Whether you need an OEM style muffler installation, or a completely custom exhaust designed to fit you specific wants and needs, you want it done right! You also want it built to last. That means finding the right exhaust shop, with the right knowledge, and the right exhaust technicians.
Since 1971, A-1 Custom has been the leader in matching customers with mufflers and exhaust systems that fulfill their needs & desires. At both of our Springfield, MO locations, and our Republic, MO location; we can fabricate, weld, bend, and build custom exhaust. Our shops also perform muffler and exhaust system general repairs.
A-1 Custom Car Care specializes in the repair, and custom replacement of mufflers, exhaust systems, headers, manifolds, and catalytic converters. These components are crucial to your vehicle’s performance. Noise reduction is a major goal in maintaining and repairing exhaust systems. But did you know a malfunctioning exhaust system will affect fuel mileage, and emissions output? In modern vehicles, that change in emissions can even disable normal engine and transmission operation.
Properly sealed and functional exhaust is necessary to pass a Missouri State Inspection. Keeping your exhaust performing well and sounding great is not our only focus. A-1 Custom also wants to ensure you and your family do not suffer exposure to harmful exhaust fumes and gases.
Performance Exhaust Systems and Mufflers
Our highly trained exhaust technicians have more than 80 years combined experience with building and designing custom exhaust. Our locations share two of the best exhaust technicians in Southwest Missouri, they’ve both been fabricating exhaust since their teens. A-1 is the performance & custom exhaust king in SW Missouri, as we have been tuning muffler and exhaust sounds for customers since the era of big block engines and carburetors.
We are just as familiar with modern vehicle exhaust and mufflers. We are the exclusive dealer for Paradox Performance Mufflers, whose design utilizes an innovative system of tuning forks inside the muffler to cancel undesirable noise and provides a rich and deep sound. This system works for all makes and models – but is specially designed to operate on vehicles with multiple displacement, or cylinder cancellation. If your vehicle switches to a fuel efficient mode that turns off engine cylinders, these mufflers are specifically engineered to combat the unpleasant exhaust note that occurs.
A-1 Custom Car Care also installs other brands such as Flowmaster and Magnaflow. We can also source Walker Exhaust and Dynomax Mufflers by special order. In addition, our locations carry a selection of some of the best and most popular exhaust tips. There are several finishes available ranging from Chrome to Stainless Steel, to Black Chrome and other variations. If you want your exhaust to look and sound the best, we know how to make your dreams come true.
