    Default Installing downpipe, exhaust shop required

    Just want to know where those who have had exhaust work ie. downpipe install, have had it done at? and what ball park price was it

    its starting to be a pita so thinking i might just visit a shop to have it done

    or any tips for those that have installed it themselves and want to give me a hand!?

    update: also manifold install.......hint hint 2XS, how did find room to get the nuts off the engine side?
    thats why im not a mechanic i guess

    At CES we charge $400 for fitting of our system. It takes roughly 6-8hrs to remove and refit the new one. The rear section needs to be cut from the car, best place for this is in front of the rear crossmember which is one of the hardest parts and also removing the heatsheilds is a pain in the ar$3

    Removing the manifold: I have alot of specialised tools (short, intermediate and long sockets and spanners and also swivel headed ratchets) It can be done without these tools, just bend some older spanners if you can, otherwise it all takes time to remove them. The remove the manifold you have to drop the turbo down by removing the oil drain/return line from the block and removing the support bracket.

    Any other advice needed?
