WTK: Average cost to have headers installed
Just bought some Kooks & cats to install on my 06 A6 convertible. I installed long tubes on my C5 myself without a lift but might shell out the coins to have someone else install mine this time around.
Just curious what people paid for install. One tuner shop told me $500.00. What's your experience?

to do the headers,x and cats back to the muffler the labor value should be around 3 hours i would guess (actually with a lift it takes about 1.5 hours in reality) I dont know what their labor value is but that seems high to me.
I would do some shopping around because it really is an easy job 9if you have a lift) and with good fitting parts goes pretty quick. If yo uwere closer stop by and we will knock it out. Good luck, paul
