Midas Muffler Installation

[twiceasfastasyou]

last question, for those who got a muffler installed for a cavalier, preferably the Rally Sport 1998, how long did it take, and how much was the cost for labor and whatnot?

thanks

Depends on how busy they are and how good the welder is. Price depends on your location. I think I spent somewhere around $60 for the installation because they made the custom piece to make the muffler inlet fit the exhaust pipe. Wish I had a catback now, but oh well. That'll come later I guess.

I'd say $50-60 is reasonable and to be expected.

damn... midas charged me 75 because they had to cut my old muffler off and put a conversion pipe in... oh well, now my cavalier sounds like a muscle car, kickass!

Why didnt you just do it yourself? At first I didnt think I was going to be able to do mine by myself but once I took a look at things and got the general idea of it it was a snap. I dont even have any exhaust leaks.

Midas will rip you off my friend....

I was quoted 80 for them to just slap a pipe on my car. Cole muffler put my old one on for 2o even, and RDfabs will be doing my next one... at cost for tubing.

I would not put one on myself b/c what happens if a peice of pipe is rusted and now you have to get that peice. that could be an extra 5-10 bucks or so plus 2 c clamps. Now, keep in mind, if you do not weld, water could get in there and make the pipe rust alot quicker. Thats just me. My 2 cents.
