Sounds allright, I got a qoute for $250.00. But I went to school with the guy. But I had went to this ricer shop and they said like 300.

Sounds about right however if you go to a muffler shop there are guys that will bend is for you and really chea-ply, -problem is that they could be using really shitty piping.

Im sure the quality of the piping isnt going to matter, it isnt really holding back much pressure. The rubber fittings would fail long before even the cheapest steel used for IC pipes. That quote does sound a bit high, Just get some pipes bent and hook it up yourself lol. And get an N/A power steering resovoir and hook that up, so you can run a radiused accordian hose instead of the switch back hose. Better flow! plus it looks cool. Im getting my IC pipes done by an exhaust shop soon, So ill let you know how it goes.
