They should have done what you asked and they should have said up front they wouldn't do it.

That really sucks. I would demand your money back. Most exhaust shops are lazy, at least in my experience. On my first exhaust project, my first shop said they couldn't get my magnaflow kit on right. They installed it and it rattled like crazy. Took it to another shop and they had a guy who did old muscle car exhausts on the side, he fixed it right up in an hour, and $75 bucks.

I would stick it to them!

Speak to the shop owner. Not his flunky manager but the owner. Tell him to fix it or you'll file a complaint with the Better Business Bureau. If they balk at that, tell them you will list there name address and phone number on the forums so we will never go there. You can also go down to the shop with a big sign announcing how you were screwed. Voice your opinion to every customer that walks to their door.

This can be fixed. It all depends on how aggressive you want to be. But the Ford dealer should not even be involved.

yeah i thinki got the guy who quoted me the price fired. lol. he told his boss that he toldme that they didnt do h's, which he didnt, and so i told the manager thisand he was really pissed at the guy. i dont think it will happen to anyone else, but they wont give me any money backor anything, i mean they did a good job and the exhaust guy was cool, it was just the moron clerk who screwed me over.

and i was just wondering about the deasler becausemy idle speedneeds to go up about 50 rpm's and it is reallypissing me off because the idle is low and it shakes and has a bad sound. when i putthe slightest pressure on the gas and the rpm's go over like 800 then it sounds fine(up to 4000 where is is high as hell because NO H PIPE) im going tomorrow to another shop to get them to dit, shouldnt be over 50 bucks, which will put me at about $430 total price
