Shop recommend?

So, I just picked up a PE and was wondering if I could get any input from you guys for a good indy shop to get it installed at in Toronto. I have zero tools and very little free time at home so I can't really diy.

I know from searching a couple good shops everyone seems to love are RMP and StreetXtreme, but are there any other good ones ppl have come across?

Thanks in advance!

(and holy god I cannot wait to get this thing installed lol)

I don't really understand...if you already searched know what shops are good and ppl have recommended 100s of times already, why are you asking the same question again?

I get a lot of work done with Rob at Auto Evolution in Oakville (905) 842-8200.
Someone else I recommend is Martin at Albert's Auto (ex-BMW tech) in Mississauga (beside Credit Valley Hospital) 905-820-8586

just had a transmission seal, oil change, coilovers raised and rear brakes done at RMP, wouldn't hesitate to take my car there for anything it needs. great service and way better pricing than my local dealer.

Cool thanks guys. I'm in North York. The reason why I searched but am still asking is because I only know of like 2 good shops from reasearching, but maybe other ppl here have their own guys they know and trust to do good work, so I'm trying to get as as much info as possible, get to know as many good shops as I can.

Majestic muffler. Cheap and quick. PE isn't a really hard install if you know exhaust work.

Seriously any exhaust shop will be able to install this in under 45 mins. I just went to the nearest cheap place around my work and they had it installed for 60 bucks cash. The PE has very nice clamps so there is no welding involved.

Cool thanks for all the suggestions guys. Obviously going to keep all this for reference in the future but for my PE I ended up going to bimmersport, paid $90, though they originally quoted me the same, $120. Not unreasonable, and seriously couldn't be happier with the service. They prioritized my car since it was a quick job and charged me less. Will be going back to them for the AA tune and other work in the future for sure.
