Lou's Custom Exhaust

Had a good experience at Lous custom Exhaust. I drove there in a 1988 MR2 with a after market muffler and asked when could I make an appointment and how much? They said they could do it right there in 30 minutes for $350. I thought it was a bit pricey but it was money well spent. They did an excellent and showed lots of care to the customer and the car. Was very pleased.

Legit the best exhaust shop. I drive 2 hours total just to see these guys. Good sense of humor, kind and professional. Prices are good too! Will only visit Nashua Lou's for my exhaust work.

Got there mid morning on a Saturday, David got my car in rather quick, found the problem, showed me and got it all fixed same day. Great customer service! Highly recommend!

I've had pipes made here in the past on 2 different cars. I just had them make the pipe & I installed. Pricing was fair & pipes are still in use years later. Once again, I needed a pipe made. A simple flanged extension. They said it would be impossible to make "off the car". I explained that they'd made something similar in the past & he told me he'd been doing this 15 years & he couldn't guarantee the fit without them installing to get the correct measurements & lined up properly. (they get to charge more for labor) Once again I pointed out that I just need a straight thru flanged extension & provided the measurements. He finally said "I'll make it if you want me too..." At this point I felt if something would have turned out wrong, they wouldn't stand behind it so I simply said "no, if you're not comfortable I don't want to make you do it" & left. Not sure if there has been a management change since I was there last, but I won't be going back. Ended up going to Erick's Custom Exhaust in Merrimack. Walked in, explained what I was looking for, & 10 minutes later had the piece I needed. He even included a gasket. Installed & working perfect.

Do not come here. Lous Customer Exhaust overcharged me for a repair that ended up worse than how it started. I took my car to Firestone on Amherst street to have my car inspected, and they notified me that they could not pass the car due to an exhaust leak. They showed me where the intermediate pipe between the converter and the muffler, where it connected via a lap joint to the muffler was corroded and leaking exhaust, as well as 4 bolts that needed to be replaced elsewhere on the exhaust system. They quoted me 700 dollars to do the repair, but mentioned that Lous Custom Exhaust on E Hollis street would likely be able to repair it for cheaper. I made an appointment with Lous and took it down. They charged me 500 dollars for the repair. When I took the car back to Firestone for a reinspection, they said that the 4 bolts were replaced near the front of the car, but the leak (which is why it failed inspection) was still there. They passed the vehicle anyway. 2 weeks later, after minimal driving (I probably drive less than 15 miles a week), I go out and start my car, and it sounds like a motorcycle, and there is also a heavy rattling noise. I get under the car to inspect my exhaust system (in hindsight, I should have done this sooner). The 4 bolts that needed to be replaced were in fact replaced, but the area with the leak looked like nothing was replaced or repaired. The intermediate pipe was completely severed from the muffler. The muffler had completely disconnected and was dangling off the hangers and rattling against the pipe it was supposed to be connected to. Lous Custom Exhaust charged me 500 dollars to replace four bolts They did not repair the exhaust leak at all, and my car ended up in worse condition than when it started. I called and explained the situation and requested that they give me a partial refund, and they told me they do not do that. Now I have to take my car somewhere else because I do not trust Lous and my car is broken. Be warned.
