Labor to install bypass pipes?

I am looking for rates to install fabspeed bypass pipes. I have seen quotes from 4-5 hrs to a day and a half. What have most of you paid?
Thanks

muffler bypass or cat bypass...muffler bypass pipes, including removal of the mufflers takes less than an hour for a boob who hasn't done it before


...I can now do it in less than a 1/2 hour..

If they know what there doing it should not exceed $70. If they quote you more than that they are cleary inexperienced.

can the bypass pipes be used in unison with the certain mufflers/exhaust? i.e. Supersprint?

How much wheel hp do you get from the bypass pipes? For those who have them does it resonate while at cruising speeds?
