#of hours required for Europipe Install
Can someone give me a reasonable expectation of how many hours I'd be charged for a Europipe install? Planning on getting this done in May once I take my car out of storage. I thought i was looking at about a 5 hour labor charge, but I've been quoted more. Not looking for the cheapest install, just want to make sure it's reasonable. (not that much ever is on these cars!)
thanks in advance

I am including removing the rear apron/bumper, intercoolers, old exhaust and straps (incl. cats), O2 sensors...and replacing all. Not including the potential broken bolts or frozen O2 sensors...but normal install.
Good luck.

No its not necessary...tools Stef includes with his second to none exhaust will lead you to do the job at around 3 to 4 hours without any rush...if you think you are quoted a lot find a friend with some stands and a jack...

Did the install myself. It was my first time wrenching on this car and it took 8hrs of fidgeting. If I did it again 4-5hrs would be enough. Stef's tools make a difference.

Everyone has their own process for doing any work effort....I find it much easier to give yourself as much access as possible..And again, in this case, it is a 5 minute investment.
See pics below.and make your own call..

Like TheRock said removing the intercoolers makes the job so much easier of removing the exhaust system especially when removing the top 2 nuts from where the exhaust flange connects to the turbos which in my eyes is the best way to fit a system properly.
But yes it can be done without removing!
