DMH Cutouts= $399.00 anywhere you buy them..
Labor- Our shop rate is $95.00/hour... When installing DMH cutouts we actually remove the exhaust, trim the opening to match the cutout exactly, TIG weld the cutouts in place, rehang the exhaust/wire cutouts/mount switch (which usually entails removing interior items/trimming panel for switch to be mounted..
Tuning- As stated above, includes 12 months free updates and an additional 12 months pro rated rate....
As said above, personally I would skip the cutouts and go with a tune... If you want to mod further headers and/cold air or pulley swap would be your next logical step and make the most use of your mod money.
I hope this clears up our pricing a bit. We try to be MORE than fair when it comes to pricing/customer service.

I guess my next question to anyone listening is what all is involved with installing the magnaflow HF cats? Looks to be a few bolts and done. However, I after reading a few other threads, I still cannot determine if these will bolt up to my magnaflow catback/manifolds without any cutting/welding. Seems that some had a perfect fit, while others have had to hack up their exhaust.
Thoughts? Anyone with experience with this?
