Good Muffler Shop in NOVA area?

Orion4 · 12-24-2011, 11:09 PM

I need to have some work done on my 08 335 exhaust. Original owner did a muffler delete. Love the black tips, but i suffer on long trips with the drone btn 1900-2300 rpm.

Does anyone have any recommendations for a reputable shop in the Centreville/Chantilly area?
Thanks,
Woody

Benchmade proper. No other. Search here for my threads on them.

Orion4 · 12-27-2011, 03:24 PM

I will give Benchmade a call tomorrow. Thanks.

Go to Piper Motorsport in Sterling!!! They have done a whole bunch of the m3 guys exhaust work! Ask for Robbie and he'll set you up

Left a call for Piper and talked to Joe at Benchmade. Will probably stop in there tomorrow to let him take a look at what is best approach to reduce the drone. I know I'll never get away from all of it since it's an AT.

Benchmade (Joe and Brian) installed a couple of very nice Vibrant Ultra Quiet Resonators with 2.5" inlet/outlets yesterday morning.

Looks absolutely top-notch! Their work with the new tubing and retaining my JLewis 4'' black powder coated tips was very well done. AND the sound is much better with most of the annoying drone significantly suppressed!

Thanks to both Joe and Brian and Boom for the recommendation.

Trying to get more up to date information.

I heard Benchmade move out of the area and Piper is closed on weekends, so any recommendations for a place where I can install a PE exhaust on a 328? (PS. I called HiFlo and they're on vacation this week)

Look up Xzibita (forum name), Scott....his shop does custom and regular exhaust work. they're in Chantilly, Va.

I did an exact search, that's why I couldn't find him at first. His username is "xzibit a".

Thanks, appreciate it. Looks like they are closed Saturday though.

Bobby actually doesn't work here anymore, But id be glad to help. just let me know. 703 968 6648 is the shops number.

We are closed Saturdays, however we do have loaner cars. You could drop the car off in the morning and then take a loaner car to work and come back in the evening on your way home.

I'm on the fence about getting the PE exhaust so what are options on exhaust mods for the 335i that these places are able to do? I don't have any mods other than intake and I don't want anything that resembles the sound of a shit can driving down the street.
