WTF, high install price for a muffler install.. w/ pics and vids
Just a little rant I suppose. I dropped my truck off to have a Corsa muffler installed. I dropped it off thinking it would be about 50-70 bucks, or less to have them do the job. I told them to dump it, but they swore that would be too loud. My little guy does ride in his seat right above the muffler. I figured since it was lifted it would be ok. Well, they said they can run a pipe over the axle and then tuck it away so I don't see it. Thats all I really wanted, just not to see any exhaust. Well, I just got a call from the shop and they told me $180.00 for the work. Seems a BIT high don't you think? I am leaving work now to go pick it up. I will be sure to question such a high price, but damn, I should of just bought a cat-back and installed it myself. I KNOW I should of taken it to the cheap-o Midas again. Thats who installed my Magnaflow for 45.75. I heard good things about the shop that just raped me, oh well. I will report back.
