Default Stainless Manifold Install

I'm thinking of getting one installed on my 2002 WRX its already got the de cat uppipe, downpipe, full 3" straight through Decat exhaust, induction kit and unichip. i'm just checking if anyone has had one installed and if you guys think its worth it or not? Also how much labour should i expect to pay for a garage to install it?

the job itself sounds easy but even though the car is quite new its the quality of the surfaces of the headers and up pipe that will decide as they could blow and if all the bolts on the turbo come off with out the need to remove it, have you got new gaskets etc..

also forgot to mention wrapping them or getting them ceramic coated? then if to paint them or not? they look really good out the box all shiny but that soon goes

fitting after market headers can be worth another 25+ lbs/ft torque
