Im in the market for a racing beat exhautst system...i have an 85 base model. When i purchase the system where should i get it installed...at a local muffler shop? or try it myself if i got the skills and tools. what system should i get too? what would be best...i have some cash to spend so dont worry about that.

The exhaust is completely bolt omn, your gonna have to do it yourself, unless you want a cat on it too.. All exhaust shops have to replace the cat with a cat

You're in cali, so you have to do it yourself. Be careful too, I've heard stories of people's own children turning them in to the smog *****. No one is to be trusted when it comes to going cat-free.

It's really easy to do it yourself. It took me maybe 30 minutes to remove the entire exhaust off my 85.

phr34k3z - it was on the car when I got mine, it looks like they used the hole from where the stock rear window spray nozzle was.
I got the part number and brand if you need it
