Where/Who installed your Exhaust/HFC?

Critical will do it for $150. He'll do it right. Otherwise, you know where he lives.

Warning: You get what you pay for.

You have a Z -- treat it like your girlfriend. Don't go to Wendy's on a date.

The $180 price was HFC alone. I have gotten my exhaust installed before at many places for around $80-$100. But this time around those shop didn't want to touch my HFC lol. I did find a shop that is willing to do the HFC install for $120.

Step 1: find shop that is within the budget.
Step 2: ask said shop if they have experience with the Z
Step 3: read up on demon bolt.


That is a great deal.

It's hard to find a shop with a reasonable price. Even then, many shops aren't willing to touch the stock cats.

If anyone knows a shop that does it cheaper than $120, please let me know. I'm not in a rush to install the HFC.

Fast Intention is installing my CBE, so I only need the HFC installed.

any shop that knows what they're doing will charge you 200+. it's not easy. you need to use hand tools, not impacts or you'll shatter the bolts.
