You would have better luck posting in the regional forums, or just putting it on yourself. The exhaust shops cannot removed anything emissions related, or they get a huge fine if caught.

i wish mine was that easy. after having Meineke torch the cat bolts off and fighting with the flange bolts, re-running the O2 sensor wire, and then fighting to tighten that one bolt by the curve in the pipe (you guys who installed it know what i mean), it actually took us 2 nights to do it, cuz we just ran out of light and patience. i wish i had a lift.

but yeah, the regional forums may help you out a lot, and i think guys like Irish and Soonerfan and Puppetmaster are in that area, maybe they can help ya out, for a small price.

Would have been a lot nicer if the 9 bolts weren't buckets of rust.

If you can wait a few weeks I might can help you. I live outside Annapolis area. Did mine and it was easy you just need the right tools for leverage on the rusties. I will say I had left my lower cross support off because Warpspeed was hitting and just need spacers to replace it with clearance. Might be a good excuse for me to do that to mine while I help you out. I just had a baby on the 6th so free time right now is short.
