Pop’s Exhaust

Was told by my VW dealer that my wife’s car had a bad catalytic converter and would cost $ 1,500 to replace. This is after I asked them to check for a rattle under the car. They stated that the internal parts of the converter were loose.
Asked Pop’s to check it out as I heard that they offered quality service at fair prices. They put the car on the left and quickly determined that the rattle was due to a loose converter shield because the bolts had rusted away.
Removed shield — no more rattle. Pop’s charged $ 0!!!

I have been going to pops exhaust for years.
I’ve always gotten the best prices and great work, customer service. One Saturday I worked on my car all day and ran into problems with my exhaust. I called Pops, they told me they were closing in 30 minutes. But they would be happy to wait until I got there and assist. They know how to resolve the issue quickly.
If you don’t believe me, get a quote from pops exhaust before you have any other shop work on your vehicle. I garuntee the prices will best anyone’s.

I had nothing but the best treatment /​experience with Pop’s. I had found them by referrals of friends, mechanics and family. I had looked at reviews online and seen all wonderful things. I worked with Nick and he was nothing but professional and polite. Him and his team took a single exit exhaust on my Mitsubishi Lancer GTS 09 and turned it into my dream of a quad exit roaring animal. The car sounds amazing. The car looks amazing.
I will always choose pop’s.
Thanks again guys.

When I took my car to a local independent shop with a very loud exhaust, they told me that the flex pipes around the catalytic converter were shot. They wanted over $ 1,000 to fix it, by replacing the section of pipe that includes the flex pipes and the catalyst with a factory part. When pressed, they allowed as how they could weld in new flex pipes for $ 400, but they wouldn’t provide any warranty on the work.
I took the car to Pop’s. Not only did they weld in new flex pipes, but they saw that the resonator had a small leak in it that wasn’t evident until the flex pipes were fixed. The entire repair – two segments of flex pipe and a new resonator – cost me just under $ 290.
They were quick and efficient, and they have nice comfortable chairs in their air-​conditioned waiting room – not something you always get with independent shops.

I believed I had an exhaust issue with my 1999 Honda CRV because of a noise occurring while driving. I spoke to Nick Works and he set up an appointment for the very next morning. I received a call from Nick shortly after I dropped the car off and he informed me that they thoroughly checked the exhaust system and could find nothing wrong. He even took the time to go for a «test drive» with me so I could point out the noise when I heard it.. .he noted that it may be a transmission problem and referred me to Manchester Transmission.
I was impressed with their honesty (yes, honesty), NO diagnostic fee, as well as, taking the time to «test drive» the car AND referring me to Manchester Transmissions. ALL THIS AT NO CHARGE! Their shop was clean, neat and very comfortable. I would recommend anyone who has issues with their brakes, exhaust or a general repair to definitely go to Pop’s Exhaust in Manchester, CT. They will be honest with their diagnosis and will also refer you to other car repair shops for «other» car repairs!!!

These guys get it. I have brought 3 different vehicles here for various types of work in the last 5 years and they deliver every time.
In 2008 I had brought my 2008 Honda Accord V6 for a muffler replacement. After getting a quote from Manchester Honda, I found an OEM muffler on eBay and brought it here to be replaced. In 2009 I had a 1991 Mitsubishi Galant VR4 that needed the catalytic converter, muffler, connecting pipe, resonator and tailpipe repaired/​replaced. Again I brought in an OEM resonator and muffler that I sourced, but had them supply the piping. And finally in 2011, while in Germany the catalytic converter on my 1991 Nissan 240SX was stolen. Luckily I had a spare so I had them install that and new mid-​piping.
I recently brought a friend here who had a terribly rotted muffler on her 2005 Honda Civic. Expecting to pay hundreds of dollars for parts and labor, she paid $ 150 for everything. Time and again Jon and his staff have been great. Same day turn-​around, very reasonable pricing, and super down-​to-​earth guys — everyone here goes above and beyond to treat customers like family.

My 2001 Toyota Highlander had an exhaust leak and the exhaust part at the Lynch Toyota was $ 1200. Because of the great reviews online I went to Pops Exhaust in Manchester and they repaired my exhaust leak the same day for $ 300. They were able to cut out a piece of the part and weld in a new piece. They also repaired the exhaust in a couple of new places that I didn’t even know about. I cannot recommend them enough. Do yourself a favor and go there.

I took my 2013 Mitsubishi Lancer Sportback GTS to these guys today, and I could NOT BE MORE HAPPY with the results. They are super-​nice, not out to screw you and they do top-​notch work. They also came highly recommended to me by people who have had their Benz’s, BMW’s & Audi’s done there, thus the reason I drove all the way from Farmington to Manchester. I was able to wait for it (didn’t really take long) and smiled all the way home!

I brought my truck in to have new mufflers installed. When i got the truck back the headers were leaking and the tailpipes were hitting the frame. Their response was that’s the way it was when you brought it in. They denied doing anything wrong. I ended up bringing it to another shop and having the whole job redone. For a small family owned shop you think they would stand behind their work they didn’t.

This is as good as it gets for an exhaust shop.
I took my 90 Chevy in for an exhaust leak at the Y pipe, it had slowly been getting worse. I assumed it was the manifold or the pipe itself that had rusted through or blown out.
I assumed that they’d tell me the whole thing needed to be replaced up to the catalytic converter and mentally prepared to shell out $ 400 or more.
To my surprise, they called me before they did any work with a quote of $ 150 — assuming they didn’t get into anything more than they could see.
When they called me to come pick it up, they said it was the passenger side stem and studs and charged just what they’d quoted — $ 150 + $ 9.xx tax.
Couldn’t be happier! I’ll be back for sure, from the pictures on the wall, they do a good deal of custom hot rod and tuner work — and I need a catalytic welded in my Toyota before I go to get it tested for emissions ;)

These guys do excellent, reasonably-​priced work — so far, for my household, they’ve replaced two flex pipes and one massively rotted-​out exhaust pipe/​muffler. (Three separate cars, in case you were wondering. I don’t abuse my car that much.) Each time, the work was done while we waited, and has held up very well. One star off, though, for the mechanics’ seeming inability to speak to me instead of my boyfriend regarding MY car. Really, fellas, he’s just my ride. It’s my car, I’m paying for the repairs, I don’t have cooties, and you can talk to me about anything you need to do.
