Need Exhaust Help
Ok so im picking up a catback and was gonna go the lazy way and just have a shop install it. Come to find out that all the shops i called want $80 - $100 to install it. The only reason im not doing it myself is i don't have a decent jack or jackstands. So does anyone know a shop in the west valley that will install for a decent price?

you could spend the cash to get the jackstangs ect ect...you can usually get them in a set for $60-$80 , then you have them for whenever you need them, if you want to mod cars, you need tools

I understand the reality that its beneficial to spend 60 - 80 on them but then it comes back to i have to not only take my tool box but then a set of jackstands and a jack to my father in law's house if i want to get under the car... and to be honest i dont plan on doing anything else to the car since im waiting for my "family" car to be released which is the Evo X.... Who knows... if i can't get a decent price i know im gonna end up buying them and doing it myself but we will see...

guess thats why people buy factory fast cars, so they dont have to do work on them...but there needed for alot of matence on any car, oil changes,brakes ect ect...but when it comes down to it thats definetly your call, i just see it as somthing that will more then pay for itself in being able to do oil changes alone
