I took mine off myself, and the local shop charged me $20 to cut the pipe and weld the cutout in. This is mine.

Shouldn't be anymore than mine, it's like a foot and a half from the downpipe, if they have to use their lift and take it off themselves' they'll charge more. Of course, if they do, it'll be a proper fit and not a guess on how to face the cutout.

2.5"... It's what the rest of the MagnaFlow plumbing is, even though I only have the mufflers installed.
