I just moved to San Diego and am looking for someone to install a midpipe. Can anyone recommend a good shop that wont charge me an arm and a leg? I have gotten one quote so far and they wanted to charge me $125, which i think is outrageous. Thanks for any help guys.

thats pretty cheap. no reason you cant do it yourself tho, mid pipes are easy

yeah, i wouldnt have a problem doing it myself except that i live in an apartment and have absolutely nowhere to work on it. i used to have access to a full hot rod shop, which is where i installed my O/R H-Pipe, and now i feel helpless because i need to get the stock one back on for smog. is the normal rate for shop work out here $125/hr? cause in NC its only about $65-75/hr.

that sucks about having no where to work. as far as the price of labor goes i couldnt tell you. i cant remember the last time i payed a shop to do anything.

i can say this tho, everything is more expensive in so cal.

Try woodside auto. They are located in Lakeside off of Maine and Woodside Ave. The owener Pierre is knowledgeable with mustangs and other other cars as well. I believe his shop rate is $65 per. hour. A lot of local mustang owners go to him.

if you are near the south bay like chula vista/bonita are there is a shop called Ledezma's Mufflers and they are really cool. they charged me 65 for a complete exhaust swap so it will probably be cheaper for just a midpipe
