well get this. as you can see in a previous post i stated that i found the garage that is willing to work on my car. So the first day i went there he said he could put it on for standard labor which is 60$ an hour and i agreed to that. So i think everythings cool, and juding by what everyone says here the install is easy as pie , also looking at the directions it seemed easy to me but getting underneath my car was the hardest part. So i drop the car off this morning and go to get it at about 3:30 pm , everythings cool but the guy tells me that it took him 2 hours to do it. I am like ' wow thats crazy everywhere and everyone who's done it has told me it takes a half hour max. Now this guy has a lift and everything so ide imagine its cake. So im going to cash out and he say's well thats going to be 120$ + tax, my responce= i am not paying that , everyone ive talked to even Midas said they could put one on for 60$ max. no more then 1 hour of labor and Boom his claim of 120$ turns in to 60$ as he tells me that everyone's elses garage doesnt have a 3000 dollar over hang every month lol. This pissed me off, just the fact that the bastard tried to screw me into paying more but i wasnt having it lol. so 60$ installed and needless to say i wont be going back to this guy ever again. only takes once.

^^Glad to hear you put him in his place. I guess us guys are good for something other than taking up server space. And yeah, one time and its over. Enjoy that exhaust!

depends on which length of pipe your talking about it uses different sizes and isn't consistant. the stock exhaust is restrictive that way.
