RINGWOOD PERFORMANCE EXHAUST ARE SH!T

Postby effaircon » May 24th, 2009, 4:34 pm

I took my car to ringwood performance exhaust a couple of weeks ago to get a redback tailpipe with no muffler and hi flow cat put on my falcon.
Cost me $345 to get this done and what they done was cut the muffler out of a normal redback pipe and welded a bit of press bent pipe on. I was unhappy :evil: so i took it back and they fixed it up.

The car started making a sound like the exhaust had a leak in it. so today i pulled the cat out to find they have missed 3 spots when welding. I'm pissed off :mad:
one of the spots is atleast 4mm wide and 3mm deep.

They will be getting a call tomorrow morning. :rant:

The point behind this post is. Dont use RINGWOOD PERFORMANCE EXHAUST they are fu(king shit and do shit work.

    Well i went there this morning and they welded up the holes. They also welded up 2 cracks that were also in my exhaust which i was happy with. As far as i am concerned i will not be going back there again.

    They should be letting jobs out, in a form they would be happy to recieve them in. Sounds very poor quality work if they leave it in that condition for the customers
