Hello to all!

I just purchased a Valvetronic Exhaust and I’ve been calling several shops to see if they are able to install and most of them have said no. I’m located in OC (Santa Ana CA) and I was wondering if any of you guys may know a shop. I called SSR PERFORMANCE and they are charging me $550. Just wanting to see any other places you guys may know. Thank you all!

I went to IKONIC AUTO GARAGE to install my MAD exhaust. My experience was very good they had it done the same day and good price. They are a little away form OC tho in noho.

Not sure what the hourly rate in your area is but $550 for an exhaust is too much.

its going to take 1 hour for the install, some shops will charge 1.5 or even 2. with an hourly rate of $150 , your max should be $300

I wouldn’t be so sure on how much the hourly rate is here. I called another shop and they are charging $650 due to the wiring that’s needed for the valves.

Yeah, 2 hours is usually avg for our exhaust but we went for the oem valve option. Wiring always makes shops hesitant if they haven't done it before.

European auto source in OC is good for exhaust installs. They charged me like $300 for my install that had valvtronic wiring and what not.

That's a fair rate
