Looking through the reviews for a good, honest and highly professional exhaust shop? Look no further, these guys are the best and I'll never take my cars anywhere else for top notch service at amazing prices. This is how business used to be done and these guys haven't forgotten that. Simply the best!

Big thanks to Jim at South Coast Muffler! He expertly fixed my used Mustang, which had a poorly self-installed aftermarket muffler. It was hanging too low and was secured with clamps, causing issues. Jim repositioned in place and welded it perfectly, no more hitting on bumps. If you buy an aftermarket muffler have it professionally installed. Rock-solid work at the right price!

My 41 Chevy needed new block header collectors redone. I've been going to South Coast for many years. Never disappointed. Always first class service from excellent professional and extremely great people. I had my appointment,dropped off my car and before I could say the alphabet the car was finished. If you need work done go to this place. I've recommending all the Marines I know who need great work to go there. They are the best. Again thank you South Coast Muffler-Hitch.

I called & spoke with John about replacing the headers & rusted out dual exhaust on my '70 Chevelle SS. John told me they could handle the header installation & gave me a set price for that + the exhaust. My old setup had an H-pipe for the crossover, John told me the better deal both sound & performance-wise was to go with an X-pipe. I said, do what you guys do & they did. His dad, Jim, walked me through some different muffler options & I left the car overnight. I've been driving it for a few months now & it sounds great & works as advertised. The quoted price was what I paid so no changes there which is always nice. Jim has an El Camino & Johnhas a '67 Chevelle, so that was a plus for me. I'd recommend these guys, they know what's up for the classic/muscle-car crowd.

I took my CRV there this morning to get a new trailer hitch installed. They are great! Honest, reasonably priced, and did an excellent job. John is a real nice person. I loved their golden retriever also. I highly recommend this shop.

Oh my. Where to begin? John & Jim (father & son proprietors) are my heroes. In terms of expertise, quality of work, value, and TRULY EXCEPTIONAL CUSTOMER SERVICE, they are just absolutely stellar. Long story about CA emissions compliance: I naively purchased an out-of-state 1996 Ford truck for our son. It had been modified. I knew it might need some work in order to be compliant. Oh boy. After meeting with the smog station, I learned we now needed a catalytic converter and dual exhaust manifolds because the existing headers were not CA-legal. They did this work for me at a (very!) fair price, and were so nice to work with. Took it to the smog station and learned that A) our catalytic converter and manifolds were very high quality and installation was perfect, and B) we still needed an OEM air injection pump assembly in order to pass the visual inspection. Which was going to be a HUGE challenge to find. John immediately put his extensive network into action for me, and called me with updates and suggestions. Eventually, the needed parts were located and secured. When I took the parts to John & Jim/South Coast Muffler, they called my smog guy to confirm that their proposed install plan would be compliant. They wanted to discuss it with him before doing any work and incurring any costs, to make sure that I was protected and they were doing the right thing. The smog guy was very impressed at how they went above and beyond, and so was I. This business is did incredible work for our family, going WAY above and beyond on many fronts, to make sure that we were taken care of and everything was right in a very complex and challenging situation because of CA requirements. We are so grateful, and HIGHLY RECOMMEND.

I was referred here by a friend and I am MORE than satisfied with their above and beyond customer service, their promptness and efficiently. The owner Jim absolutely made my entire year with how well he took care of my truck and getting exactly what I wanted done and went above and beyond to help. I would recommend this shop to anyone and everyone hands down. Their speed and efficiency and friendliness and overall demeanor make this an excellent shop.Service: Exhaust

I highly recommend south coast muffler & welding. After struggling to get my car to pass smog due to one bad cat (I have 2), a friend mentioned he had exceptional service at SCM&W with two of his cars getting cats replaced. I called and spoke with John, he told me to bring my car in and was able to give me a quote within a couple minutes. when I brought my car back for repair, John called to let me know that I had already replaced that same cat. He wanted to make sure that they were taking care of the correct problem. As it turns out, it had been over six years since my last replacement. I really appreciated the call as I'm sure most other places would've just replaced it without double checking. I had my car back within four hours and was able to pass smog!!! I would go back to these guys in a heartbeat!!!
