and thank you for the shop price! I didn't think it would be hella expensive, because if the folks around here who are not trained mechanics can do it easily, a pro should have no trouble.

EAsy install if you have jack stands and a good jack. I did it in a hour and a half going real sloooooooooow. I had zero issue and Im novice at this. I had no trouble with my bushings, though i used a hack saw to cut my flowmasters off at the inlet. I think the hardest thing I had to do was align the tips to match the distance sticking out at the rear of the car. You'll be happy with the sound.

I also self installed and the hardest part was gettin the old exhaust off. I cut the old one right at the bend above the axle and let me tell u it was a pain in the A#*. I broke about 5 saw zaw blades but once I got threw it came right off and then I easily bolted the new one on. All I used was a 1 ton jack, 2 jack stands for the back, whatever sockets I needed and the saw zaw. It shouldnt take more than an hour and a half. As for a shop doin it, well there really is no reason, I wouldnt pay over 150 to have someone else install it. Theres more pride if u install it yourself though.

Are you installing the LM II's with the stock mid-pipe? Or do you have an aftermarket mid-pipe going with it? I'm just curious cuz I plan on getting the LM II's as well but kinda see sawing on getting a catted H or an O/R H to go with it. Do put some good video/sound clips because I am very interested on how they sound for you. Good luck man.

A local shop around here charged $125 to do the exhaust on my friends T/A. It took about 20minutes on a lift. I know, he got ripped badly.

By the way. Buying jackstands and a jack aren't too expensive. Probaly cheaper than the exhaust install.

a speed shop quoted me like $100. my friend and helped me out and we did it ourselves. it was a Bassani catback...but still...a catback. wasnt too bad.

when we were doing it we didnt label/pay attention when we took off the old stuff and put on the new stuff so we kept mixing up driver and passenger side lol. it ended up taking us a long *** time...but...i saved $100...sooo...worth it.

if you should happen to live in southwest florida...ill help you if you want lol.

Edit: yea...my friend who helped me had just bought jackstands the day before...12 bucks for two of them at walmart. 12 bucks for jackstands is better than 100 for installation. plus...theres a fighting chance youll end up doing something else that requires jackstands.

same here a shop quoted me $100 the they saw my car and said $120 since i didn't have cats and is illegal to do exhaust work with no cats, so those 20 will cover their *** and blah blah blah, so i borrowed some jack stands, my dad's saw-saw i dodnt took me long, of course i had to do some adjustment after cuz the pipes was hitting my suspension and rattling but since is just clamped was easy

i have a completely stock car and i will be running them with the stock manifold and hpipe. i already took a short clip of the car reving as it is so that i can make a short vid that compares them.
