Default Exhaust Cost

Just wondering what you guys paid to have your exhaust done. Whether is be buying the parts offline and then bringing it to a shop or buying everything from a ship and have it all welded there, but what did it cost you. I am trying to figure out what will be cheaper. Having one welded in buy a muffler shop or buying a bolt on catback and doing it myself.

FYI. I plan on going 1 in to 2 to come out behind the rear at a 45.

I spent $500 on a bolt-on system that the manufacturer claims fits my vehicle. It didn't.
Went to a local muffer shop and had an exhaust welded in for $400.

Paid $200 plus $46 in shipping from E-Bay. I put it on myself. It fit pretty well, but wasn't as bolt on as they claimed. It's a flowmaster 40 series, 2-1/4 pipes with 3" magnaflow stainless tips. It sounds great. I can't say anything about performance or gas mileage. It feels faster, but that could just be the sound and my brain saying for $246 it better be faster... As for mileage, I haven't been able to keep my foot out of the loud pedal so I haven't seen any gains. I've actually lost a little.

I poster pics and a sound clip in the exhaust sticky on page 5 I think.

See, on my last truck, I paid $300 bucks for everything (got it from the shop and they did everything there). Then I moved to Orlando, and they quoted me $520 to do the same thing,. And then there is a Magnaflow CatBack Bolt system for $626. I was expecting to pay about $300 orso for one, but I guess something changed?
