Weeelllll, I've got the LM II's from SLP, I also got the high flow cat'd H, and long tubes, and all that was $1,763, and at $78 an hr, the install was a little over $650.. I probably could've gone cheaper, but oh well.. lol A little too late now.. Besides, I LOVE how the LM II's sound at WOT..

+1, pretty straight forward install, only problem alot of people run into is the passenger side manifold nuts, which are in a crappy position and usually frozen on. Extensions and swivels sre your friend for this one. I had a lift and an impact gun for my install so it was it went pretty smooth.

When I swapped out my LM1 cat back for the Bassani SS I just took it to a muffler shop as I didn't have a good place to do it myself. Then I was really happy I did it because the bolts were frozen on and they ended up having to use a torch to cut them off.

Even with that PITA of having to cut the bolts the shop only charged me $70 for the swap.

wow, you guys paid a bit for the slp setup, I have slp catted x and slp lmII catback(swapped to lmI mufflers)

I paid all together about 600 for parts, and it took about 2 hrs give or take, on my back to get it up. Had a slight exhaust leak cause I didnt have a good enough extension to torque it down enough, so I paid a muffler shop 50 to fix the leak.

i paid 250 for my used catted slp x (swapped o/r pipes), and 390 for my lm2 catback new.


and do the install yourself, if you know how to jack a car up and use a wrench to unbolt things you can do this.

Though it's not SLP... my catback took about 4 hours to install LOL. This was my first time ever touching exhaust so I was learning as I was going. Of course it took me about an hour to get one of the pipes of my Magnapack catback over the axle, so I took the tire off to get a little more room to move the pipe around. It shouldn't take you NEARLY that long if you have an idea of what you are doing, unlike myself LOLOL
