Arrow Cost of Headers installation in my area; WTF

I have just bought a AW headers

Then I shop around to see how much the labor for the installation is

Meineke $414 --WTF (they said it is a 5 1/2 hours service)
Midas $270
Local body shop $170 - 250
Local Muffler shop $150 - $350

I live in Atlanta

Anyone knows any good and cheap muffler shop around my area?

Please help!!!

IF you can get it for $150, make sure they dont jack that up after the install with them claiming it was a harder than expected job.

Yes, that is true;
I have already brought my car to several shops in Atlanta area

They either said they don't know how to do the V6
or
They want to charge me more after they open my hood or jack up my car

That is sxxk
