Default Funny ****

Hey i called up sum muffler shop in che chicagoland area, and the guy told me to to install long tube's and an ory will cost me $560 and it will take them 2 days at the least. **** THAT i'm doin it in my backyard. just thought i'd let u guys know that. But i do have a question, is it hard to fit the ory on there? cuz i heard many people have fitment problems.

the ory is a bitch but it isnt impossible, you'll look at it for 15 minutes lie "What the ****??" when you attmept ot put it on, but other than that its no big deal. And headers definitely isnt worth $560 and 2 days worth of labor, its about a 3-5 hour job if you're BSing the whole time. I ran to autozone 3 times and it still barely went past 6 hours, even with a break for food.

It took me a week to do, but i worked on it about a hour or so a night. I took my time and triple checked the install. Get a 10mm and 11mm ratchet wrench, u will be glad u did. Get the front end of the car as high as it will go. The *** end of my car was almost touching the ground. Good luck.....

It's pretty easy to do. There are a lot of writeups out there that will walk you through it. Good luck.

$500+ is the going rate around here. Takes about a half day to do them. Lift makes it easy.
