Default # of Hrs for S4 Down pipe/cat back installation

Anyone go through this installation or have a mechanic install a full exhaust? Curious what it cost and how many hrs it took.

I heard 4-5 hrs and then 10hrs from another source.

Thanks in advance

Default hahaha really.. so it's 1/4 the time of a full Stage III kit.. hmmm

I have heard $500.00 and I think that's fair. The Catback should just be thrown in.

The shop I was talking to said they didn't drop the tranny to do it but do move some **** around.

A mechanic at Audi of Alex, VA said you need to pull the motor, LOL.

Default Since we bill out labor time based on one tech, it will obviously take longer than with two people.

Plus, we attach a 12 month/12 thousand mile warranty to all our work.
