RPM took care of a 2019 Chevy Tahoe for me and they were fantastic. They were able to put on multiple mufflers so i could listen each one and ultimately choose the one I wanted. Great service, very friendly, reasonable prices. I absolutely recommend talking to these guys.

Had some work done to my f-150, front upper, lower arms and break pads. Michele in the front was a very nice lady. Tyler one of the techs suggested some ideas and we came thru with them. Couples days after I had some doubts I took my truck back and they didn t hesitate to check it out. It turns out everything was well and it was just my overthinking of something being wrong or the noise I heard just happened to stop. Anyways really well organized team all the way around and very responsive.Service: Steering & suspension repair

I waited almost a month to post this review as I didn t want the new shinny thing excitement to impact my opinion.Well it didn t matter - still as happy the day I picked it up as today.I was looking for something very specific and had to call numerous shops to find it: Mandrel bent TIG welded 304SS. Most shops don t do this but RPM does.Nic at front office was fantastic all the way through. His estimate aligned with the fabricator s actual quote once he took a look.Nic texted me a picture on request of the progress.It was completed on time and it is absolutely beautiful. Looks as good as it sounds and the truck absolutely RIPS.04 Tundra 4.7L w TRD Supercharger - needed some help in the form of 2.5 dual exhaust w x pipe and a dump over the axel; RPM delivered big time.Nic and crew were top notch; any future exhaust work is coming here no questions asked operation is nothing but professionals.Thanks RPM!

Did great and did some clean work at a good price. Swapped my exhaust out and made it look factory and sound like a menace to society!

These guys are on . I came in for an exhaust leak. On my 2016 Nissan Altima 2.5. They pinpointed it right away! And recommended welding for my aftermarket exhaust system that had rusty clamps. No more leak! Replaced parts, and never better! Ron is the man! Richard's wife was very helpful and courteous as well. Service is fast, efficient, and professional. This is my shop for life! Thanks! I was able to get back to work as a rideshare driver same day!

I'll give my visit 5 stars because they were straight forward, honest, and reasonably priced. I was recommended this location by an engine builder in my network so I wanted to give them a try. The job was to create or mimic a wastegate dumptube with a stainless steel option, matching a broken weld design. On a arrive and inspection the broken weld, they were able to fix the current tube at a great price that took maybe about 20 minutes max. Great work overall. I recommend this location. I am curious what I new dumptube would look like but for now, I am happy with the service. Photo for reference.

Just left the shop and I just had to post a review. My mount on my flag pole had a crack and eventually broke my pole off, I spent weeks trying to find a solid place to go to. After reaching out to a buddy, he suggested me to call Richard up and see what he can do. I called, spoke with Richard and came in a few hours later. He took me immediately and hooked me up with a brand new mount! I didn t expect him to even take me in since it s not something they really do but the fact that he still took me in and got it done the same day was seriously 5 star worthy. I ve gotten my exhaust done at another shop and now I m mad I just stumbled upon his company when I should ve been here from the beginning. Amazing service, great work, friendly staff.. what more could you ask for?

A couple months ago, I came to get some long tube headers installed. To begin with, once I picked it up there was problem with the brakes. Nobody said anything or even thought it was an issue. I had to go back in the garage to remedy it, and thankfully one of them was quick to help. Fast forward a few weeks I go to a dyno shop and was informed that whoever installed my headers broke a knock sensor and didn t inform you. So I had to drive around for almost a month with a broken sensor and would ve never known had the dyno shop been so helpful.RPM is a solid shop; they ll get you in and out, but can be very spotty at times with the finer details.

Excellent customer service and way more than just a muffler shop. They solved my trailer problem and did it fast and for a great price. It also looks like off-road vehicles is one of their specialties.

I was referred to this company and was told they do some top quality work as well as really try and help the customer out. I called after getting off work and said if I can make it in 10 minutes they will fit me in. Not only did they fit me in at 4:00pm they were done within 45 minutes changing my muffler. They are great people and a great shop. Definitely recommend them for any exhaust needs.Service: Exhaust

The guys at RPM have done 2 of my Mustangs and every time they ve done an incredible job. The staff is incredibly efficient, honest, and kind. The work there has always been top tier and done efficiently. On multiple occasions they ve given me calls whilst a job was being done to confirm which routes I wanted to go with when it came to parts I may have needed or were recommended to me so that there were no surprises or additional costs I wasn t aware of. Highly recommend RPM for any of your exhaust needs. I was referred by a friend for my first car, and plan on referring more of my friends to them in the future.Service: Exhaust

Took my E46 in for a muffler delete and was in and out within two hours. Best price around and craftsmanship looks great. Definitely worth it, would visit again.

So I have taken my '09 Chevy HHR here twice to get my flex pipe fixed. The first visit I was in and out within an hour, and was charged about $200. The second visit things were a little bit more but only because of the additional parts that needed to be done to my car. That visit I had replaced the front and back mounts, the flex pipe, as well as the cat. converter needed to be replaced due to warping. The wait was a little longer than the first time. They do operate as "first come first serve". I have not had any issues with any of the work that they have done. And their customer service is friendly and straight to the point. I do plan to continue to bring my car here, as well as recommend those close to me, that have similar issues with their car.

I went by this morning to have my muffler checked. I had a rattle, and a mechanic had recommended this place.I waited for 1 hour, and then left. I was never given any indication of how long it might take. I will not go back.On the other hand, the person was professional and my guess is they would do quality work.

I used RPM in a pinch when a water tank cross beam weld joint was found broken and hanging on our newly purchased travel trailer. I was referred by a regular customer whom swears by them and suggested we use them for quick trailer repair work. They did a great job, were comminicative, timely, reasonably priced and can fabricate/fix just about anything with quality work to boot. Highly recommend!! Will definitely use them again if other metal work pops up.

My work van that is 20+ years old needed a new catalytic converter. Is was not performing as it should so I had the guys at RPM preform a test that confirmed is was starting to fail. They were able to get me back on the road quickly and back to work. Thank you to the guys at RPM.Service: ExhaustService: Exhaust
