Your garage or parking spot with a jack a wrench and a little soapy water. Shouldn't take more than 30 minutes

Don't do that, unless you are a professional, then do it.

Go to OC Mufflers if you are in Irvine Newport, they are off 16th street.

Or Go to LMS if you are more inland.

Dynamic Autosports if you are near Lake Forest. They do a great job, and have been around for a long time. I personally have bought (and had installed) many, many things from them, springs, sway bars, turbos, intercooler systems, etc.

installing exhaust does not require a professional, it just requires some basic car knowledge you can obtain from reading online. buy the tools and do it yourself, you'll then realize how easy it really is.

its really really REALLY easy if you want to save some money.. all you do is unbolt 2 bolts and slide 6 of the rubber thing that holds the exhaust... and that's it.. doesnt take a rocket sciencetist to figure this out.. unless you dont want to get your hands dirty or don't have the time to do it then let a shop do it for you

time? i would assume it would take 3-5 times longer just to take it to a shop, the initial call to the shop, drop off the car, waiting at the mechanics to get it installed, inspecting their work, getting checked out... haha

installing it yourself should take 20-30mins flat.

it takes 15 mins to install it. tools needed are two-14mm box wrenches or sockets and some wd-40 to lube the hanger. too bad you aren't located in norcal, because my 13 year old daugther would install it for you for 30 bucks.
