[QUOTE="Carey Frennier, post: 843261, member: 66764"] I know you can install a brand new system for $200. So it's $120 and two hours of driving time? How much in fuel cost does that burn? Do you plan on returning the vehicle to stock someday or leaving this new exhaust on it until it rots off? Is this guys system a full catback or a custom catback system? In other words, did he buy it as a pre-fab bolt in package or did he have it build by a local exhaust shop or himself? Bolt in systems have better residual value but they cost like twice the price of a custom made system and they will net you the same gain. Honestly, I'd pass. Check with our site supporter explorerexpress.com. Performancepeddler.com sells the parts dirt cheap. Check with your local Midas for custom pipe (s) cost from muffler back. Show them the pictures you have and ask how much it will cost. Midas is also an authorized Flowmaster dealer. They may cut you a break in labor and they will negotiate pricing of their products but you have to show them the black and white! Do your homework before you throw away two hours of your life and $120+. [/QUOTE]
