Best in town for mufflers and catalytic converters. A man of few words, but expert at what he does.
After asking a handful of other shops in town for my E30 S54 swap exhaust, Jerry and his skills came with high praises. For a fully custom exhaust, I believe the setup he built for me is exactly what I asked for. He fixed a slight O2 fitment problem for me, added O2 bungs for my wideband setup and post-cat O2 bungs so that we are as Cali-compliant as I need to be. The exhaust fits quite well to the underbody, exhaust hangers are solid while looking stock, and he put a nice touch so that the sleeper look of the now gone stock exhaust would have had with the canted exhaust tips as was done on these cars.Jerry was quick, very pleasant to chit-chat with, and exceeded my expectations. Thank you Jerry, and I hope you the best!
Jerry is the BEST for over 20yrs taking care of SB. Great Service and very Reasonable and will work with you. ROOTS RASTAFRAI 🌊🌴🇪🇹✊
I walked in and right off the bat assisted me to my satisfaction. Im very happy with the service. Ive always came to this business & would definitely recommend this business to anybody looking to keep muffler/exhaust. 😄
Someone tried to steal my catalytic converter and he was able to weld me back up and weld some additional bars that wont be quite so easy to saw through now!
Overpriced for easy and basic work
Higgins Muffler is the best muffler shop in Santa Barbara if you would like a custom exhaust on your car theres nothing that he cant build for that car. When hes done with the exhaust its like a work of art absolutely beautiful and sounds incredible. Jerry put an exhaust system on my 1965 Ford Falcon with a 289 absolutely beautiful job and a complete exhaust on my 1971 Pontiac Firebird
Jerry did some fantastic welding on my Sequoia’s exhaust. I’ll be coming to him and recommending him for years to come.
Recommended by some of my fellow car enthusiasts as the place to go for exhaust work on vintage, custom, street rods, etc. They were right!Needed to have the exhaust on my 70 Camaro raised to accommodate a change in elevation in my driveway. Required a new transmission cross member for clearance to raise. Also had an exhaust leak that I could not locate. Jerry installed the new crossmember, raised the exhaust and fixed the exhaust leak with a better connection than original. Excellent workmanship AND at a reasonable price! Highly recommended!! Oh, and work was finished as promised!
Was fast and not expensive
I received the best service I have gotten in quite some time here. Was affordable and extremely quick. No appointment I was a walk in, however all I had to do was just leave the truck for a few hours and boom he had my new cat installed (fixed my botch job of a clamp). Welds looked professional and very clean. Biggest plus for me was the he actually spoke to me about my vehicle and checked the codes out after with me to ensure I was informed on where I was currently at, something almost every other shop fails to follow through with upon completing a auto service. Check out Higgins for honest service.
Jerry installed some difficult exhaust parts for me a few months ago. I’m so impressed with his work I’m bringing my truck back to him for some more work. Can’t wait to see what it will sound like. Thanks guys
Higgins is the best place for ANY exhaust needs. They have mufflers, glasspacks and catalytic converters in stock. They also do performance exhaust. They have super reasonable prices and they stand behind their work...
Jerry from Higgins Muffler is the man! The guy does the highest quality work fast, and at the best rate anywhere. Dont hesitate to call for a quote, they are inviting and know their trade. Highly recommend.
Higgins is the BEST!!Super reliable and reasonable.I really like this place, they always take good care of us and our cars.
Went twice without an appointment, Higgins is my go to guy, welds are great, prices are good. Overall an honest guy who doesnt take s***. That person who left all those negative reviews deserves the worst. Give him a try! Dont be going with a Im always right/delicate attitude its not needed
Higgins Muffler replaced my catalytic converter while I waited for less money than I could find one on the internet! Great service and best quality workmanship.Thanks Jerry!
My experience was very unsatisfactory to say the least. He was very unfriendly and overpriced. I would not recommend this place to anyone.
My experience with Higgins Muffler & Brake was excellent! They found the answer to the problem with my muffler immediately and fixed it on the spot even though I didnt have an appointment. The cost was so reasonable and I was so grateful they found the problem. I was referred to Higgins Muffler and Im glad I went! Thank you for the outstanding service!
He gets zero stars from me! He was supposed to put an exhaust on my car but he told me to go somewhere else because I bought the parts off the internet and not him. Like a little baby. Dont go to this guy he is immature and over prices everything. If he think you have money he will try to throw big number at you.
Getting my third full exhaust system done here, this place is the best. Theres no shop in town that can come close to Jerrys work, hes the real deal, his quality is head and shoulders above the rest.
Good the owner is straight forward tells you what it is I like it
Great customer service, very nice and best quality work. Best place
Higgins has everything for your cars exhaust. Great prices and excellent work.
Ignore the fake guy leaving all the bogus one star reviews on here. Higgin’s is a name you can trust!
An aquantance of mine told me about Higgins and told me to write a bad review. I told him I had nott been there. I spent some time reviewing the shop and it looked legit. I encountered some problems with my 4Runners exhaust and decided to give it a try knowing my friend had given it bad reviews (20 or more under fake names that he told me about). The owner Jerry fixed my problem and was amazingly accommodating. I am more than willing to vouch for this place especially after knowing the derogatory things he said without cause. If anyone has any questions please contact me. Good things come to good people and I disagree with my aquantance on this one. Jerry is great!
Simply honest.
Great service, great price, and I felt like I could trust them
Bad customer service all round. Bit pricey too. He will try to take advantage if your not knowledgeable.
Nathan, Sorry I refused service to you, seventeen false negative reviews jan-23 to march-24, thats a lot of hate.......that black cloud that follows you around is called karma, you cant out run this, right your wrongs or its going to be a tough life...........
Horrible service. guy will rip you off be careful
Need exhaust components go here. We werent able to find an exhaust clamp anywhere, but was able to get one here the next day!
Horrible customer service and he tried to quote me twice as much as the work was worth. After getting a second opinion Id never recommend Higgins.
At first i was unhappy i could not make an appointment, but it only took him an hour to put a new muffler on. great work!
We parked there to walk across the street in the morning before they were open but an employee was in the parking lot we told him wed be right back and he said OK. We were gone 5 minutes and we came back and that employee and the owner had broken into our car, dumped my friends purse on the seat and was going through her things. When they saw us they just took off into the shop. God only knows what theyll do to your car if you take it in for repairs
For anything exhaust related(custom exhaust, catalytic converter a, exhaust leaks), Jerry is the guy to call at Higgins.
I went to higgins for an estimate and left feeling like i got my wallet stolen from me.
This guy sucks he has bad attitude and will jack up prices if he thinks you dont know anything
Honest place
Not happy with service at all.
