Is there a place in San Jose you would recommend to install an xpipe resonator delete on my 2016 GT?

Quality of work is more important than cost, but I dont want to overpay either lol

How much would something like that cost? I bought the Ford racing kit with no welding required and should drop right in.

Thanks!

Is it just the Resonator Delete pipe? It can legitimately be done with a sawzall or a grinder equipped with a cutting blade in a matter of 30 minutes to an hour.

Off the record, I installed one in a customer's garage on a 2016 which I had never wrenched on before.

Easy stuff.

Your best bet would be to pay a mechanic to do it for you off the books.
Most shops won't touch stuff like that.

There used to be a shop in Roseville that would handle work like this but I doubt they do anymore.

if you don't have access to a sawzall or grinder w/a cut off wheel... take it to any exhaust shop.

the x pipe/resonator delete is all after cat and doesn't affect smog.
