| Post subject: | Quality exhaust work in Scarborough |
Greetings everyone, My exhaust was hanging a bit low after hitting a few extreme pot holes. The clamps must not have been tight enough after removing the muffler and re-installing it after changing a fuel pump several months ago. I took my car to Thruway Muffler at 2583 Eglinton Ave. I asked them to see if they could re-adjust the system and tighten the clamps? They said the "right way" to do the job was th re-hang the system at the back, remove the clamp and weld in a small exention to replace the clamp. Before they start the job I ask the muffler technician if he's aware that the car has a stainless steel exhaust from front to back and he says "I know it does, it's not problem. I will fix it right". Who am I to argue with the "right way" to do things? I get home and find out that they welded a mild steel patch into a stainless steel exhaust system. When I went back to Thruway, the excuses were "We don't stock stainless steel pipe" and "We're a universal muffler repair shop and don't work with stainless". I asked both the manager and the technician if they owned a car like mine with a complete stainless exhaust, would they weld in a stainless or mild steel patch? Neither had anything intelligent to say. They could have ordered the pipe. They offered to re-weld the patch if I bring them the stainless steel pipe. Another problem is the technician left the center pipe way to low and it bottems out on just about everything. I was promised the exhaust system would be hung correctly. Sorry buy I can't trust anything they say after this last experience. Can anyone recommend a good exhaust place in Scarborough that can do things right? Not asking for cheap. I'm asking for good quality workmanship please? Thanks in advance, Ken |

Go to Noyz Boyz in Scarborough. They do custom exhaust and are great to deal with. |

Thanks Pomp. You joined in 2009 and this question brought out your first post? You must do a lot of reading and very little talking. I feel privileged. What are you driving Pomp? Thanks again, Ken |

It does so with complete exhaust including cats. It passes the E-test with flying colors. |

My car is at Noyz Boyz. They are 5 minutes from my home. They are on the ball. The exhaust leak that everyone else said I had, was actually a loose spark plug. They are removing the mild steel patch and replacing it with stainless as well as re-hanging the exhaust closer to the chassis. I'm also having new spark plugs installed. The car is supposed to be ready later today. Report at 6:00. News and weather at 11:00. Thanks, Ken |

Noyz Boyz did a good quality job and the price was more than fair. Some said the miss was a lifter noise. Others said an exhaust leak. Jameel at Noyz Boyz found a loose spark plug within 5-minutes of examining the car. They installed new spark plugs and car has never run smoother. They have earned a repeat customer today. Cheers, Ken |
