Have you tried installing them?

Midpipe and catback WILL take more than 45min if you dont have a lift available. If it's your first time doing it, it will take even longer. Being a bolt on makes it sound simple, but once you try and curl your hand up around hear the bottom of the headers to get to the flange at the top of the midpipe...you'll realize it's not going to be SUPER easy. It's an awkward reach for both sides, more so for the front left(facing away from car). Then you have to fumble around with the sensors at each end, trying to unplug the connectors. In theory, it's relatively simple. But physically, it depends on your flexibility and perfect knowledge of where everything is.

Your still getting ripped off though.

It even says on the websites that LT Headers should take no more than 2-3 hours tops. Most say 1-2.

And the midpipe and catback are freaking bolt ons... I dont care, your not telling me it takes more than 45 mins of work...

Yea thats what Im saying.

I have no doubt the headers will take a good 2 hours. Thats the bulk of the work. But it definitely won't take ALL DAY.

And I was saying 45 minutes for the mid-pipe and catback. A professional should do it in 45 mins.
