Need a little advise. Got an 02 Si w stock exhaust - my resonator on the ground :(, cat conv rusted thru, mufffler done too. otherwise car in overall good shape. Looking at this mag flow kit;

need to replace shields, and engine shield too.

Dealer and muffler shop wants 3000+, and midas 2800 + but as I see it kit is like 6 hundy, and another hundred for misc hangers, gaskets, etc.

What do you all think, should I buy the parts and go to a local muffler shop for install?

Any help appreciated.

Thanks Eric
