Default How much to get o2 bung welded?

How much does it cost to get an o2 bung welded on?

Id like to go back to closed loop and still have a wideband.

Is it safe to have a muffler shop drill and install it with the pipe on the car? Im worried about the metal shavings. (assume they would blow right out)

I walked into the shop and said I've only got $10 bucks in my pocket.
said it's yours if you can drill and weld this into this spot right here.

done and done.

$20 bucks for mine to get welded in at a exhaust shop that does custom work. Midas wanted $65 bucks I laughed and hung up.

I had mine done for $30 at a local shop. He griped about it being harder cause it was stainless.
