Your SubTotal: $325.10 + Two (24215 Dynomax Bullets $39.95ea) = $405.00

So I've decided to just remove the last 2 cats and run my setup from there. I ordered the X-Pipe, 2 Bullets, and tips. I then went to the local shop to see if they would do the work. They had no problem removing the rear cats, but they would have to remove my headers in order to weld the pipe after the first set of cats since they are so close together?! This doesn't sound right to me. In addition to that, they said that the cost would be too much and that I should just purchase a "cat back system".
So for those of you who have true duals installed/custom bent, how much did it cost?
I crawled under the truck with the guy when he was explaining it to me and there's maybe 3"-4" from the last cat to the O2 sensor. And it seems to me that any person with decent welding skills should be able to weld this.
At $70/hr the shop claimed it wouldn't be worth it for me to have them hassle with setup. Mind you this is a custom shop that does some very nice work.
Any suggestions?

I'm also looking to do the same sort of thing to my 5.4L...I'm all for whatever would help get me as close to a mustang gt sound as humanly possible. A buddy of mine has an X pipe set up and it's alright but he is still convinced that my simple SIDO set up sounds better. If I go with the H-pipe set up I will post a video in the coming weeks.
