Planning to get quads on my car but not sure which shop to go to, anyone know a good place? Also, I will have the M5 rear on soon but does both have to be installed on the same day? or will my stock exhaust hit the and melt the bumper? Please help, thanks!

...not to sound like a broken record... but check out SonicMS in Mountain View (1045 West El Camino Real)... ask for Darwin - when I am ready for my quads, I'll be going to them...

Once upon a time it had chrome wheels... 'til i joined this forum :)
freed0m recommended Tri-Valley Muffler in some other thread. Had mine installed there and it was all positive. I think it was about a hundred bucks to install my BB plus another hundred for the resonator.

Yup, the man over there is George, awesome dude and very nice. I got my custom straight pipe done there as well, but it was the previous owner who did the work before George took over. Still a great place. It's RIGHT next door to Edge Motorworks.

Thanks, I'll check out Tri Valley. I was initially going to go to SonicMS, just wanted to see what other places would be mentioned. Anyone know the number/ Address to Tri Valley?

+100 Tri-Valley Muffler in Dublin is the place to go. Good professional people, excellent results, and price is very reasonable too
George worked on my RD Sport exhaust on my DINAN 5 and they will be doing the Eisenmann Race exhaust for my M6 as well.
Uzzle, ping me or Torque5 when you are in Dubland; we can hook up and hit the Hooters right down the street from the shop.
