Question Borla Mufflers

I'm having some borla mufflers put on this weekend and was wondering what was too much to pay? I'll post a vid after I get them on. Thanks.

If you go to 5 different shops, don't be surprised to get 5 wildly different quotes...I would shop around as each market will be different...It's a pretty quick and easy job but often shops will charge you an hours labor per side even though it takes 30mins total...Others see a Jaguar and simply triple their normal rates...

A big factor will most likely be if you want unbolt the OEM muffler at the clamp which is over a foot of tubing in front of the muffler (advantage is you can easily go back to OEM) or if you're just having them cut just behind the muffler and clamping/welding on the borla to the OEM pre-muffler tubing (usually cheaper)
