I reckon this is a bit over the top but you guys can tell me anyhow. I got a full exhaust system priced up for my EL XR8.
Pacemaker headers $1050 Hi flow straight through cats $380 EACH!!! 3" mild steel exhaust including twin tip $450 or 3" stainless steel exhaust including twin tip $650 So all up that would be $2260 for mild steel or $2460 for stainless. F**k considering it costs under $1000 for a straight 6. I know there is more material and two cats etc but s**t, 2 1/2 times more than a straight 6? What would be a fair price for a system for a V8? |

I wanted to look into this 2...do u huys reckon it wont be a benefit for the 8 to run 3" like a i6 would.
That price i guess is hexy the jump from mild steel to stainless want much which is odd

I payed $550 for pacemaker extractors on ebay and $120 for install, $200 each for 2 magnaflow hi flow 2.5'' cats and $400 for the rest of the twin 2.5'' system (mild steel) all installed. then $200 for 2.5'' stainless steel single system and $40 for stainless dump pipe all installed!
So $1510 all up and it sounds sweet! I reakon over 2000g is too much, especially 1000 for extractors. |

Headers are over priced Tim. Should cost less than that just for the headers.

Pete,
3" magna flow cats should cost you about $300 each (I got mine for $280 for both  )
Headers (pacies) were $600 IIRC So you are getting ripped with those quotes. I probably would pay the extra $200 for the stainless exhaust |

I agree with everyone here, so far.
Around $600 for the Headers, plus labour. The cats can vary so much in price, but if they're stinging you $1,000 for the Headers, they're probably ripping into you for the cats too. Locally here, you could get a full exhaust with tip for around $400, in mild steel. |

cats shouldnt come in more than $300ea. and thats for richie riches! go with an ebay set of paceys, find a good zorst shop who will fit em dirt cheap, save a couple hundred easy.. as for the 3" that sounds fair. the twin tips emselves can be $100 or so sometimes..

I'm gonna wait for an exhaust. I'd rather spend $2200 on the engine than the exhaust. Its already got ELGT headers and a 3" exhaust.

I spent 1650 on my exhaust all up, but thats because i run the larger 4-1 comp pacemakers. It would have been 1400-1500 if i had of used the more common tri-y paceys....
$900 for Pacemaker 4-1 Comps (fitted) $300 for two 2.5" XForce cats (fitted) $450 for Lukey 3" cat back |

Mick Webb (who's expensive) charges $1800 for a full exhaust, with HM headers. Stainless to the cats and mild steel from the cats back... Includes tip.

I have been getting quotes around brisbane and I have had a few for $1250 for pacemaker headers and 2.5" twin system but use the current cats. Also had one for $1450 one for $2000 and one for $2500 so i guess u just gotta shop around.

F@rk! I got two quotes for my V8, both are unfitted and include freight. Difillipo $2100 for stainless headers & cats then mild steel, or $2700 for full stainless. Herrods, $2300 for stainless headers and cats and mild steel. I think that both these prices are rediculous considering I have to pay someone to fit them but I want a decent exhaust so I would pay it....has anyone received similar prices from these companies?
