I just got quoted $560.11 to get SLP longtube headers installed. They also said it was going to take a couple days. Does this sound reasonable? I dont really want to go to any other shops in my town b/c I dont trust them, and I'd rather not go to far out of town.

Basically just wondering what everyone else has paid to get lt's installed.

Yea I'd love to do it myself, but I dont have the mechanical knowledge, nor all the required tools. I would be up for paying someone else to do them if someone wanted to come to central Ohio to put them on lol.

Lol I wish. The headers alone were 770, and then the 560 for install. I dont mind paying a little more when its going to be done right the first time. Plus I know that SLP is great quality...I already have the catted X pipe on my car and love it.
