$300!?!?!??

is $300 really what it costs to enlarge the hole for the down pipe on a CAI for the QG's? I went to a shop and they said it's $100 per hour and it would take at least 3 hours....I found another shop that said they could do it for $100 but they said they would bend it larger instead of cutting it....so which is the better deal? any help guys?

BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA....wow...thats crazy. You can just enlarge it yourself. I got a pair of sheet metal cutters, and that did the trick.

I took out my battery and took a hammer to on side of the hole, made it bigger and the cold air fit right in. I would not pay 100 for someone to do that.
