hey i just got some hooker ceramic coated long tube headers for my 4.6 along with hooker X-pipes. does anyone know a ballpark figure on the cost of a shop installing them?

 

bout 400 or so

 

too much. try installed them yourself. your car will cost 3 times as much if your always paying some one else to do the labor

 

Im paying 600 for my install. apparently you have to drop the k member and blah blah blah on an 06

 

Thats why its good to have mechanics as friends or friends of friends.

 

600? i'd kill myself before being raped like that

 

Having a friend as a mech helps. I paid $300 to my friend and after the install and 7.5 hours later, he would of charged double. Engine had to be raised 6 inched on the passenger side and 3 on the drivers. The biggest issue was tightening the bolts and limited space to do anything. WORTH THE MONEY, even if I would of had it done in the shop. IM sure dropping the k memeber would of made things easier.
