You can do it yourself for about $15-$20 bucks for the 90 degree 2.5" elbow with flared ends.

Maybe 2 - 2.5" pipe clamps might cost about $3-$6 bucks each??! This way you will avoid having to weld.

Just mark the elbow, then cut out the passanger side exhaust....then install elbow and pipe clamps.

Should only cost around $25 bucks!

I also got my $14 dollar 2.5" cone filter in and with the one ball mod he car is more responsive and the charger whines more!!

I can send pics of both if anybody is interested.

WOW 150-200!!! Have they looked under the car, you dont need to drop the exhaust or anything. The shop that did mine put it on the lift, hopped under with a sawzall, hacked the resonator out, did a quick bend with flared ends and some welding. That price just seems wrong! I was in and out in 30-40 min, unless they have a 400/hr labor rate thats just not right....thievery!!!!!!!!!!!!
