Extremely quick turnaround, reasonable pricing and great people. My exhaust was installed by a local performance shop and the clamps kept loosening causing the exhaust to sag or touch the plastic diffuser. Carolina muffler got me squared away within a few hours and my exhaust is now fully welded so will not experience these problems anymore. Thanks so much for the quick and quality work! Even with the sway bar getting in the way of the Borla exhaust, the alignment on it looks much better and symmetrical

When I was looking to get my exhaust modified, I originally went to another shop, and found out they were 10 cars behind; as soon as I heard that I left, I had to get this exhaust done by the end of the day as I had no other free time to do so, and went to Carolina after scheduling an appointment. I was surprised by how fairly priced it was, thought there had to be some sort of additional cost involved on top of labor but nope, just taxes; and on top of that, it could be completed in the next couple of hours. Had my resonator cut off and fit with an X pipe, and muffler deleted. Only took a couple of hours, that really felt like 30 minutes because of how friendly and helpful the people are there. Frankie was very kind and I was very happy with the final product of the car, it sounds amazing now and looks 10x better with just a simple addition. Would recommend to all my friends if they want a place that is fair priced, time efficient and friendly. Thanks again Carolina Muffler and Brakes!

Was recommended this spot by a good friend to get some exhaust work done. One of the best experiences I have had in auto place like this ever. The whole team I would give 10 stars honestly from the Owner on down. Not only was their service amazing but the work they did and the price point are unbeatable in Charleston area. I’m 43 years old and they gave me the feeling of a little boy on Xmas morning hearing my truck start up!!!! Thanks again to the whole team and special thanks to Mrs. Franki (Manager) for just an amazing customer service experience!

I am blown away by the custom muffler job Carolina Muffler and Brakes did on my 2001 Ford F-150. The sound is absolutely PERFECT! Exactly what I was hoping for. Beyond the incredible result, the speed of service and the price were both amazing. They are truly experts at what they do. I would give them 10 stars if Google allowed it, but since the max is 5, they get a resounding 5 stars from me. Highly, highly recommend!

Had been calling around for a new muffler and pipe for my son’s 2000 Toyota Echo. The places I called either didn’t want to do it or had a “I hate my job.” attitude. I called Carolina Muffler and Brakes, and Frankie answered the phone promptly, was friendly, and seemed to truly want my business. To my surprise, he offered to fix it the next day!!! Pricing was fair, and he even made it secure and easy to drop-off/pick-up after hours. Top quality work at an affordable price that won’t leave you disappointed. Frankie, you have earned my business for future services as well!!! My son and I truly appreciate you and are very thankful!

Had an H-pipe and axle-back installed on my ’22 Mustang, and I couldn’t be happier with the outcome. Fair prices, fast and professional work — Carolina Mufflers really delivers. Thanks again!

Quick and efficient. I had my MBRP cat back system for my Tacoma installed here. They got me in the morning after I reached out about the install. Travis went over all the options with me and made sure they did it exactly how I wanted. Would definitely recommend!

These guys are great. They have very reasonable pricing imo considering they stayed an hour after closing to get me my car in a day. Can’t recommend them enough!

So thankful for Carolina Muffler & Brakes They saved the day! After driving over some rough roads, my rusty tailpipe snapped loose and was about to fall off! But they were so kind to be able to help me out. They were able to install a brand new shiny exhaust pipe with a very strong bracket install. They even helped save my vintage exhaust tip to reuse. Amazing! Everyone was so kind and helpful. Thank ya’ll!

I took my truck to another muffler shop and they kept delaying the repair for 4 days until finally telling me that it would take at least another week. Picked it up and took it to Carolina Muffler and Brakes and they had it fixed in 2 hours and $100 cheaper. Great professional service.

Highly recommend!!! They repaired my exhaust system by doing a cut & replace for $229 when Midas was gonna charge me $2100 for an unnecessary full exhaust change. Frankie’s service was great! I had a 1:15 appointment, got there at 1:05, and was on my way by 1:30!

Travis and his crew are the best around. Nothing they can't do. I travel 2 hours for their work with any new vehicle and have for years. These are pics from my new truck where they built a muffler bypass, via electronic butterfly valve, which ties back into the exhaust piping behind the muffler. Flip a switch inside the cab to go from mild to wild. Amazing work!

Love this Family Owned Honest little local shop! No BS and women are the neck of this well oiled machine! Always doing what they say & do not over promise or overcharge! They showed me what they were doing before they did it/what I suspected was wrong and were timely, efficient and didn't try to upsell anything 🥰🥰

Wow. Just the most wonderful experience here! I was given some excellent free advice, on top of them replacing my muffler quickly AND for less than they had already quoted me!! Who can even do that anymore? Frankie set my appointment for the next day! They even let me search for and locate a small nail in my rear tire while up on their lift. I'll definitely come back when I need brake work and will likely have them replace my cats. You can't go wrong with these peeps!

I contacted theee different muffler repair places in the Charleston area and immediately got the best vibe from Frankie at Carolina muffler and brakes. I had a broken tail pipe and they had me in and out super quickly and way cheaper than I thought it was going to be. Highly recommend.
