I had a mechanic replace that pipe once, and he is the one that told me about the exhaust system. Oh well, perhaps my memory failed me here. And there is also the extra labor of removing the skid plate for that job. I mentioned it because the original poster said Syncro exhaust parts were so expensive, but I don't remember the pieces being much pricier than the non-Syncro's. I do recall that replacing the whole exhaust system is quite expensive, but I thought that was true for all the Wasserleakers.
