pricing on header install
good luck finding a shop to install a ORY most wont even touch a cars exhaust without cats, but header install usually will run you about 400-500 or less if you can find a good shop in your area. dont take it to midas or any of those places they will rape you on prices.

True that. And they usually do a half assed job as well. Where you at ?? Is there one of the board sponsors local to ya ?
If not, you may want to do it yourself. It's not really that hard, you will have a blast, say some bad words, skin you knuckles a few times, and get to drive to the exhaust shop w/ open headers to get the Y installed. BUT...you will save about 400.00

I would also suggest to do it yourself, its a lot easier than you think. Start to finish installing my headers was about 8 hours if I remember right. The passenger side slipped right in which suprised me and the driver side I had to use the BFH mod on the firewall to get it in all the way, oh and I also had to change the oil while I was at it since the filter had to come off.

or the correct tools so if money is no problem pay someone and save time and a headache.I don't mind learning though by helping someone else and then doing it myself.

WOW those prices are high. I was quoted $250 from a sponsor here so I guess I should count my blessings. Then again I am buying the headers and ory from them as well so they might be taking that into consideration.
For $400-500 I would have to consider doing it yourself. Or post up in the regional section that applies to you and offer $200 + Pizza + beer and I bet you get someone who has done it before to help ya
Good Luck
