around $100 is an average price, the ss/sc dp is a huge step up for the 2.2 with much larger tubing and a larger cat for better flow. since you have an 06 2.2 the exhaust mani from the ss/sc is an upgrage too, search and you'll find pictures showing why

Stock 06 LS exhaust manifold vs LSJ mani. The downpipe comparison is similar.
Cat-back comparison.
Ahhhhhhh, the chrome tip!!

I used the center hole in the rubber hangers, which helps a little. Then used tie-straps to keep it in place. I have driven the car 10,000 miles since the install, and it retains that position.

So everyone is saying i should just get the SS/SC exhaust manifold and dp instead of going after market with a aftermarket dp? If id get aftermarket id get it with a cat because without a cat it sounds like crap. back fires and all that
