Just want to know how much would people normally charge to install exhaust? is $80/hour expensive?

 

I think that is a normal price for a dealer, actually how long should it take to install an exhaust...an hour?

 

I'm not sure.. by the way, i'm not installing the exhaust in a dealer. I'm installing it at my friend's performance shop. so, what is the typical labor cost per hour in a performance shop?

 

Really depends on the shop. Ive seen shops charge anywhere from $55 to $100
per hour most falling around $85/hour.

Installing exhaust is not hard to do...you should get someone to help you
install it yourself.

 

so shops no matter what they are working on charges the same amount for labor. whether it be front lip, tires, sways, short shifter? correct?

 

Yah, pretty much unless they need special equipment to do the work...
but the parts you listed, should be the same.

 

Melbourne's delaer wants to charge me 200$ for a 1 hour job! Its just running a cable from fuse box through the a-pillar and drilling a small hole on the roof for a speed detector to be hooked up there. NO FUKING WAY! I went to another place and they quoted me 50$ and I had to ask again because I couldnt believe hearing 50 after hearing 200.

 

Yeah...$50 labor is about right for exhaust, that's what my buddy charges for his service.

 

anywhere from $50- $???. it depends if it's a custom setup. if it's just a bolt on exhaust system (e.g. injen, stillen, fujitsubo+ypipe, greddy, etc), then it shouldn't exceed $80.
