    Cheapest place would be at a fellow TW's house. I'm sure there are members in your area that would gladly help you with the install.

    The install isn't hard but depending on the ones you bought, you may need to do some welding.

    DTLTs are not too hard to install, they can be a bit of a pain if your are FI since you will have alot of crap in the way.

    Find someone near you to help. if you were near me, I would gladly volunteer to halp

    Muffler shops tend to charge an ass load to install headers, and most dont want to touch manifold studs
