I'd say like cam + support install like $600ish. Headers maybe $150-200. $200ish for the suspension stuff. And like $400 for a tune. so you may be a few hundred high, but its not OUT OF THIS WORLD crazy. It also depends alot on how quality a job is getting done...
where abouts in NY are you?

Seems high to me. Why don't you just do it yourself? It is not that hard if you have the basic tools and skills. There are some good write ups on replacing all your items.

Good luck which ever way you go.

If I had the patience or time I might try it but I have neither to be honest. I was qouted several hundred less by a few places but they are farther away. I still think $400-500 saved is worth a 2 hour drive though.

Give Mike at New Era Performance a call. His shop is located in Rochester, NY. Maybe you could make a trip out here. The prices for installation are fairly inexpensive and they do great work.

Big red take it from me if they are a reputable shop i'd go with the higher one if its two hours closer. Look at it this way if you have a problem and have to take it back 1 time you'll have 8 hrs drive time (there and back twice) and maybe a tow bill if your unable to drive the car.
