any ideas on how much is a fair price to get a full catback installed locally? Just asking so I know the price range in case my mechanic tries to mess with me.
thanks

Its pretty simple. I wouldnt know why you wouldnt do it yourself. Buying jack stands and the right sockets/wrenches for the job would still turn out to be cheaper then paying someone, and you have tools for future projects.

I'd probably say 50-100 bucks maybe

i'm not handy at all. I rather have it done professional once and be happy with it.
Plus i have a fear of my car crushing me- I won't even get under it even if its on a lift.

eh..ill do it for 40. just bring it over my place.

all they're gonna do is unbolt your stock exhaust and bolt on your catback.

^yes they usually charge anywhere from 30-60 bucks... 60 should be the highest they charge....anything more ur getting ripped off massively

alright i'll let you know, toe nail, thanks a lot for offering. If this goes down, it'll be in a couple of weeks, certainly after finals. I'm just deciding right now if I'm willing to spend 400 bucks on a greddy SP2, shipped.

greddy sp2 sounds like crap...[well, compared to the magnaflow, RS*r, or even the HKS...]

sp2 is kindda raspy n has a ricy... my friend at school has it on his EM2...

he want to trade me for my mangaflow, but i said no...lol

problem is i have an lx... and rsr only has ex. I heard some clips on youtube and i didn't mind too much. All i want is that it's quiet under low RPMs and loud when i want it to be loud.

i had a shop do mine cause the bolts were so rusted from the salt and humidity i couldnt move them. and they ended up breaking one with the impact lol. for an hour labor, it was worth it.

it's a greddy. it's a good exhaust imo. sounds a bit quieter compared to the EVO2.
