Default Price on Longtube install and where?

I am looking to buy some long tube headers. probably the pacesetters i have seen good reviews on them, and i was debating the qtp's, but anyway i want to know how much i should expect to pay to have them installed, i have asked a local shop and they said $700. Also where do you suggest to get them put in??? Its just the headers and y pipe. They are saying it will take over 10 hours and i don't want to pay $700 header install on $500 headers. NEED HELP, want to go faster!!!

yeah i would just call every place you can to get prices. Are you sure you cant do it self cause you could save alot of money. and you could always just have it towed to a shop if you get stuck or something

i really don't want to deal with it, i haven't done any work like this, just installing intakes exhausts and lots of stereos, so i would prefer not to do it, unless its too much

save money do it yourself....500 is too much as well...I could see maybe 300 being reasonable..

I know a guy in Ashland, KY that might be able to help you out. Last I talked to him, he said he was wrapped up in some projects though

Brian i pm'd you. I would rather pay someone to do it and not have to really help them, If i had seen it done before i would be all about it but i would just be a spectator anyway. thanks for the help keep them coming.
