Default Cost for a custom H pipe

Hey all, Wondering if anyone can tell me a good price range for a custom Hpipe on a 2001. Currently I just have a dual catback of 40 flows and plannig for the shop to cut at the Y and keeping the CATs. Has anyone done this before? And if so, are there any little details that you noticed? Any loss of HP? Is it worth it? Is mineke a reputable place to do it? I just don't want to get jerked around from them with pricing, you know! Thanks

Here it would cost about 100.00.It is not a hard job and should be done in about 45 minutes.Call around for prices and make sure they have done it before.You will loose a little low end power but gain in the mid to upper range.

You don't need an h-pipe. Our engines are even firing, and there are no hp gains from it. A true dual exhaust system is fine.......

I personally like the sound an h pipe gives you but like shinerstang said it won't give you performance.
