Guys,
I just ordered the Tubi exhaust today from Dave Pittman, (Fast4dr@aol.com), and am expecting it to arrive in three days.
Here's my problem. There is no decent auto shop in Topeka that I'd be comfortable installing the tubi on the M5. There are excellent aftermarket shops in Kansas City, Bob Hindson racing comes to mind, but they're over an hour away and it would be an incredible hassle for me to take the tubi all the way to K.C. just for the installation, mainly because I'd have to get someone to follow me in a pickup with the tubi.
Therefore in light of the hassle involved, would taking the exhaust to the local Midas store be a huge mistake? Normally I wouldn't even think of taking it there but they do obviously install hundreds of exhausts each year and the tubi is supposed to be a very straight forward install, (it apparently uses the same mounting hardware/points as the stock exhaust). I'm trying to balance the convenience of staying in town at Midas since they do install many exhausts versus the hassle of going to Kansas City. Any suggestions; good/bad recommendations or horror stories about Midas would be appreciated.

PS A big thank you to Dave Pittman who arranged a great deal on the Tubi, and who spent a lot of time/effort in supplying pictures/mpegs.
. Just kidding, I'm sure you can find a reputable shop that can do the work, even if you have to drive a little far, it's probably worth it.
