You can do it yourself in your garage. I did mine on jack stands. Not that difficult, just a little time consuming. I'm no mechanic, and I managed it without issues. Save yourself a couple hundred bucks at least.

Just move to WA. Nothing made after 2008 even needs emissions.

I've learned my lesson getting into projects that are above my head lol. I'd rather pay someone to do it right.

It's really not difficult. It's a few bolts and a couple compression fittings on the exhaust. I wasn't sure I could do it either, but I managed it 99% by myself until the very end where I needed a helper for a couple little things. I trust no one to touch my car. I've had more mechanics **** shit up over the years than I care to remember. I'd rather do it myself, then I have no one else to blame, and I learn in the process.

Good luck anyway.

if he could do it him self he would not be asking about a shop close to him...

Most muffler/exhaust shops I called charge about $450 to do the install. In the end, I did the install myself and ended up snapping a header bolt so I had to take it in a shop to get it fixed. Where in OC are you? If you're in south OC, RPM in Oceanside does great work on exhausts. They can probably knock them out in a couple hours. If you're going to have them installed and tuned then Cunningham is the place to go.

Sucks about the bolt! I'll look into both shops... I'm in the Tustin area. Oceanside isnt too far away, if I make an afternoon of it.

No. I didn't think I could do it and called a bunch of shops but after listening to rude people on the phone and people wanting to charge $500 I ended up doing it myself. It's straight forward. I had never even used a jack before this install
