But the second time I changed my exhaust; I had a muffler shop do it for a little over an hour of labor, about $60 bucks.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

4 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

All- Got my B&B exhaust today and am looking for a DIY for some help. Did a quick search and found a website with some good pics, but looking for more step-by-step if anyone has it. A few of you out there have B&B's... What do you think of it? I got mine second-hand barely used, so I went for it. Thanks,

Invest in a Porsche Boxster Bentley Manual. www.amazon.com

POST 3Original post

renntech.org has some good articles... my suggestion is to take the bumper off. Makes things much easier and its only an extra couple of handful of screws.

POST 4Original post

It's about a 2 hour job, and relatively straight forward. But the second time I changed my exhaust; I had a muffler shop do it for a little over an hour of labor, about $60 bucks. Well worth it. And I have to ask; do you really have that name painted on your Porsche??? Or was that a photoshop trick?
