Santro Silencer Kit?

[observer]

How much would a Santro Silencer Kit cost? My car is making loud exhaust noise, there is drop in pickup and FE too. I had been to Hyundai Motor Plaza, they inspected the car. The tail pipe joining a box like thing has become loose at the joint. It cannot be welded, as per HMP. The technician said the whole silencer kit has to be replaced. The quotation is for Rs 6910/-
Is it so expensive? Do I need to replace the whole kit? Should I use any other after market product for better results (product or cost wise)?

Thanks

There are many after market companies who are equally good, the one i fitted on to my zip costed me 2.5K, this is a next quality but has a good guage.
There was one more quality available at 3.5k

Finally replaced the muffler from a local shop. It is some brand called merrit. Replaced the muffler, tail pipe and the mid pipe all for Rs 2100/-
The mechanic was impressed with the quality of the product.

I also had a similar problem in my santro. When checked with HASC, they informed cost INR 7000/- h'ever he suggested to change with local guy as it would cost half that amount.

I checked with local guy who changed their entire silencre assembly for INR 3500/-. The make was "SINGER" with 1 year warrenty. NOw there is no sound. Everything is fine.
