Downpipes Installer near Peabody, MA?

I335 · 11-23-2010, 11:01 AM

Anyone know of a reasonably priced downpipes installer near Peabody, MA? I'm getting prices all over the map (well, I got 2 prices so far) - 1st price was $300-$400 and the second was $525. Both are excellent shops but I'm seeing $200 all over the forum. Any recommendations from the folks around here?

No, I didn't get a quote from Turner - hadn't thought of that - thanks. I'll give them a call but I'm guessing they're not going to be cheap but you never know. Thanks again!

I actually did call Lou's BMW - they're almost within walking distance from my house. The guy I talked to didn't even know what downpipes are - he said "do you mean headers?" - I was floored. I heard good things about them but I'm not bringing it there after that conversation. SV is an interesting thought. Also, I spoke with tvieira24 who has done quite a few sets of DPs and he said he'd give me a great deal so I may end up going with him. He sounds like a great guy with some good knowledge and experience - the only issue there is that it's an hour away and I'm just so busy with work these days I'm not sure if I can afford to take that much time off. That said, he was nice enough to offer either a night or a weekend which I really appreciate.

Hey thanks Artie - that's an interesting thought as well but Concord is a bit of a drive as well. Do you have any experience with this place or do you know how much they charge for DP's?

Chip is the real deal. One of the best BMW guys I know. Dyno'd at his old shop a couple years back with my 335.

Thanks - maybe I'll give them a buzz too. They say they have loaners on their web site so that's a major plus. I know Turner does too...

I can install for the $200 price range, Sunday's are the day I usually work on cars.

What's the rough installation time to replace downpipes?
