Tubi exhaust intallation cost

Just wondering if anyone would know how much it should cost to install a Tubi exhaust on the cayman. Just recieved it from UPS and have been quoted $250.00 by one place and another shop said $80.00 / hour.
what do you guys think?
thanks

Depends how much of the system you have brought? Headers back or just the rear section. If everything goes well 2hours max should do it for the full system or 1 hour for the rear section but if there are some fitting issues and the fitters need to re-fabricate the system a bit it could take a lot longer. Its always a good bet to get a company to fit it for you that regualrly fits aftermarket exhausts as they should be able to deal with any unforseen problems. Try to get a fixed quote from the fitter rather than the cost per hour.

Finally intalled it today. It cost me $120.00. I found a muffler shop close to my house and the guy was really nice and friendly and really experienced. I took about 1.5 hours. I just must say, the sound is incredible. I did not even want to return home this evening. It is funny how many cars were trying to race me on the street.
