Default where do you guys get exhaust work done?

local shops, chain shops?

the chains around here (meinke, etc) want nothing to do w/ custom exhaust work, neither do most small shops

the small shops that do make custom exhaust seem to be crazy expensive...where are you guys getting exhausts made for $200??

just to get 2 02 sensor bungs welded on my header they want $60

1/2 hour labor = $30
2 bungs = $5
shop costs = $25 bucks
$60

what's the problem? sounds reasonable to me.

Could always get your own welder and do it yourself.

..trying to get my own welder

taking some time tho as im trying to get a good used one rather than a crappy new one

i already have the bungs...maybe i will drill the holes myself and then take it in like that....should bring the price down a little...it wont take more then 10 min to weld it then (although probably paying for 30min anyway)
