Help finding a shop to install my exhaust

Anyone know of any good shops to get an exhaust installed in the 253/206 area?

+1 for DIY. If you can get good clearance under the car this is a pretty straight-forward install. Another option is to find someone that would help you for a fee (whether that be money, a 6-pack, etc.).

You can get a jack/jackstands at schucks for less than $100. Are they the best in the world? No, but it will get you in the air. Best of luck whichever way you go. Are you going to the Deception Pass cruise tomorrow? You might find someone that would be willing to help you out.

Lame! Weak!
Go get your hands dirty. Drive one side of your car on a big curb and get under there.

^So you are just doing a catback? Basically a muffler/tip and associated piping? Theoretically you could also cut it yourself - just measure twice cut once. So do you have piping clamps (can't think of another term for them)?

Go to the cruise tomorrow and we can help you or at least solidify your next steps. I'm not familiar with the new Lancers first hand, but there will be enough people there to take a look, and possibly some X or new Lancer owners.

Oh, I was under the impression you had an Evo.

I thought it was a TBE, those things are easy to put in.

Didn't know you had a Lancer.

Nevertheless its pretty much the same concept.
