If you already have the parts, expect about 800 in labor + 90 for an alignment.

If you don't have the headers, mid-pipe and catback, depending on the brands you use, you could spend anywhere from 700 total to 1500 total on that alone.

depends on whether or not you get a catted midpipe, and how much of the work you are going to do yourself. getting headers installed on your car cost an a$$load from a shop.

If you pay a shop to do the work you will pay more in labor then you did for the parts. Or you can spend under $100 for the tools you need, grab a buddy and a case of beer and knock it out in a day.

labor cost
springs- $250
LT headers w/midpipe- $800
catback- $150

Thats what I would charge you
