Depends on the rust on your bolts, the quality of the shop, the quality of the exhaust, etc. I'd say 2-3 hours maybe more.

If it just bolts up with no problems like 2 hours max. If they have issues, then longer

2 hours wtf this is a kit that you already purchased right?

if its just a kit you have and your throwing it on

a muffler shop with air tools / a car lift this thing should be on in 1 hour...

unless your getting custom pipes bent ect...

Damn, I was going for the more generous end, cuz as I stated it depends no the shop. But 30 mins is damn quick, I'd love to pay 30 mins labor for an exhaust install. I'm plannin on gettin custom piping though.
