Exhaust Installation - Fair Pricing ?

[rockman20]

The price sounds good, just be careful.

Just because she knows what she is talking about, doesn't mean the monkey that just got out of jail, working in the shop, knows a dang thing about what he should do.

The price is cheap. Exhaust on my Cutlass cost me around 300 bucks with mufflers. Full 3 inch with some very LOUD glasspacks.

When I first had the exhaust done (2.25 pipe and turbo mufflers) a shop charged me 120 bucks. Seemed too good to be true. It was. The system leaked. Took it in. Still leaked so I take it in again. This time I hit a bump and thought I tore the entire thing off. They had one hanger on the tailpipes and this is it. So they fixed that and supposedly the leaks. The welds looked like crap and it still leaked but if I would of taken my car there one more time, I would of shoved the entire assembly up their arse. They seemed intelligent, but I don't think the people I talked to were the ones who worked on it.

I paid more at the other shop, but I like them. They will let me sit back there with them and watch them work. (Just don't let OSHA know!) I get to inspect all welds and everything while it is on the hoist and before it even leaves the shop. I get to tell them before any money is handed out what I think of the system.

Just be careful.
