DIY DIY!!! Don't pay a shop to do that $hit!!

Here is an idea......pay me $50....fly out here and let me beat you with a tire iron for trying to pay someone to install something so simple.

Then I'll install it for you.

its maybe 2-3 hours max , with never swapping a header, but if you did have a shop doing it, 50-60 an hour for shop time is normal, and it takes them about an hour and a half,

my local muffler shop will install headers in around 45 minutes and will charge $60 for pretty much anything (ie, catback install, header install, muffler install, axel back install) it doesnt matter to them. they even told me theyd install a co2 sim for $60 and that takes like 5 minutes to do

how about with the HP header? Shaving the motor mount and all, pretty easy stuff? Also is lengthning the o2 simulator wires easy to do and all that?? Just wondering before I do it myself. Although I might get the kamikaze header so I dont have to shave the mount

Its so easy. Just do it yourself and save money. If its just the 1 piece it shouldnt take more than 30mins if you have the right tools.
