usually muffler shops are the ones to install them... if you're wanting to actually get a real noticable difference out of them, get a full cat-back exhaust installed... shouldn't cost you anymore than $250 for the piping and labor, then you have to pay for the mufflers too...

Depending on what you want to do, I'd go with a dual exhaust setup like stock, but with free flowing mufflers like Apexi' N1s or Dynomax UltraFlows and 2.5" or 3.0" piping... since you've got the bigger 4.0L V8... I'd do the 2.5", 3" will get you more top end power, but you'll lose a little bit of low end grunt...

if you go witha single, get a single 3"

Hellasboy has dual N1s with stock piping installed on his car, he's got a soundclip of it somewhere... 400 series Lexus cars when uncorked sound like a ZR1 or a Ferrari (if you remove the cat )

Before you buy into this Global Warming Scam; understand this: CO2 has been shown to not be the cause of global warming but a symptom of it. In other words, CO2 is not a "greenhouse gas".
