Anyone have a shop near chino or La Puente that can install headers for a decent price? Called around and one shop said 400 another said 630??? Thanks in advance

Ask danny from Head turners. He did two of our guys for 200$ and a six pack....or maybe it was a 32 pack but idk. He's a super humble dude. 400$ is a decent price. It takes about 3 hours with a lift if they take their time and have at least 13 smoke breaks.

although you may have to modify or remove your cat. IF that is the case then go to a shop.

I have the high flow cats so its a direct bolt on system. I paid 300 for the headers and didnt expect to pay the same for install lol

Yeah longtube BBK headers with cats, the guy I bought them from had a performance shop that closed down and gave me a crazy deal on them

HAHAHA I hope not, i think the guy was hurting for money and they were extra parts laying around. Brand new too, he said they were a display set in his shop

that was a good price for some headers but i bought some TSP LT headers and installed them myself and all i really used was 2 small jacks. I started on the driver side since there is more clearence and them moved to the passenger side since there is a smaller work area. It all took around 4 hours without me knowing what i was doing lol but the look and sounds great and i saved myself $400 + Dollars.

I'll probably go this route if my mechanic customer doesnt come through. I do insurance for a guy near my office and he said he'd do it for free if he has time on Friday.
