    This is THE place to get some custom exhaust work done. I've had two cars done here and have been completely satisfied with the end result. From wild to mild, they do it all. The last project bought me some good tone and also increased my mpg!

    This place looks awesome! They had some cool vehicles there as well as your normal day to day stuff. My truck is registered out of state so they could not help me fix my exhaust issues they said due to it not conforming to the laws in the great state of Commufornia but I would definitely recommend them to anyone who does not have a out of state car. Very polite as well.


    Update- I got a different vehicle and needed some exhaust work so I went back and these guys are amazing. Fast service, no bs, good prices. Thank you guys! Your awesome.

    If you’re looking for an upgrade to your exhaust/muffler, look no further. The Ed Hanson team blew my expectations out the water.

    They are efficient, timely, and are more than willing to listen to suit your needs.


    I went in to get a cat back exhaust and Magnaflow muffler and they did an outstanding job. Would highly recommend if you’re in the local area or traveling from afar to get work done to your vehicle!
