It was in for the day...took it in night before so they could lube up the bolts.
The cost was $600 plus tax...They take the rear bumper off and did all the work. Certainly more expensive than other posts but once i heard the sound from my perspective it was worth it.

Almost $700?!?!? WOW!

And I thought $250 was a lot when my buddy had it done in Kitchener in SS but he took the mufflers off at home. 1 hour to take it off and another to put it back on, and this is all done on the ground without lifting the car.

I get it...I wish I was a great mechanic and could do all that work myself. In reality I could have taken the mufflers off but it would have taken me a heck of amount of time and effort! I did drive the car to work today and had a smile on my face the whole time...It was worth the money best investment I have made in the car...I should have done it earlier and Matt did a great job at GT Customs...

There will always be someone who will do the job better, cheaper but at the end of the day I am happy...Cheers

You're tempting me with comments like this. But I think what I will do is go the sharkwerks xpipe route first because it may end up saving a few bucks and hopefully something I can do myself.

If you want to save a few $ there are better ways if you can diy a little

You are in Markham correct? I work in Markham around Hwy7 and Warden. The weather is nice this week I will be driving the vehicle you can hear it yourself and make the call. Cheers

Yup, and I work from home so I'm here all the time. I'm on your way home even! I'm in the 9th line / 7 area.

Just pulled the the trigger on quickjacks so probably won't mess with exhaust just yet, but hearing it would still be awesome!

I think I might still go xpipe first because it's reversible and seems easy to DIY. Sharkwerks should have theirs ready mid-month this month.

send me a PM!

I work in that part of Markham and would love to hear your exhaust too, perhaps we can meet for a quick coffee after work this week, let me know. The old future shop parking lot next McDonald seems to be a good spot

I just added Top Gear 200 cell cats to my Gundo mufflers, it sounds so sweet now. Very nice build quality and a bargain compared to the bigger name brands.
