300 for extractors. 70 for fitting and temp welding leaves $480 on a 2" system. Still 200 more than i got quoted for pretty much the same in 2 1/4" :)

That is a bit over the top maybe you could get your Dad or a male friend to get a quote for you Bianca. I hate it when people try to rip people off.

don't forget the inlet manifold has to modded slightly to fit the extractors.. i know mine has too

Dunno what extractors your running but you shouldnt have to mod anything, let alone the intake

330 for exhaust, 300 for extractors and around 170 to fit extractors.

HOLY SHIT thats wayy to expensive!!!!

 

is that the cheapest you can find???

id be ringing around more!

 

not exactly sure but the dude who did the extractors on my car to 2" paid about $350-$400 about 1 month ago!!

if you look at the flange on the extractors, and the flange on the stock exhaust mani... they are different slightly. the extractors wont fit in properly unless you grind away near the bolts holes on the inlet manifold. ive heard of others having to do this as well.

 

Also some times the extractor flange is thicker or thinner then the inlet one so you will have to get it shaved a bit, otherwise one manifold will tighten on harder then the other.

so for Christmas my dad decided to buy me an orbital polisher as well as some cut and polish so i spent most of today giving it a go, managed to get most of the imperfections out especially a lot of the scratches that had recently appeared from being in car parks.

 

Looks Shmick... Good work.

 

Any plans on lowering it later down the track?

ooohhh nice and shiney :)

Why lower, its a rally car :)

 

I do think your quote for your exhaust is a bit much. I had mine done for $330 exhaust (inc. cannon. $170 without) and $330 for extractors.

 

Shop around, there've got to be dozens of exhaust shops around down there. Maybe try getting your dad to shop around for you incase they are trying to rip you off cause your a chick.

it would be a shit load cheaper if they didnt want to charge me like $170 to fit the extractors I'm gettin off mick.

 

and i think like 330 for a 2inch system, with a resonator and sports muffler plus chrome tip doesn't sound too bad.

Looking good!

 

I haven't read where you are getting your quotes from, but do you have a Mettams Mufflers where you are??

 

I found them to be very resonably priced.

 

Just checked, nope only in WA :)

i went to everlast where benzo recommended. o wells.

Extractors I'll fit for a 6 pack of JD's and Cola ;)

Well there's a good quote... don't pay till the jobs done! ;)
