Saw your post. These guys installing my borla pipes tomorrow. One of the nicest cleanest shops I've seen. The pedigree of cars they had in their along with the reviews make me feel like I'm making the right choice for these guys to do the work. Will update tomorrow.

How was the work? I'm actually looking at doing some Borla Cat Backs for my C7.

First off, I have to preface this with I never like anyone to work on my car but me. I was hesitant for anyone's to be working on my baby so I did a lot of research and scouting these guys before I chose to let them do the work. Their yelp alone is a perfect rating with tons of reviews.

With that said, I would give these guys/shop the highest praise any mechanic shop can get. It's a two person outfit. Jon and Mitch. Their shop was so organized and filled with hot rods and other cars of value. They are truly car guys, no bullshit dudes. We chatted a lot and they showed me the projects they are working on while I was their. They have a waiting room with huge windows where you can watch them work on your car not even 10 feet from where your sitting. Many times they let me take a walk under the rack to see things under my vette.

What impressed me the most was how they took their time to do the job right and neatly. There was never any pressure and they called it as they see it. By the time I left I felt I made some cool friends and I would let them work on my baby anytime.

They did negotiate the price with me and it was fair. Not the cheapest I found but the comfort and knowledge of knowing that quality people were working on my car and doing it right was well worth the compromise. I plan to go back to them for anything I may need help with in the future.

I highly highly recommend.

***sidenote I was looking to do cat back borla as well. I already have the performance exhaust. I decided to start with a borla xpipe. YouTube clips don't do it justice but it really wakes up the car when you get in the throttle. Absolutely a gain in volume but nothing crazy. Enough for someone to notice. This is what the car should have sounded like out the factory. Get the nice burple sounds as well if you're into that. It's a good start for $450 bucks instead of $2k. I figured if I wanted more I'd add the cat back later. But for now this sounds way good enough.

I wanted to see if there any other recommendations or recent installs with feedback, specifically for a C7. Looking to install a Corsa cat back system.
