto Center, but want to see if anybody has experience with them. I'm looking to do what many people have done to their DC header (enlarged and stronger flex tube).

I got my exhaust stuff on my old civic done at Welding works in Orange. I didn't have any problems except for when the exhaust started melting my bodykit paint. I went back and they adjusted it for free.

There is a shop named Ballingers (sp?) or Bellengers (sp?) across the street from you. The owner/operator is named Scott. I've long since misplaced his business card so I don't have telephone numbers for you. He is behind Vision Motorsport, if those Porsche guys are still there. It's been a few years since he custom fab'd a three inch exhaust for my K26 turbo'd Audi. He does outstanding work and is meticulous. From recollection, he did custom brackets for Saleen and worked on the Isuzu Team's off-road desert racers. Hope this helps. Cheers-

lucky dogg: thanks for the feedback dood, i'll check them out this weekend.
shaang: this might sound dumb, but where is Hytech?
My DC header doesnt come with any new bolts or gaskets, anybody got suggestions where I can get them? I was thinking directly from DC Sports headquarter next to Eibach Springs....

^^ Are you going to get this done soon? I'm thinking about the Topspeed SS header and doing the mod before installing it but it won't be until mid November.

I'm getting the header tonight, but too busy this coming 2 weeks. I'll shoot you a pm, then we can work out a time to go together, maybe get a discount on labor while we're at it
