Average cost of exhaust install?
I have a full exhaust kit (header, downpipe, catback) I want to have a shop put it on, can anyone give me a rough estimate of what it will cost?
I know you want a shop to do it, but you really can do this yourself or find someone on here to help.
A shop will charge likely upwards of $3-500 depending on how bad they rape you.
Might find someone awesome that can do it for less than $200 but I doubt it.

Yeah I had thought about doing it myself, but its getting cold here and I really wanted it done before winter... Also for the right price its not worth the trouble of doing it myself (assuming it doesn't cost me an arm and a leg)
Best way to go is keep a resonator, get a 2.5 center inlet to a 2.5 offset, cut your old tip off and weld it on, The pipe you have from cat back should also be 2.5. I have hears tc-sc they sound lke junk with a 3in exaust, the average cost for this is about 350-600$
Do it yyyyyyoooouuuurself for real bro. You will save a lot of money. And since youll be savin, put the money you were gonna spend on the exaust on say a meth kit, hp tuners or somthing. I know it is cold man, but if you wanna be a gear head do it your self in the cold or the hot.
Yeah i mean honestly it can be done in 2-3 hrs. A shop will charge 50-100/hr.
I was a total newb when I did mine.
The only thing I screwed up was when I broke the manifold studs on the end of the header..
Other than that, just get all new gaskets and it's just nuts and bolts. You will need a breaker bar and some lube to help break the bolts loose.
Should be done to learn how to do it.

If you lived near me, i always help my bros out out here for free. Sucks man. It is easy. I know for a fact that the exaust is easier then easy. It is like a rate 2 for how hard it is, and the number of it being rated are from 1 to 200 lol
