update: broken flex pipe
hey i posted a few days ago about a deafening exaust, and it turns out it was just the flex pipe that broke. the shop i took it to quoted me 330, does that sounds reasonable? and while they were in there reminded me of the leaking cam chain tensioner ($337), right front axle ($231) and some other stuff which i want to try and do myself, fuel filter/breaks (this is my first car, never done work like this before, but i want to learn). so let me know what you think of these prices. thanks a lot.

any muffler shop should be able to fix it for a lot less than that quote...
I had a custom magnaflow exhaust made and installed on my silver A4 for around $400 or less, don't quite remember.

if youre around mass it will cost you 80 bucks or so to have a shop weld it
i had quotes for parts and labor ranging from 100 to 180 and them telling me the part costs 40-80 dollars. find a place that will do it and tell them yo uwill bring the part, get out of the whole thing for 100 or less
