I went to Merlins Muffler and Brake and got an estimate. They suggested cutting everything from the resonator back and making a 2.25" (stock is 1.75") exhaust system. It will cost $165 ($145 because i have a coupon). The price is without a muffler because I brought my own in (Flowmaster 40). Is this a reasonable price or if not where should I go? Meineke was too expensive. They were going to replace the pipe just before the muffler and it would cost $150.

Thanks
