About Us

History of Daytona Converter

 In October of 1991, Daytona Catalytic Converter was founded by Bobby Benincasa. Working out of the family's home garage, and mom's minivan as a delivery truck, Bobby went out looking for customers to sell to. After a rather uneventful week of sales (only selling four universal converters) and much second-guessing of himself, Bobby continued on the journey.

 

 

Growing the Business

Through the next several years, we constantly added product lines that our ever-growing customer base demanded, and in 1994, Rob, Bobby's son, joined the force. Being young and hungry for more sales, Rob worked with Bobby to add more lines and grow in more areas. In 1996, we opened our first retail store and grew our services there to include Complete auto service as well as custom exhaust. David joined our ranks then as an expert exhaust installer as well as a mechanic.

 
 

Later History

In 2003, we again added product lines now growing to become a complete full exhaust warehouse. The demand of our customers required the addition of new employees, so after selling our retail stores, David joined us as well as Dejuan and Bob to handle the needs of our customers. In 2020, after outgrowing several warehouses due to the increasing demand from our customers, we are now in our current 20,000 square foot facility, where our team and product lines have continued to expand. We have thousands of parts for all your exhaust needs. We strive to help all our loyal customers and it is our goal to give you the best possible customer service at all times. We believe the difference between ordinary and extraordinary is just a little "extra" effort. Thank you to all our loyal friends and customers and together we can make every year the best year ever!
