exhaust question(s)

[mexor]

im going to an exhaust shop tommorow, and getting a $459 paycheck. i've read up a lot on the subject and i'm wondering if its all right.

1. gt take offs $100
2. 2x spintech pro street mufflers $150
3. h-pipe and installation @ shop $150

that sound about right? btw i have a '96 mustang.
when i go ask him how much the actual cost is, if he can do it, etc, i wanna sound educated.

assuming i get it all done for 400, what am i gonna do with the other $59

You gotta get that stuff and bring it to him.

I doubt he'll get you gt takeoff's

[mexor]

oh i know; im just gonna ask him and see if he can do it. btw if YOU wanna do it, ill pay you! i know u can't do mufflers but i know you've done take offs before and if they're aren't that hard. if not thats fine, i think it'd be very hard (my opinion)

[Rellik]

If it doesnt involve welding then yes we cna do it.

other wise, just pay for the installation.

Did u ever get the new transformer?

[mexor]

transformer should be here anyday; he said it was shipped so im just waiting for it. im not sure if it would involve welding. i think the mufflers would but i have no idea? anyone know? maybe if we installed the gt take offs and then have the proffesional do the mufflers.

p.s. welcome back from SC? or was it NC?

[Rellik]

North Carolina and thanks..

If you buy GT takeoff's then yea it will need to be welded and cut, if your going to put on new mufflers. You also going to have to decide what kind of a crossover pipe you want. Custom H, H, X, or cut your Y pipe into 2 straight pipes.


If you get a system that just bolts on we can do that very easily

The MAC Cat-Back System bolts on to existing Y-Pipe

Yea any of those direct fit ones.

Just depends what you want and how much ur going to pay really.

150 labor is awfully high for just a couple pipes, i woudl expect around half that or 100 for the labor and what not.
