I am going to guess that if you are able to find a fabricator that has worked on car parts before especially exhaust systems then for a 1 off job I would say in the neighborhood of 5K. Now that would not include an EMS, or software tuning.
WOW! 450 HP from an M42? That guy is my idle. It can make the power although I don't know how good driveability would be.
