When he got the car on the lift he decided that straight pipes were the way to go and dropped his price to $150.

Almost everyone I know got straight pipes and advised me to do the same....and I did....and I am happy...

You're being charged way to much either way...

When you say they... do you mean Mufflex?

Regardless, I will revisit the pricing with them.

Are you happy with the x-pipe?
I think overall I am noticing about 10 - 15% more sound. The cars are decently insulated so it is more outside than in. I am happy with the sound as a daily driver. If I were doing it for "fun" Id love to hear a bit louder and deeper.
