i'm assuming that just the price of the part may be another 800$$ to install? right?

EDIT: i dont know if thats inc labor... or not so... dont blame me for wrong info... i guess i should rephrase... i'm asking the question: is that including labor?

800 to drop your engine, unless there is a trick idk about it, it will be a little more.

For those of you that purchase these from us i will offer an installed price! I don't know what that will be yet... But for those that I ship to they will be between 1500 and 1800..

Remember everyone, these are prototypes. I have not finished welding them yet nor have they been on a stock car. I need a completely stock car to double check fitment before i finish weld them. I think splat will most likely be the first one.

^^ They look Good Andy!!!

How long till they get installed on a Stock / OEM IS-F to see how the ECU feels about the primary cats being deleted ??
and of course gain numbers...

Also, let me know if you need a manufacturer for them...
(IF you don't have one lined up already)

Have you even tested them yet to see if a CEL appears. Unless you have done something that your not mentioning it will pull a CEL the second you start it but it won't pop up for about 100 miles or so. Good luck though.
