Seems like a fair price. My setup was about $400 but installation was free. I took my car to my local high school's auto shop. The teachers there said it was the biggest project they had gotten in a while (which I do find hard to believe). But either way, with some trust and confidence and two easily fixable problems, I was happy with the result and so was my wallet.

Might be something to look in to.

Its worth a shot. Do you feel equally comfortable with each show as far a quality? If so go for it or even 320 would be worth it considering you having to drive and all

Yeah I would definitely do it, exhaust is a really fun mod to make and with a tune has a very noticeable power increase.
