You'll get plenty of quotes, but noone ever seems to have them in. CustomMaxima.com has a price for five something.

Sounds like a good deal!! As far as installation was concerned, did ya do it yourself? If so, how long did it take? Was it difficult? If not, how much did you pay to have it installed? My mechanic says he'll charge me about $50 or so, which I think would be pretty fair. Any comments on the performance?

The install was very easy. The only snag is getting the rear of the car off the ground enough to get the rear section in. You have to angle the muffler down to fit the pipe and flange through the suspension. You'll need more height than ramps. I was still able to get it done in the driveway with a 2 ton floor jack, jack stands, and some blocks of wood. It took about an hour. If you have access to a lift, it will only take about 30 min.

Performance wise, i noticed it pulled through the rpm's quicker. Plus the sound is awesome. Nice low rumble at idle and normal driving, then a throaty sound at WOT. It gets loud at WOT but, nowhere close to any of the rice rockets running around.

MiniRX7, I had the Evo on a previous car. It was ran through a winter up here in Maine. When i went to take it of, there was a little rust on the flanges and hardware. That was about it. I believe GReddy has a 3 year rust through warranty. If you want it to last for the life of the car, go with a full stainless exhaust.
