I'm, eventually wanting to get headers, hi flow cat converter and decent cat back exhaust. I found great deals on ebay and just wondering how much I should expect to pay for installation and where I should take my car and parts to? Will any shop do all these or do I have to go to a muffler/exhaust shop, then somewhere else for header installations?
Are high flow cat converters legal, I don't want to buy it if no one will install it due to emmision standards. Thanks.

Moving's not much of an option right now, but if anybody's had experience paying for installations please let me know. I found all parts on ebay, I just don't have a garage, time or experience with this type of work. Thanks.

Dude just do it yourself you dont need a garage and you barely need experience, just a few ratchets and sockets and jackstands are the only things you need, you'll save alot of money

^^^I agree - Better (more expensive) headers have a better fit and are easier to install. You'll still smash a few knuckles and cuss a lot while you're installing, but it's not that difficult to do. It just takes some sweat and elbow grease. Otherwise I'd guess about $150-$300 for labor to install the header and the rest.
