300 tops, Sometimes people have paid 200 dollars just for cat work. Muffler install is around 50(from what I've heard) and Tips I can assume another 25-50.

To my knowledge, break in is probably around 75-100 miles basically a few days of driving. And break in, I'm not sure how much louder it gets, but it gets a cleaner tone if that makes sense.

Full break in period for Magnaflows is usually 6,000 miles. The after install break in is usually 500.
