Default Test Pipe INstallation?

Hey guys,

Would any of you guys be down to install my test pipes for a small price? If you are interested, whether its for the money or just for fun, even though i know tp installations are NOT fun haha, just send me a pm with your asking price and i will let you know. Some shops are charging me ridiculous amounts and I wanted to ask the z community. If not, any good/cheap shops you recommend? I also need to re-install gaskets on my hks because my previous shop installed 3 inch gaskets instead of the hks piping of 2.25-2.36inch gaskets. Thanks.

What test pipes did you get?

If you were local, I'd do it for some beer!

Hey guys, update:

First off I want to thank those who sent me suggestions of great shops around the area, and those who offered to install test pipes. But I got my test pipes installed today by a forum member VolkZ, his name is Joe. Not only was his asking price RIDICULOUSLY cheap, but his work and professionalism was just incredible. He went out of his way to get my test pipes installed on short notice. I just found my new mechanic/shop for all my future car mods, so if any of you guys need car installations near the OC or Riverside area, this is the guy to go to. I will be taking my coils to him to install :]

O btw, i got the cnt res test pipes installed and they are a perfect combo with my hks true duals. I regret I didn't do this before. The welds on the cnt are top notch, I also have some detailed pics for those hesitant to order cnt products. Just the right amount of volume increase, a bit louder during idle and normal driving, screams at wot.
