I just did mine last night with ViperGTS. It was a pain but we finally got it on. Do it yourself and you will appreciate it more.

?????HELLO?
It takes all of 20 minutes to do it yourself. Just make a quick drive to discount auto or walmart and but some $15-$20 ramps.
Drive up on the ramps.
Disconnect the battery.
Unplug O2 sensors.
Undo 4 nuts on the front, 4 nuts on the back.
Remove stock H pipe.
Remove O2 sensors from stock pipe and put on new pipe.
Put the o/r X up there
Put the front and back nuts back on
Connect the front O2 sensors
Connect the rear O2 sensors with MIL's.
Connect battery.
Enjoy new sound and power.
Simple as that. If you can't do that yourself, you shouldn't be near a Mustang.

Nobody in VA wanted to install mine either, but instead of asking if the "business" could do it i asked the mechanic if he could do it off the record and he did it for cash and in under 20 minutes, i just couldnt say who put it on cause its illegal for them to install one and could get hefty fines, so when i got in trouble for it the officer asked who installed it and i was like me of course, haha good luck.

Yep, in theory that would work. But finding out that you forgot a 1/2" swivel and making a couple trips to Sears for tools, breaking off the rust that was on the car for 7 years, it was a bit of a pain. Now I think it could be done in 45min-1 hour. The install took way less time than getting the old pipe off.

I love the sound. It is amazing, you were right. Fitment was fine after we jiggled things around a little. Just getting the damn old pipe off was a PIA.
