Default Ture Duals Costs?

I'm looking at getting some true duals put on my camaro. I've already got everything figured out. Im going to get a universal x from summit, 2 knock off single chamber flowmasters, but how much does it normally cost to get them installed? I can take off the stock exhaust myself, I just need them to weld on the mufflers and put on the hangers. How much does that normally cost?

I just had my tru duals done on my WS6 and it wasn't bad at all ran me about $400 from a local muffler shop installed. That included from the headers back using 2.5 pipe and going over the axle and all the way out the back. I supplied them with an x-pipe, mufflers, cats, and tips and they took care of the rest.

Here is a link I posted with some pics and a sound clip.

^^^i agree with this guy. maybe less if you get a good deal. btw, the summit x pipe kit is not even close to being enough pipe to do TDs and there isn't near enough bends either. its more of a starting point.....ask me how i know.

well I would dump them at the axle. So all that I would have to do it get them to fit up to the headers right? and then just weld on the mufflers and some hangers.

250 for my duals, they supplied the dynomax bullets and made their own H pipe with 2.5 piping from the headers back. cant beat that, but 400 is absolutely reasonable for a custom set of duals or you could always go the TSP route
