Hello,
I got a quote from my local muffler shop for $750.00 for this cat back system and Installation. Is this a good price? How loud is this system? and How do you like it? Any input would be great!!! Thanks

 

15834 - Magnaflow SIDO (Single In/Dual Out) Cat-Back Exhaust System for 2004-2005 Ford F-150 V8 You can install it yourself in about an hour.

NOTE: This price INCLUDES FREE SHIPPING to anywhere in the 48 states! Shipments outside the 48 states will require freight charges that are NOT reflected in your price shown here - please call us at (540) 862-9515 for the exact costs for shipping outside the 48 states.

Price: $479.85

 

Moose...since you can acquire a 15834 for less than $500 ANYWHERE ON THE PLANET (last week, I paid $383 with free delivery...Hottexhaust), that would mean your installer is charging at least $250 for an installation that takes 90 minutes or less. Wow...that's steep!

P.S. The Magnaflow cat-backs, even though straight-thrus, are quiet at idle, no drone in the cab at highway speeds, and mellow (like the 50's glasspaks) under heavy throttle...they won't wake the neighbors in the morning like the ricers do.

 

I would install it myself but I wanna make sure it done right. How much should this cost me for the system and install so I can look around a bit more

 

Well, ya know that $480 is the top retail price for the product, so the question is...what are ya willing to pay for labor, i.e. what is a fair price for installation...only you can determine that as it's your money.

BTW, you'll luv the 18 inch rolled tips that come with the system. They're a work of art...worth $50-75 each in my view.

If y'all do a search (type Magnaflow), you'll find many install comments, photos, etc.

Good luck.

 

“$383 with free delivery...Hottexhaust” I don’t see that anywhere on their web sight. $459.86 and up is what’s listed for the F150 04's

Hottexhaust

 

jp...I ordered the 15834 from them on January 30 within minutes after noting a thread on this forum mentioning the $383.88 price with free shipping...apparently there was a discount offered, perhaps expiring on 1/31 according to one person who posted on the thread. A good deal...give them a call and see if it's still being offered at that price.

 

That’s a killer deal. As soon as I saw your post, I went to their web sight but that price wasn’t there. I’m going to call them as you suggest and see what they say.

 

jpdadeo,

Check out these 2 threads for the coupon information:

Thread 1

Thread 2

If the coupon is still good the price is $384.00 to the door. Hottexhaust, that's where I got mine.

 

jp,
Do a search. There is a coupon number floating around here that will give you that discount when you order the kit. I got mine for $383 also...Kevin

 

I would think that someone would do it for 75 bucks or so...Kevin
The install that is.

 

Thanks kd4crs I found the code. I'm going to give it a try because that's a good price

 

Just for FYI I just ordered the new exhaust from Hootexhaust.com and the model number for Dual Exhaust for production after 06/04 is "16614" $388.83 shipped to door.

 

So, is the following correct? For a dual rear-out Magnaflow SS cat-back system, the order # are:

For pre-June '04 build....15834.

For post-June '04 and '05....16614.

Correct?

 

yes that is correct!!
