H-pipe install
How much is a good price to get my H-pipe installed? (hell yeah, I got her today)
And yes, I know I could do it myself at home, but here's the problem. 1. It's dark when I get home and I don't feel like hunting down my lights to do it. and 2. Even if I did do it my self I would have to wait until Sunday (son has opening day baseball alllllll day saturday). I'm not patient enough to wait until then, so I am about to leave work and get em installed. So what price should I look for. The first place I called wanted $150 and I figured that was pretty damn high for a simple bolt on with no welding required?

my friend got his done for $40.. you shouldnt have to weld anything so $70 seems awfully high and $150 is rediculous... dont pay that much. just got find a mechanic and offer $50 cash. it's not very hard to put them on.

By the time you run around trying to get someone to do it for a decent price, you could of already did it yourself..it will take maybe an hour and a half max. Just try to soak the bolts with pb blaster or something the night before to make your life easier

Yeah, I decided to go ahead and do it myself yesterday afternoon (snuck out of work at 2:00)....that **** was easy as hell, took just over an hour and a half.
And I've heard multiple people say that the mid-pipe will "wake up" the flows.......but damn, my exhaust was in hibernation before with the cats! Damn, I love the sound of my car now!!!
Exhaust clips to come soon (waiting on delivery of a new solution disk for my camera).
